"Thanks-Giving" tribute to All our PCH Friends!










































To ALL of YOU (including the many we don't have pictures of) & all who have given support to Phoenix Children's Hospital. What a phenomenal Institution for the wellness of children! Also, to everyone in Show Low, EMT's, ER staff, Flight Crew etc. We Thank You & Ask for Bounteous Blessings to be poured out upon you & your family & loved ones now & Forever!!! Our Holiday Season will be one beyond compare thanks to your inspiration, talent, gifts, expertise, skill, compassion, dedication & care that was performed for Callie & our whole family!
In the first moments after the accident, Callie wasn't breathing & I held her not knowing if she would ever breathe again, with our 4 year old looking on astonished by all the "blood in Callie's nose" & everywhere. Then the miracle of her beginning to breathe, but not knowing if she would live long enough for her Dad to hold her again.
To lay in a Coma for
days & days
not to make a sound for weeks. . .
then to be able to walk out of the hospital talking, a day short of 2 months, is far more than we could have ever imagined!


With deepest gratitude.
Our lives are changed forever & we are blessed, for this we will love you forever!

The Butler Family
Jeff, Dana, Justin, Alisha, Matt, Ashley, Jamison, Monica, Micah, Amber, Marcus, Elsie, Burke, Emma, Haley, Hayden, Brinley, Callie & nephews Gage, Trenton, Garrett & Aiden, not to leave out our Angel Rhionna

(next our special family & friends!)


Happy Thanksgiving to ALL!!!
