this is Jack

Jack with mom and dad
H
E WAS DIAGNOSED with Spinal Muscular Atrophy.
Never heard of it? Neither had I until I was sitting in
the emergency room with my 6-week old, Jack, who
was having breathing problems. After he was diagnosed,
doctors told us he had approximately 3 months to live. Our
world fell apart. How could this happen? How could we say
goodbye to the baby we fell in love with at first sight? We have
never felt so much pain. SMA causes a degeneration of the
Doctors told us Jack would eventually need to be on oxygen 24
hours a day; he would need a feeding tube since he would lose
the ability to swallow. He would also need a suction machine
as well as a machine that would mimic a cough for him.
Knowing that Jack’s care would be very demanding, my
husband and I moved to Colorado from our home in Arizona
to live with my mom.
IT ALL SEEMED SO OVERWHELMING. Each day, my
world revolved around Jack’s care. I was lucky if I got
to shower. I remember the day I got a call from a
woman named Adrienne. She explained that she was
from an organization called, “There With Care.” She
asked me what they could do to help. I will never
forget that feeling, like a little bit of weight had been
lifted. I felt a little hesitant at first. Like other families
may be more in need than us. She assured me that
each family has different needs in many different
circumstances and that they helped each of them in their own
unique way. She asked me to tell her a little bit about our
situation. I couldn’t believe how helpful and thoughtful this
complete stranger was. She explained that they could deliver
food so that we would not have to stress about grocery
shopping. It was like a little bit of my world stopped crumbling
around me. I could focus on my child, I could focus on his
comfort, I could focus on making memories.

motor neurons in the brain stem and spinal cord. The signals
from the neurons to the muscles are lost, and muscles can’t
function. It is a terminal disease that would hinder his ability
to sit up, crawl and walk. Eventually he would be unable to
eat, speak, cough, swallow and even breathe.
We should be able to watch Jack grow up. We should be able
to dream about his future. But instead we were left waiting,
waiting for the inevitable.

Dear There With Care Community,
Not long ago, as I left the office to deliver a bag of goodies to a
patient and his family at the hospital, our coordinator Mary
Beth said, “Take this book, he’ll love it.” When I arrived in the
hospital room there was a little guy fighting cancer…a guy not
too happy to have company.
I quietly reached into the bag and pulled out the book and set it
on the bed. “Mr. Happy,” I read from the cover and held it up.
Justin cracked a smile from ear to ear. I began to read about
how Mr. Happy meets Mr.
Miserable and is determined
to make him happy, too. I
continued reading the book
and each page brought bigger
smiles and soon laughter.
Before long Mom was
laughing, I was laughing,
and most important, Justin
was laughing.
We pulled out some other
treats – Crocs and character
Jibbitz, Legos, and occasionally
returned to Mr. Happy and
soon a few minutes became a

few hours. As I said good-bye
and his family
and headed back to the office, my
heart was melting for this family. I was able to go home and that
wasn’t the case for them. They were facing more tests, more
treatments, and many unknowns.
Several months later, Mary Beth got a text from Mom saying,
“Sit down for this one. The cancer is gone. None, zero,
zip…gone! Justin is officially cancer free. We are elated.”
As the text quickly got passed around, tears were flowing in our
office because we knew what that meant to them. It was the
news they were wishing for. We knew in an instant that Justin
and his mom and dad and sisters were now the “happy” family,
and that it wasn’t a book that brought the smiles this time.
Those of us at There With Care, including our many volunteers,
donors, advisors, and staff, are humbled to be one small chapter
of Justin’s family’s story.
With gratitude,
Paula DuPre’ Pesmen
Executive Director

the magic of care
Every day the phones ring at There With Care with calls from social workers for families who need our help. Every hour we are
reminded how important it is to be able to be there for a family with a critically ill child. In 2012, we will help more than 250
families - more than any other year in our history. We continue to provide this support to each and every family who call on us
through the magic of care that you help us provide.
Did you know that There With Care is able leverage $1 into $4 worth of
products and services for our families? Some of the ways we do this are by
working with food banks and other local and national food resources, and by
collecting gently used baby items. We also partner with local businesses to
provide discounted services such as auto repairs, housecleaning, therapy and
hold diaper drives and many other collaborations. This all works thanks to so
many inspiring people, like you!
Thank you for reaching out into your own communities and engaging your
families, your employers, your book clubs, your co-workers, your neighbors,
your kids, your friends.
So many of you connect the work of There With Care to your communities,
wave your wands and help turn every dollar into four. This magic directly
impacts the services we provide to families.
Amazed. Inspired. Grateful. That's how your generosity makes us feel. Thank
you for being There With Care.

this is Jack
(Continued from page 1)
Our goals were to keep Jack as comfortable as possible and to
cherish the moments with him that we were fortunate to
have. Chris and I decided we had a choice of how we spent
our final weeks or months with our baby boy. We could either
spend every day crying, locked in a room, or we could enjoy
every single moment, making beautiful memories along the
way. We created Jack’s bucket list. It included blowing
bubbles, catching raindrops in the palm of his hand, touching
the grass with his bare feet, finger-painting, going to the
aquarium and the zoo, swinging in a park, and making a snow
angel. We were determined to have the short time we had
together be filled with love and true living.
Over the months, Adrienne became much more than a
stranger. She let me know that we could receive meals donated
from a local restaurant, 4580. Since Jack had to travel with so
much equipment, going out to a restaurant was very difficult.
Having a special meal one night a week uplifted our spirits.
AS THE HOLIDAYS APPROACHED, Jack was getting worse
and was having a lot of trouble breathing and digesting food.
Adrienne called our family to ask us if we would like
Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner delivered. We hadn’t even
thought about the holidays. She explained that they had
volunteers who donated presents to families in the There With
Care community.
Our family decided to celebrate Christmas early. We bought
Jack some reindeer pajamas and a few small presents. The next
morning we all stayed in our pajamas, opening presents with
our baby.
Jack took his last breath in my arms at just 6 ½ months old,
two days before Christmas. That night, there was a knock at
the door. It was one of the There With Care volunteers with our
Christmas gifts and dinner. We opened the gifts that were
meant for Jack on Christmas Eve. They were so thoughtful to
think of him.
Jack is the strongest person I know. Not a day goes by that I
don’t think of him and the love he gave us. He has touched so
many lives in his little time here. Having Jack has taught Chris
and me that moments are made to be forever memories and
that life is too fragile to not enjoy to the fullest.
We love our baby more than we ever thought we could and
wish nothing more than to have him with us here today. We are
forever grateful for this amazing organization that brought a
little sunshine into our world when we needed it most.

Honoring
Our Volunteers
T
here With Care supplements the food that is
delivered by volunteers to families with the
help of Team Chop, Team Bake and so many
others in our community.
Some of the key ways food quality is improved comes
through weekly donations from Door to Door
Organics and Growing Gardens. The produce is
collected and taken to an industrial kitchen where
Team Leader Cheryl Markel and the amazing
volunteers of Team Chop prepare, bag and label
nutritious meals that can easily be reheated by a
Some of Team Chop and Team Bake Volunteers – Baking with Care
family after long days in the hospital. The volunteers
of Team Bake collect frozen bananas and other delicious foods and regularly bake breads and other items that accompany grocery deliveries.
Rudi’s Bakery, Whole Foods, Chipotle and Starbucks donate food so that each family receives breads and baked goods on a weekly basis.
Catering by Piyanad prepares and donates a portion towards frozen meals that easily heat up, which are needed by families who are in a critical
phase of illness with their children. These fresh and nutritious foods are delivered weekly to families by volunteers who personally shop for
them and arrive at their door with groceries, and with care.
