"The diagnosis was emotionally devastating for our family," the winemaker writes in a letter on the Hotel Healdsburg website. at "At the time, it felt as if every parent’s worst fears had come true. Little did we know what an incredible blessing this diagnosis would be and how it would profoundly change our lives."
