Shout Out to my Hommies

I wanted to give a huge thanks to all the friends and family who have come forward to support my family and I through this unfortunate circumstance. You've all been so great not just to me, but to my wife (who will need just as much support as I will) and to our extended families both in Las Vegas and Dallas. We love you and sincerely thank you for all the calls, emails, texts and gifts.

This is a disease that Autumn and I, my parents, my mother in Vegas and sisters will be going through together. We will all continue to need your support and I thank you in advanced for the help. We're all sad, scared and every bit helps so keep doing whatever you've been doing; it means so much to us.

On a lighter note, the images I've posted are from two sets of friends that sent us cupcakes that I thought you'd all enjoy; As some of you may know, Autumn is quite a cupcake aficionado and I'll eat everything. The top picture is a package from Florida but baked and delivered in Boston sent by La La Linda and Scotty P, and the bottom picture is from Sprinkles of Los Angeles, baked on the west coast and FedEx'd by Tunafish and Prilsy Smalls. We absolutely loved (and are still lovin') both sets of cupcakes, but as you can see I don't think FedEx honestly observed the "This Side Up" sign on the box. Thank you all again!
Today was the first day this week that I didn't have any tests! What a relief! All the parents have left so Autumn and I have a quiet house again to digest everything. I caught up on ALL my emails (I think) so you'll all have to send more. Tests start up again tomorrow, an echo-cardiogram of the heart which should be cool.

  7. Hey Jeff! I am so new to this blogging thing I have no idea how my name will appear so in case it DOESN'T say darrenssisternickimackoff (haha, obviously it doesn't!), it's Nicki Mackoff, Darren's sister :) You are so strong and positive and simply charming the way you write you bring tears to my eyes. I'll be following you every step of the way and thinking of you, Autumn, and your families a ton. Sending you a massive squeeze from Vancouver, Jeff! XOXOX
