I’ve mentioned my brother and sister in law a few times on my blog, so I thought you’d be happy to know that at 12:32 AM on August 20th my niece Isabella Grace was born! She is 6 pounds 1.6 ounces and is 20 inches long! Mom is doing well, and so is Isabella. My brother was on the phone through most of the delivery and was getting text updates. I am keeping the chip in page open for a while longer, if you would like to chip in… http://marcelandmelissa.chipin.com/melissa-and-marcels-baby-shower-fund
Thank you to all of you who have sent your well wishes and support! My brother is set to come home in late September.

Natala — i’m SO excited to have found your blog! I am JUST starting a vegan diet. I have been gluten free/casein free/soy free for several years due to food intolerances, but I now need to tackle high cholesterol and triglycerides. My doctor wants to put me on 3 different name brand cholesterol medications and I refuse to do it. Your site gives me great hope that I can make this transition to a vegan diet and live well and be healthy. I want to be healthy. Like you, I don’t want to follow my family history and be sick for the rest of my life and be miserable. Thank you so much for your words of hope! I look forward to reading your entire site!

Also that one of my favorite places Isabella Stewart Gardner museum has a special “Isabellla” club and your niece can go to the museum for free for life. Was there the other day w/my mom and aunt and was reminded of that…
