Hi Christine-
It's Trevor's mom from your days of teaching at Valhalla. I was searching for you earlier today on FaceBook and came up with the RaisingMarioTwice.com website. I just saw your video on the site about walking in love and the amazing effect love can have on life's outcomes. I am amazed by Mario and all you and your husband have done-those slide show photos are inspirational!
I am elated that you've written a book chronicling all that's happened. I will be ordering a few copies for my family for Christmas! I wanted to leave you a comment, however, and say "hi". I am so glad Mario appears to be making amazing strides and continues to thrive thanks to the love and help surrounding him!
I am going to see if I can search you out on FaceBook now....so great to find you on this site and learn about your book! What a story-I look forward to reading the entire book.
Trevor says "hi". We're doing well in Wisconsin, though still wishing we were back in the Bay Area.
Take care!
Allison Rodriguez

Hi Christine,

You likely don't remember me, but we grew up in the same neighborhood as kids. There has been a buzz about your book and the fact that you will be at the high school reunion in a couple of weeks. I look forward to reading your touching story as well as seeing you at Castle Rock park! Be well.

The reunion was a blast. I sold six books there but do not remember meeting you. Are you on Facebook? I have been in contact with a few high school friends through Facebook.

Hi Christine,

I met you today during Mario's speech appointment with Lucy at Kaiser. I was observing Lucy and was able to be there for your session. I found out what a doll Mario is! As I was leaving after your session, something hit me. For some reason, I realized you were probably Jim and Bette Boman's daughter. I worked with Jim in the '80's in the Industrial Engineering Department at Kaiser. I remember seeing your parents about the time of Mario's accident. (I also live in the Northgate neighborhood in Walnut Creek and see both your parents on a fairly regular basis.) They told me about the accident. I have thought of you often since then. I now have two teenage boys myself. It was wonderful meeting you and Mario today and such a delight to realize you were Jim and Bette's daughter. Is it o.k. with you if I tell them I met you?

Take care,
Darolyn

Please do tell your boys and have them read the book. Teenagers never think anything serious will happen to them.

“Subject: Our Walk Together on the Martinez Marina Pier

It was wonderful to see you again today. We met several months ago at the Martinez Marina. You were with your friend named Deborah and her husky named Solera. I was with my Alaskan Malamute named Nymeria. You told me your name and asked me mine, then you hugged me and told me you liked my blond hair. I mentioned to you that I walk Nymeria twice a day and hoped to see you again sometime. Well, today while I was walking Nymeria on the pier I saw a young man walking with a walker, and I guided my 130 pound puppy to the opposite side of the path so as not to get in your way. When I passed you, I thought you looked familiar and it occurred to me that you were Mario the same young man I had met several months ago. I reintroduced myself to you and we hugged before walking together along the pier. During our walk and visit, I began to sing the Rob Thomas song Little Wonders, and you asked me to sing some more, which I did then I told you you had to sing with me, which you did, then we did a slow dance and spread our arms out as if we were flying. Afterward, we walked back, and I asked if you had a friend to pick you up. I met Kat, and asked if you had a facebook account, then gave her my name and number. Well, Mario, you brightened my day with your smile, kind words, and heartfelt embrace, and you didn’t even know I had just prayed to God to help me touch and feel his presence in this world, in my life. Then I saw you, and I knew that you were the answer to my prayer. God reaches out through those willing, and it reminded me that I am also a vessel for God’s love to bring to others. I have a facebook page. If you would like to be friends, look me up. May God our Heavenly Father continue to Bless our Lives.

-Lora”
