March 18th - We are so very blessed to welcome a healthy
Benjamin William Gerhart into the world Saturday, March 17th at 2:18pm.
Yes, a St. Patrick's Day baby and WE are so very Lucky!! He was 7lbs 13oz and was 21 1/4 inches long. He has dark hair and big blue eyes. Mom is going well; she was such a trooper during the whole labor and delivery. Great job Mom! Dad was right there helping in anyway he could. Dad even got to change the first diaper (of course, one of many more to come!).
Ben coming into the world only solidifies for me that I have to be here to guide him (as a grandparent) through his journey through life so I have to beat this horrible disease called cancer.
This brings a greater importance for my recovery which is and always will be going forward my number one priority.
Ben will need his Grandma here to spoil him, of course!
Here is Benjamin William Gerhart (aka Ben).
