It's been a long times since Shelly and I last saw you at Middlebury; I have loved looking for you every month when I get my Runners' World but, what to say?, ugh, to read that about what your little girl is going through, our hearts go out to you. We have two little girls, one of them Maddie's age... I can't wait to hear about next Saturday!!!!!!!!!!! Ann (I roomed with you at Midd.) Hi Emily,

When my son Mark was hospitalized for surgeries as a preteen he remembers 'taking out the IV' as the worst part. Funny the stuff you don't learn in nursing school.... I was up in your neighborhood (all the way to Moody's for four berry pie and Morse's for snacks) yesterday with a friend..thought of you much! We'll be watching next week! Laurie and USM pals..

My running buddy's 20-mo-old son Samuel(http://www.caringbridge.org:80/visit/samuellindell) was diagnosed with ALL Leukemia on Easter Sunday. They are in the throngs of the day-to-day emotional rollercoasting which this wretched disease brings, in terms of their son's low ALC, stomach distress and incessant desire to eat. Today was our first run together since my buddy's son was diagnosed with leukemia; I also ran the Knoxville marathon 2 weeks ago, and Samuel has my running shirt and medal, as that precious and brave little boy inspired me to maintain my pace. Anyway, God speed to your daughter for health and remission, and good luck in the OTs. Your story gives me hope for my friend's son..........
