No one expects for their child to have a deletion in his genetic makeup,especially a deletion that doctors don't know much about. This is why we have started "Landon's Love," a developing organization/business to raise money for genetic research in order to help doctors better understand chromosome deletions such as Landon’s, comfort parents as they embrace this journey with their child, and ensure that people with genetic differences have the brightest future possible. Our son might be missing part of a chromosome, but he has captured the hearts of all who have met him. There is nothing better than Landon's love!

Yearly Donation

I cannot believe it has been a year since the idea of Landon's Love transpired. It has certainly been an adventure starting Landon's Love, especially while attempting to manage every other aspect of life.

I never knew how much it cost or how much time it takes to start up a business, but here we are, a year later and i'm proud to say that despite all of the expenses, Landon's Love will donate over a thousand dollars to the UVA Fund in Landon's name to go toward genetic research and helping patients and families with genetic differences. In addition to the thousand that the business has donated, we have had generous donations made in Landon's name directly to the UVA Fund.

THANK YOU for all of your support, both morally and through donations. we certainly couldn't have done this without you!

we look forward to a new year, hopefully filled with new ideas and new journeys for Landon's Love.

We are very blessed to have such a wonderful son who has inspired us to help others.

Happy Holidays and may the new year bring you all peace and warmth in your hearts!
