We did it! We did it! We really, really did it!!

 I still have to pinch myself because it hasn’t sunk in yet… thanks to your generosity, the $3,000 goal for Charlie’s medical fund was reached!

Last week the fundraiser for Charlie was held at Commonwealth On Queen (301 N. Queen St.).  We had a silent auction (see some of the items below), t-shirts, and books written by me for sale.  BUT, most importantly, the famous Charlie was there to meet and greet! 

He was completely exhausted from all the love by the end of the night (and my cheeks hurt from smiling so much)!  We saw many familiar faces but also had a wonderful time meeting some new people.  We are feeling very loved.

Charlie’s surgery is scheduled for the first week in August up at UPenn with their awesome staff.  But, before we have the surgery Charlie is going to go do some rehab locally to build up his muscles and exercise with less stress on his joints- he’ll be doing aqua therapy and acupuncture!  I’ve personally experienced both of those and know how relieving they can be so I am excited that Charlie can get that kind of treatment.

Stay tuned for more updates on his progress and THANK YOU for the support.  Charlie is truly blessed.
