This is one of my favorite pictures of Madison of all time. It captures the amazing spirit that she embodies. Despite the difficulties she faces with her disease, with illnesses she has battled, with the physical limitations she works at overcoming, she always manages to crack a smile. In this particular case, we took her to the hospital after a really bad seizure, after many hours in the ER, she was admitted and she contracted pneumonia. As a result she had to stay at the hospital a couple more days. This picture was taken during that stay. She is amazing and an inspiration to me.
