I have a friend, Kashmir, who has Edwards syndrome and her mom,Spiko, has had to fight for her life a LOT. If you are here you probably know the story. My mom figured that it might help her mom if Spiko knew just how many lives Kashmir has already changed for the better as it gets hard on Spiko at times just like life does for all of us!!! In order to do this mom needs everyone that has had their lives touched to sign this guest book and tell how they are better for knowing Kashmir!!! My mom and I both thank you for your help from the bottom of our hearts!!!

The new Spiko, Kash, and family website!!! In 2004 mom found out that Kash died right before her 5th birthday in 2002. Spiko know that we still care for you and will always remember Kashmir.

My mom wrote this poem specifically for Kashmir. Why did you come So pretty and frail? Why not strong Like others have come? You struggle so hard Your life just to live. It makes me wonder Why you still live. Many would have given up So very long ago. But not you You hang in no matter what it takes. While others give up You hang in and fight. You show them that It was their mistake. Though tubes and wires keep you going They hurt as much as they gain But little complaint you make. I see you and I ask why Why was she not made strong? Then I seem to hear you say To touch the lives of others. To teach them to see and pray And believe in miracles And that impossible things Are possible!! If just one I have taught this And just one more I reach Then I'll live my life to do just that To teach them to believe. Do YOU believe in miracles? Do you believe in prayer? Then look on me for you see I am a miracle and answer to prayers!!! Spread the word So that others can see Just what a prayer can do And believe in miracles, too!!!
