“My dad has been there all the time for me even during my transplant. One time, they were drawing blood and he fainted. When he told me that, I was 9 and I laughed so hard. He likes to go scuba diving in Mexico and is a big fan of sharks. One time he asked a shark whether he should marry my mom and the shark nodded it’s head, yes. We have been to many Boston sports games together, even for the 100th anniversary of Fenway Park. Before the game he brought me and my sister to his office and unfortunately it was so boring. My dad works for Boston Children’s Hospital. He wrote Andy and Sofia, the book with Kate Kruschwitz who works with him. Thank you for everything! You are the Greatest dad in the world.” Andy

“I love Dad. My dad my hero. You inspire me every single day. Dear dad from day one I knew you were going to be the best dad ever! I love when we play catch and go on the trampoline together. Here are some coupons from Sofia: play catch together, skate board together, go on trampoline together, go on a walk together. These never expire.” Sofia
