West Seattle scene: Caroling for ‘Awesome Avery’ and family

avery

A beautiful sight in a West Seattle backyard brought holiday cheer to “Awesome Avery” Berg and her family. We have reported before – here and here – on Avery, who was diagnosed with brain cancer just as she prepared to start middle school this fall. The photo and update are from friend Kelly Malloy:

She begins her second round of chemo today – and the community surprised the family on Tuesday by showing up in their back yard with candles and holiday songs to sing. Her dear friends Liza and Rachel coordinated this and it was AWESOME. (like Awesome Avery)

Caroling at Avery’s and seeing (at least) 50 people in her back yard was mind blowing, inspiring, brilliant, sweet, and just another reflection of the fabulous community of West Seattle.

Avery’s mom Kristie has continued to post updates from time to time here.

    Avery, May our Lord and Savior Jesus watch over you. I will be praying for you and your family.

    I heard them caroling Silent Night from my backyard since I live behind this family.  It was so beautiful. 

    Avery was at our block party in August.  I had no idea.

     Sending  peace and healing across the alley to her and her family.
