Thanks, Pat. They will continue to do laser treatments on our grandson, James, until they stop helping him. I guess there is a point where they no longer do anything for him.
Grandson has Sturge-Weber Syndrome. It is a very complicated "disease". He will always have issues. He also has Klippel Tournounay...not sure of the spelling. Both of these are very rare and to have BOTH is extremely rare.
Thanks for asking. 9/14/13

I envy you Rose- what a great trip you had--pictures are great also...Hope your grandson gets better soon- how many more treatments does he need?

Thanks, Cin.
I am so glad that you took a peek at all my pictures. Sure glad that you enjoyed it. It was fun going and fun putting this "recipe" together. I sure hope others take a look like you did! I was so excited to find The Viking Store and to be able to take the pictures.

Thank you to all the nice people at The Viking Store for showing us around and for allowing us to take pictures. Was great to be there.
