Sophia, You are one of a kind (the best kind!) You look at life through the eyes of an optimist, you have always accepted people for themselves, you are so caring and giving. I am very proud of the person you are - and blessed to be your grandmother! I love you most! xoxo grandma

Sophie, I read your article and even though I've never met you, I feel I know you a little bit. I'm a friend of your grandma Joanne. She's always told me what an amazing kid you were. Now I believe you are even more awesome because of your attitude through your dads fight with ALS. Like you said "life is not perfect", but I would say you & the love your family shares IS perfect!! You are an amazing young lady now. Keep finding the good things in life! XO Betsy
