Hi Diane--
I found your web site from your posting on Queen Maddy's web site. We have fallen in love with the Bates family! We also lost our little girl, Princess Madi, in October 2003 after she received a transplant at Duke to treat ALL. What an ugly disease! We have, like so many others, struggled with good days and bad, but feel so blessed to have the faith that we will hold our baby girl again! Thank you for your web site and for sharing your journey with me. I just spent the past hour reading through many of your entries, and you have touched my heart. Congrats on your beautiful new grand-daughter! We just had our first little grand-niece join our family this past Tuesday! The circle continues. I signed up to receive your emails and look forward to getting to know you more through them. I also tried to order your CD and a couple of books, but apparently I need to try again later due to technical difficulties. I don't believe in coincidences, so I believe I was lead to your web site for a reason. I hope to find additional information to share with Richelle and Joe as they are just beginning this journey of healing.
Sincerely, Marian Mitchem (Princess Madi's Mom) |
