Sharing the News



Let me start with giving you some background information on Jason’s current training. The trainers have extremely high expectations, as they should. The trainees basically do not have a life while they’re here, which is also totally understandable. To continue training here and advancing it all has to do with how many patients you schedule to come in for an initial visit and how many people you convert into patients. It’s pretty serious stuff, so Jason and I have always thought that he should stay here as long as possible before delivery.

Jason and I sat down with the 3 ML trainers to give them the update on our little Alexander. We explained our initial plan of delivering in Philadelphia and that Ana and I would travel up weeks before Jason so that he could train as long as possible. The trainers basically said Jason staying was absolutely not necessary. They said that Jason is doing great and that right now we need be together as a family. Wow! No offense to these trainers but the overwhelming amount of support was not what either of us was expecting. We talked to them a little more in depth about Alexander’s prognosis and what we have been going through. I commented it that we wouldn’t be able to do it without our faith. The co-founder of ML responded very simply “believing in God and having faith is very different than putting it into action.” Wow, what a wonderful complement.
