This is a short video I put together from the 5K I ran last weekend hosted by Children's National. I ran this race in honor of my son Liam and as a way to share our appreciation to everyone who has been following his journey over the past two months.❤️  #LiamStrong #Grateful https://youtu.be/xqeTP4FsJ74

We've had daily follow-up appointments with Liam's amazing care team since getting home from the hospital.
