katilynn was born may31,2001 and she was sick from day one we had know ideal when i was pregent that anything was wrong with her.when she was born the blood vessels to her heart and lungs were closed and she stayed in the nicu in uk hospital in lexington ky.she was there for 23 days and was on life support for 2 weeks.she came home from uk on june 23 2001 and she was in and out of the hospital she had pneumonia 4 times in one year and rsv and also the roto virus.she had recurring ear infeaction alot.katilynn also had the place onher back that the doctors couldnt figure out what it was.so on katilynns 24 month check up at uk hospital they told us that katilynn had something geneticly wrong with her but they just couldnt put there finger on it so they made us appointment with a genetic doctor in pikeville ky on august 15,2003 i took katilynn to her appointment and dr hall took one look at katilynn and said katilynn had hurlers syndrome he didnt even do blood work that was how sure he was.he told me and my friends that went with me that katilynn was going to die and that i better spend what time we had with her while we can. he gave me a book on hurlers syndrome and said that he was sorry.my husband had to work that day and couldnt go with us.so i cryed all they way home and wondering how i was going to go home and tell him that his baby was going to die its was the worse day of my life.we cryed and screamed and didnt know if katilynn was going to die tomorrow we were so scared we didnt know what to do.the genetic doctor made us a appointment in cincinnati to have blood work done to confrim what he said was true.we made the trip to cincinnati in september and they said it would take 2 weeks for the test to come back so we tryed to prepare our selfs for the worsed so when the call came that katilynn had hurlers it wasnt a big shock and they made us appointment to see the genetic dr.the dr name was dr leslie we meet her and she told us about the enzyme replacement treatment and what wonderful things that it had been doing so far we couldnt wait for katilynn to get her treatment started.katilynn took her first treatment october 31,2003 katilynn was already in the hospital she had her tonsill and adenoides took out and tubes put in her ears so she already had a iv in so it was easier to do that.the treatment went well and didnt seem to borther her any at all.katilynn has to take her enzyme treatment every 2 weeks for the rest of her life.she had another treatment about a week and half ago and that went well also the doctor said that the next treatment katilynn might have a reaction to it most kids do.she has had so much energy since she has been taking her treatmnet and has started to eat more and has gained 2pounds in a couple of weeks she said at the 24 pound mark seems like for every and now she is over 26 pounds hurray for katilynn.her favorite thing is hershey bars and reese cups lol.she loves barney and sponage bob.her favorite songs are wheels on the bus andany thing that barney and sponage bob sings.katilynn has 2 older brothers eric is 14 and justin is 10 and they make her mean and she really loves her bubbas.she will go back for her next treatment friday so hope every thing goes well i will update how she is doing from time to time.

hello everyone how is everyones saturday?well we just got home today yes can u belive it just today we have had a long couple of days some good and some bad but any way lets get to it.we arrived in cincinnati wednesday around 3 or 4 and i drove there getting there was the easy part.looking for the motel that we were supposed to stay in was the hard part well lets put it this way we didnt find it even with direactions that i copyed from the internet laugh at me.well ronald mcdonald house didnt have any rooms so we stayed at the hotel of the hospital and they had 1 room with 1 bed and 5 of us and you add all of that together and what do you get lol trouble so any way we got a roll away bed for the boys and you are only aloud 1 roll away bed to a room this was kind of funny if u have ever seen my boys because eric who is 14 and 5"9 and 150 pounds and justin who short and a little fat in a roll away bed was just down right funny.ok that was just the beginnig ok thursday morning katilynn had to be at the hospital at 10 for a video swallow which went very well and the it was snowing all day and we didnt want to have to go to the motel room and then get back out so we stayed at the hospital till her other appointment at 3:40 and we got a little lucky we got in around 2:00 so that was good well katilynns heart doctor was so surprised how katilynn was doing he said it was the difference in night and day how much better she was and i ask her heart doctor about katilynn getting the flu shot and he said guess what i have one more left and we decide to give it to her they said she would be better off with it then the flu so she gets that we go back to the motel room and wait till friday morning to get her infushion so we get there about 7:30 and wait till 9 before they finally get started well every thing was going good till about about 12 when katilynn woke up from her nap and she was just so sick that it really scared me to death i had never seen her like that before she was shaking all over you could hardly hold her she was shaking so bad and she was a pale a ghost and she just started throwing up everywhere so she got half of her treatment and they had to stop it her temp went up to 101 and that was scary well katilynns doctor didnt think it was from the treatment but thought it was best to stop it any way and dr leslie decide to keep her in the hospital over night to make sure so now we are thing that it was either the flu shot or the flu.well we stayed at the hospital over night it was all 5 of us in there.the hospital started not to let the boys stay there with us because of the flu out break but we promised that they wouldnt get out of the room for nothing so they let them stay.katilynn was lying in bed watching tv and then she decide to hit the nurses button and i told bill to go over to the wall and hit cancel button and we had the lights out and he hit the alarm button for cold blue and all the nurse was running to our room boy was my face red lol.well any way katilynn decide to eat last night and she had a good night sleep and they decide to let her come home today.so we are home and safe and warm thank goodness well i guess i have made u all laugh so my time is done here well update again soon you all have a merry christmas

hello everyone i just wanted to stop and write a few lines not to much to report i guess that is a good thing.katilynn is doing good knock on wood runing around everywhere.i have a thank you that i would like to say to mary she is a cousin of mine that fixed katilynn a beautiful web page that i cant belive how beautiful it is mary we cant thank you enough for that.we have add a few hurlers children for now and we would love for everyone to go by the web site and look around and let us know how you like it the web page is http://katilynn.truecountry.com/index.html we had the funeral today i didnt get to go because it was so cold and i try to keep katilynn in a much as possible so that she wont take the flu or anything i dont want her to miss any of her treatments not unless it is a half to case.we want to thank everyone for the prayers this week with the losses in our family and just to thank everyone for all the prayers for our family.we could never get to many prayers.we are just lucky to have people out there that talk with us and just to listen when we need to talk because without people like you all we would go crazy.i know there is times that i sit and think about what is going to happen next or why this is happing to us and i find myself looking at hurlers syndrome sites and sit in front of this computer all night long and cry by myself because i dont want to let my husband see me that way and make him worry more than he already does.he thinks the sun rises and sits on katilynn.which everyone that meets katilynn thinks that.but if we didnt have hurler friends that know what we are going through and take the time to ask us and to listen when we need it we would go crazy.i cant thank you all enough.everyone that stops by and signs katilynns book just makes me smile knowing that there are people out there that still do care about others.well everyone i said i was only going to write a few lines but i got carried away.well everyone have a nice weekend and i will update again soon katilynns next treatment is feb 9 so i will let everyone know how it went.we love each and everyone of you all.you all seem like family to us.

hello everyone i thought i would write a little bit tonight.katilynn is sick again i took her to the er sunday night and she has running nose and sneezing and coughing.i swear it never fells the week before she goes for her treatment she gets sick me and her dad were talking i think its that her systems isnt as stong the week before her treatment and she gets sick easier.i took her back to her doctor today and we waited in his office for 2 1/2 hours for him to tell me to keep giving her the meds that they gave her in the er.how funny is that.well had katilynns 6 months meeting for theraphy yesterday and they want her to start school in august because her therphy will stop at home so we have a meeting tuesday the 10th at school to go visit i think after she gets used to it she will like it but i also told them that i dont think katilynn will be potty trained by then and they said it was against the law to tell me that katilynn counldnt go to school because she still in diapers.so i guess we will try it.they said katilynn will be getting a new theripist and they said that he was hard on the kids he exepts them to do everything that he tells them to do .i let them know a head of time that he isnt going to make katilynn cry she goes through enough already and katilynn is the type that its her way or no way lol i know that she needs this stuff but im not going to sit by and let him scary her to death either.they told me he dont have kids himself so whats that tell u.but u i guess we will just have to wait and see.well guys i will update again soon have a good weekend

we had a great trip this time.katilynn didnt get sick this week before her treatment like u does all the time.but she did good till we got half way and she wanted a bottle and i just couldnt let her lay there without anything so i gave it to her so then she throw up but that was about it.when her treatment was over i put her shoes on and she said lets go lol she just walked out the door and down the hall it was so funny.she laughed and just running all over the place when we were leaving.the trip home was good not to much traffic on the roads.i am telling you they dont get katilynns treatments started till late.we get there at 8 and the last 2 times it has been 10:30 or 11:00 before they get started and then it takes 4 hours for the treatment and then we have to stay hour after words to make sure katilynn is ok then it takes us 3 to 4 hours to get home so we are so tried from the hospital stay and the drive we are wore out all week and bill gets up the next morning and goes to work i just dont see how he does it but he knows if he dont work we dont have much money coming in anyway so i guess he does what has to be done.but anyways i hope everyone had a great weekend.my granny came home from the hospital friday and had to go back saturday night and she seems to be doing some what better but she dont know alot at times so that might be from the stroke.the doctors might let her come home tomorrow.baby evline will be in cincinnati march 8th when we are there to cant wait to meet her and her family.i hope everything goes well for them.well goodnight everyone and have a safe and happy week and i will update soon.love and hugs and kisses kathy and katilynn

DEAR SWEET KATILYNN MOM AND DAD WISHES YOU THE VERY BEST CHRISTMAS EVER.BUT WE ALREADY NEW THAT CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN WOULD BE THE BEST AND YOU GET TO SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JESUS WHAT A WONDERFUL TIME YOU WILL HAVE JUST KNOW THAT ONE DAY SOON WE WILL GET TO BE WITH YOU AND I CANT WAIT BABY WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH HUGS MOM AND DAD AND YOUR BROTHERS The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
But one special stocking was no longer there
All that was left were the memories bittersweet
Of a life that had ended so incomplete

The family had pictures all gathered around
That sometimes made all of them tear up and frown
For the sorrow and sadness without their sweet child
Made it difficult for the whole family to smile

Although there were times when they felt katilynn
As if they were feeling some kind of a ghost
The signs that were sent were so special and clear
That they felt that katilynn was very near

They often would talk to him(her)as if she there
Sometimes they would smile but also shed tears
For each Christmas that came, brought with it such pain
That they felt in their hearts would always remain

Then one special moment on one special day
she came and got them and took them away
To fly through the heavens and up to the stars
A beautiful place that was not very far

(She) showed them where they would all join once again
A place full of beauty, no sorrow or pain
A place where (she's)happy with heavenly friends
A place where we too will also ascend

They had a big feast that was fit for a king
There was music and stories... and many did sing
It glistened with color... a prism of light
Heaven was such a wonderful sight

After the families visit was through
They no longer felt so terribly blue
For they finally realized one day not to far....
They would all be together on a heavenly star

Calling all the angels--
It's a special day today!
For katilynns turning seven year old!
Here's what she has to say:
"Mommy, please dry all your tears;
I know you miss me so.
And if it had been up to me,
I'd never have chosen to go."
"For I knew that you would miss me
And the things that we could do,
And I wish I could have stayed on earth
And lived down there with you."
"But, Mommy, now I'm well and whole;
I sing and play all day
With all the angel boys and girls
Who've come to heaven to stay."
"Lord Jesus holds us in His arms
And tells us of His love;
He knew that we were hurting--
That's why we came above."

"I love you, Mommy, every day;
I send you kisses, too.
And some day you will join me here
And I'll always be with you."
"I've got to go--the party's on!
We'll sing and dance and play.
But I am always in your heart
And never far away."
"Please find a way to celebrate,
Even if you cry;
Perhaps you'll send me some balloons
Soaring to the sky."
"And I will know they came from you,
And I'll be flying near.
I send you love and kisses, too.
I love you, Mommy, dear."
