The Friday Feature: December 26, 2025

The Friday Feature w/Sean: Don’t Blink! Really, don’t blink.

Don’t blink! Don’t do it. Welcome to Week #301 of The Friday Feature. Our granddaughter turns 11 today. She’s still asleep after a big Christmas Day.

We say it all the time: time flies. This one made me stop. The next time her birthday falls on a Friday is 2031. She’ll be 17.

In what feels like a blink, she’ll be driving, making big decisions, chasing dreams, and stepping into adulthood.

She also lives with Kabuki syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple systems of the body. It appears equally across genders, ethnicities, and geographies. The gene mutations have been identified, creating hope for future treatment pathways. Today, there are no treatments that address the root cause; care focuses on managing symptoms.

That’s why this matters. If you’re moved to help, Debbie and I will match the first $1,000 given to help unlock life-changing treatments faster. https://lnkd.in/eNzbeqtY

As we come to the end of 2025, it’s a reminder to slow down. Look around. Really look. See your family, not in passing, not while multitasking, but truly see them. Appreciate your friends. The ones who walk life with you.

Time moves fast. Cherish the moments. Keep Pushing Forward.
