Max's Coming Home CELEBRATION!!!

With much hope and faith (and LOTS of excitement!!!), we are emotionally, mentally and physically preparing for Max's arrival at home. (I am hoping we have a tentative date as of this week!) It will be the most amazing (and scary) day of my life...truly!

He has certainly proved worthy of his name, MIGHTY MAX! He is sooo incredible! (This morning I swear he almost smiled...he had such a joyous look about him...maybe he knows today is ICU graduation day!!!)

Since many of you live far, far away (around the world even!) and we are limiting his visitors anyway, I thought it would be fun to find a way to have everyone...near and far...join in on the "Max's Coming Home CELEBRATION!"

For everyone (friends, family and strangers too!) who reads this blog and is an admirer of Max's strength and spirit, please send a welcome home letter to:

Maxwell McKinley
3204 Illinois Lane
Bellingham, WA 98226

Or if you prefer, you can send an email to amysmckinley@aol.com.

His beautiful baby room will be filled with your letters of love and support! How wonderful would that be!?!?

If you don't personally know us but have kept Max in your thoughts and prayers, PLEASE send a note...the fact that you don't even know us but care so deeply about my lil' boy is amazing and I want you to share in this joyous occasion!!!

Thanks everyone! I think the positive energy for Max will be incredible and will add much joy and love to our Coming Home CELEBRATION!

Amy, that is absolutely wonderful news! I'm so happy for you to finally get to have your baby boy home. Barney and Shakespeare must be thrilled too.

Give Mighty Max hugs and kisses from Steph and I.

Love,
Drew

Griffin and I will get our pens a going very, very soon. We can't wait to hear the news that he is in his sweet bedroom with his mommy and his two wonderful dogs. My joy for the two of you is bubbling over. What a great Christmas it's going to be!
