Samsmom: Life, Joy, Loss and Loving your Mitochondria

Here it is…..

Our Miracles for Mito logo.

Thanks to our buddy Luke Wennik, our graphic designer who has volunteered his time, talent and gave us this logo.

Thanks to my ‘sister’ and new Mito President, Laura who brought us Luke and is keeping us all focused.

We chose the butterfly because it evolves from a catepillar to a butterfly, the way we have all evolved from this disease. We also chose the butterfly because it moves through the air, the wind, it floats between the ground and the sky….it is really not a part of the earth we walk on and everytime I see a butterfly, I think of Samantha.

The butterfly is made up of two hearts.

Because she is always in our hearts.

And because it was her tiny heart that gave out.

The squiggly in the middle of the butterfly is the mitochondria. The reason for this whole foundation.

I love it.

It makes me proud every, single time I look at it.
