      We are so grateful to everyone who has donated to make this trip a reality. Francie's had a hard life living with PWS and we've all learned to live with it one way or another over the years. She's 40 now and her struggles have lessened with the help of a new medical plan that has reduced her anxiety and extreme swings of temperament. We are so grateful to the team that has supported her during this transition and especially to the staff at Community Connections. We can't express our gratitude enough. To our family and friends - you are the best! Always and forever.

      Linda
