      Happy birthday Zoe!

      I wasn't around 6 years ago but I've gotten a sense of what astonishing support this group can provide when one of it's members is in trouble. It's really remarkable. I'm so glad this group was here for you Kris, and continues to be here for all of us.

          I love you babe. You are amazing. It's hard to believe its been 6 - actually 7! - years since your diagnosis. I'm SO glad you are still with us. The world needs more people like you.

                I'm half tempted to go into an ugly cry.

                Love you truly, madly, deeply.

                  Kris - You are amazing! You have taught me that by sharing more of myself (which does not come easy), I will get so much more in return. You are so generous in letting others in, making yourself vulnerable in doing so. I saw the pics on FB and they just brought me joy. I love that you are carrying on the tradition of taking Zoe to the NICU!

                    Thank YOU for creating a safe space of stability in the uncertainty of medical life and training. There is no place like this!
                    Happy 6th birthday, Zoe!

                    Cheers and blessings to you and your family, Kris - you are an inspiration.

                        When I'm telling my husband about something on the boards and you are involved, it's always, "You know, they lady you met at Pei Wei who's done this and this and this and went through all of that and has 5 kids and started this website and..."

                        You're amazing!

                          We really appreciate all that you've done for us and the community you have built here.

                            Wow, it just doesn't seem like time has passed that fast! Yet, I remember being a resident's spouse when I first "met" you. Happy Birthday Zoe and THANK YOU Kris - if it wasn't for this site, I think all those years would have passed much slower...painfully slower.
                            Finally - we are finished with training! Hello real world!!
