Since the KTVB story aired, I've had several people ask what I think about Gavin's public statement, and others reach out to warn me about comments being made on KTVB's Facebook post. I've read it all, so rather than respond individually, I'll address it here.

Wolf was born 16 years ago today on October 8, 2010 at 11:02 am. He was 9 pounds 11 ounces. This morning I would have gone into his room to wake him up by crawling into his bed and singing him the birthday song from “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape” like I’ve done every morning on his birthday.

This weekend has been brutal. I don’t say that because I’m looking for sympathy or replies, but because I want to be honest about this journey.
