Ten Fingers Are Overrated


Today I am sporting the lovely shirt by the Lucky Fin Project! 


I figured that since my husband got asked so many times what it meant that I would wear mine as I ran all my errands today and guess what!? Someone asked me what my shirt meant! I was sitting at the bank and while waiting this man was sitting across from me and said "So I have to ask, what does your shirt mean?" And I got to share! I got to tell him how Jude was born with ABS and what it exactly meant! He then proceeded to ask if doctors could help and what we were going to do and again, I got to share more of my story! Told him that Jude will be perfectly fine because he has his pointer finger and thumb and then he has all the bones in his foot so there wont be anything he can't do.

All because of this shirt I was able to have a conversation and educate one more person on what ABS is. Not only that but I got to hear about his family and all about his 2 grandkids. This shirt started a conversation that then led to another person asking and joining into our talk about ABS and kids and grandkids. It was such a great little wait at the bank! It was probably no longer than 15 minutes but it made me happy to know that Jude's story is getting out there!

Not only that but he woke up from his nap and was all smiles and so happy! He showed everyone there that nothing was going to stop him!


Have a blessed day!
