We were blessed to welcome our second grandson on April 15,2023.
John Christopher Waltke, affectionately called "Johnny" or "JC" as my
friend likes to refer to him!
With such blessings sometimes there also comes the unexpected
challenges. Johnny was born with Cystic Fibrosis.
He and his family Anna, Scott and Patrick Waltke have faced his
diagnosis with unbelievable strength, grace, faith and fortitude.
Following infertility challenges and many hurdles along the journey
he was their gift! When Anna told us of his diagnosis she said,
"against all the odds we faced I really believe God intended me to be
his Mom."
On May 11th, we will walk in our first "Great Strides" walk to raise
money for the foundation and research for a cure. All are welcome
to join us. We ask if you would be willing to make a donation for
"Jammin for Johnny" we would be so grateful. He is such a little
fighter and we believe someday in the near future they will find a
cure for this disease. Thank you!
Much love to you and your family,
Scott and Jane Ferber
