Teagan Klingenberg | 2007 Honored Hero

On February 21st 2007, at 20-Months old our Daughter Teagan was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), which was to date the worst day in our lives. She was immediately hospitalized at the Children’s Hospital at Albany Medical Center - "Club AMC", as we called it, to begin her chemotherapy treatments. Over the next year, we lived in a "fog" and prayed daily that we would come through this with a happy outcome.

Update

Teagan is now a completly healthy, headstrong, active and very busy pre-schooler, who continues to develop her individuality. She is the center of our lives, and each day with her is a joy and adventure. She makes our family complete, and the thoughts of having almost lost her still gives us a chill up our spines.

Teagan is currently attending pre-school at the Clover Patch Pre-School in Burnt Hills where she is able to get all her necesarry services and interact with her friends, teachers and therapists.

In September 2008, she along with her brothers (and parents of course) went to Jamaica for her Make-A-Wish trip. She was able to spend a wonderful 8-days with her favorite "friends"... Elmo and other characters from Sesame Place.
