I was given a beautiful gift today. After a late night DJ'ing a wedding the night before, my alarm went off early this morning for the Schwartz Center 5K. I was excited to go, but admittedly a little sleepy after not getting to bed until about 1:30am. I dragged my butt out of bed, and was rewarded handsomely for it. When Christine and I walked up to Aiden and his mom Melissa...he TOTALLY recognized us...and even said "Michael Rock". I had never heard him talk before...never mind say my name! I was touched beyond belief. One of the best feelings I've ever experienced. This is a direct link to the tireless work that is being done at The Schwartz Center.

A big thank you to Cardi's and EVERYONE who walked. If you couldn't and you want to help out, think about donating with the button below. With your support of this amazing facility, you help make these types of moments possible. THANK YOU!
