He remained awake throughout the majority of the visit. This is unusual for him. As Nancy tried to feed him his dinner he made it quite clear he did not wish to eat what was prepared for dinner. Nancy said, “Watch this!” “Pops. Do you want some ice cream?” she asked. He nodded in agreement and opened his mouth like a small child as the ice cream covered spoon approached his waiting mouth.
We wheeled him in his chair outside to enjoy the slight breezes and last hour of Spring sunlight, I looked at Paul and caught him staring at me. Was he really staring at me? What was he thinking? I recall that look when I would periodically receive that look from my grandmother. She was also diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

Buffalo MAW 2009 Gala Promo from Clear Star Media on Vimeo.

REACH FOR THE STARS GALA 2009!

Last year's SOLD OUT event raised over $571,000 for our local Chapter.

Be sure to reserve your sponsorship NOW for our REACH FOR THE STARS Creative Black Tie Gala Presented by Counsel Financial Saturday, April 4, 2009 Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel in Niagara Falls, USA.

"Welcome to Wish.org, the online home of the nation’s largest wish-granting organization. Since 1980, the Make-A-Wish Foundation® has given hope, strength and joy to children with life-threatening medical conditions. From our humble beginnings with one boy’s wish to be a police officer, we’ve evolved into an organization that grants a child’s wish in the U.S. every 40 minutes."

As a Western New York based wedding photographer I am proud to be associated with Make-A-Wish. I am honored by their request to photograph their upcoming gala. Several months ago I was introduced to Make-A-Wish by a friend. I truly enjoyed working with the organization and love their mission. Recently I was asked to photograph their 2009 "Reach for the Stars" Gala on April 4, 2009. There was no thought necessary. I look forward to donating my time and documenting this wonderful event and sharing it with the world.

Please make a donation to this wonderful organization and help Make-A-Wish make a wish come true!
