Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.....

We hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas and we are looking forward to celebrating the New Year! I tried to think of all of the things that made 2010 a great year for Kyle and we were blessed with so many amazing events. To recap all of the highlights of this year would make for a very long blog post so I will just name a few.

First and most important to me was the clean bill of health Kyle got this year. If you don't know a whole lot about Retinoblastoma and how it all works, Kyle has a gene mutation that puts him in a higher risk of getting a secondary cancer. Not every child with RB has the gene mutation but after genetic testing, they have determined Kyle does. He is checked every 6 months to a year and those appointments are always a bit stressful. We don't live our lives waiting for another cancer to show up but it is in the back of our minds always...I don't think that will ever go away. But for this year, all appointments ended in great news!!

We also had our first TKE golf tournament this year and we raised of $50K dollars for the foundation. It was a very successful event and Kyle shot his first hole in one on this day...what an amazing day! We presented a check to Retinoblastoma International research department for $30K!

Kyle also got to meet Tiger this year and that was a wonderful day for Kyle. He also got to putt around with him and Hunter Mahan and walked 9 holes with them to watch their practice round. Thank you to John Wood for all he made happen that day!

We also just celebrated a great Christmas and Kyle got a magic set that he absolutely LOVES!! You can see his excitement in the photo....

He has been putting on some magic shows for us, he says he needs some practice! HA!

All in all 2010 has been a very exciting year for us. We look forward to what 2011 brings and thank God everyday for the blessings we have received.

Thank you all for the emails, letters and cards that you have sent to Kyle and our family. Thank you to all that have donated to the Through Kyles Eyes Foundation....we are determined to do all we can help others in the battle of Retinoblastoma and to fund the research that works toward finding a cure. It is very important to our family that we make our mark on the world that we will all someday leave behind....we choose to do just that and fight for our children's sight.

God Bless You All and we hope you have a very Happy New Year!
