Louie's First Visit to his only Great Great Grandma!

Today we were able to take Louie to see his Great, Great, Grandma Lois Parry for the first time. Louie is her 7th great great grandchild. Lois Parry is my dad's mom or my grandma. She is the only grandparent I have left alive. She has suffered with an auto-immune disease, rheumatoid arthritis since she was in her forties and still continues to endure it into her 90's. She is such an amazing example of strength, perseverance, and determination. A year ago she was diagnosed with colon caner and still continues to defy the odds.

She has continued living alone in her home and still pushing through her many health challenges. A few months ago, while at home,  she fell and broken her hip. Due to her age they were unable do to any type of surgery. She is now living in a care center as she needs 24 hour care but still continues to stay up-beat and patient through all of her challenges.

I look up to and admire all the courage it takes to endure what she has been required to endure.

We took these pics with Baby Louie today. She was absolutely in love with this little guy! You can see it on her face. She loved our visit and we loved sharing baby Louie and Irealnd with her!
