Hi Jane, Hello Family,
Was wondering how you're doing....trust you're managing to inch steadily forward, even when your heart's not in it.
Hope some sweet memories have brought smiles to your faces and laughter to your heart.
May you have everything you need, to travel thru each day.
Much Love & Warm Support,

Ms Lu

Hi Jane, Hi Family,
For some reason you all popped into my head yesterday and haven't been able to get you off my mind, so figured I'd better hunt thru old e-mails and see if I couldn't find this link.
Hope everything's going OK, and that you're still endeavoring to inch steadily along. I know it must feel like trying to walk thru knee-high mud at times, without your precious Cassie by your side. Bless you
Much Love & Warm Support, and Prayer-Songs, continue to flow steadily your way.

Im posting your card to you this week (I hope it gets there in time) but your gift is coming separately from somewhere in America, so if you get a little something and you can't work out where from- its probably me!

Thinking of you as always,

Hi Jane, I thought I would leave a message tonight. I still check Casie's guestbook to see how you are regularly. I've had a busy month as my friend got married and I was a bridesmaid, the wedding took place in cornwall which is at the very bottom of the country, it has some beautiful beaches, not a patch on the one i saw in florida though. Im not sure which beach i saw in florida, I was 9 and we went searching for sarisota (I think thats what its called?)but ended up getting very lost. We did find a lovely beach though and i was happy to find tons of "curly shells" as i had always wanted to find one (I still have them even now!). Anyway, it was a nice wedding and the weather was lovely, we have had such a rubbish summer. I don't think i ventured out once without my big caridgan (i do feel the cold more than most people do but even so!)!.

Lots of love

Vikki

Casie will never be forgotten. I have a list of "Angels" saved in my favorites in my CB folder and I try to make rounds every few weeks. Sadly, that list keeps growing as does my list of newfound kids/adults. Casie will always be in the hearts of the many that she touched during her journey.

hi jane, Post Pals is turning 5 this summer so we had a party. One of the grandparents whose granddaughter who passed away arranged for us to release a balloon for every Post Pal child we had lossed. In the evening I found another pink balloon so let it go for Casie. I didn't get a picture as it was dark, but I was able to see it go up fairly well as I had the outside light on.

Take care,

Dear Cass, Jane and all,
Good Evening dear family!
You are NOT forgotten. I "get it" that it's certainly feeling that way.
Sooooo glad Viks gave us the update. I've had puter troubles awhile back and lost everyone's addy's, and have slowly been getting them back. Then one of Caringbridge's site-updates knocked them all out again. Then crazy health and building stuff on this end (like Cass, more serious than I'm putting to words.
I offer this, not as an excuse or for you to take up my "stuff", but so you'll realize that maybe you're not as forgotten as you're thinking/feeling. That maybe there are others hunting for a hardcopy of your addy so they can visit again and let you know they're lifting you up daily.
Yes, it is true, that many folks DO accidently "go on about their lives". That's a hard reality. For this long term stuff needs the same love, time and attention as the short term, more visible stuff.
I'm sooo sorry folks haven't been coming by as they once did. I'm sorry it's hurt your heart and soul.
Am here, am continuing to lift you up (never stopped).
You matter. Your zillion tiny choices, victories great and small, every bump in the road, every chasm, every mountain, every sleepless night....they all matter and each one is being lifted up by name.
May you be surrounded by love and light, peace and hope, courage and serenity....and may your indomidable spirit thrive, bloom and grow, against all odds.
Much Love & Warm Support,
Heart-Hugs & Prayer-Songs,

For some reason it has been really hard for me to look at Casie's page.A combination of things. I see few entries and it really sinks in that people have gone their way and forgotten my girl. Very normal but hard.. It also is hard to see her breezy way of writing- never letting the gravity of the situation get to her. Lastly it is all the wonderful friends we made allong the way have also lost the battle. E mily's death was very hard for me to handle. She was my last great hope of someone beating this disease and I have become very found of her family. Never do you want to see people suffer with losing a child. I hope all is well with everyone who still stops by.I have not given up the fight but am trying along with good fiends to make accessible bone marrow testing for all. Till next time...

Hi Jane, great to see an entry from you and great to hear your still doing the bone marrow drives, amazing to think of how many lives you might of saved by running them, and the amount casie will of saved by inspiring people to donate blood and to join the register. Sorry to hear things arent goign well for Emily, I've not checked her page for a couple of days but will go and do that now.

Take care, Viks

It has been a long time since I have made any entries. I thank everyone who still stops by. As some of you know I have been doing bone marrow drives in the memory of my sweet Casie. We are having one this weekend at the Y in St. Petersburg on Friday from 12 to 6 and on Saturday from 10 to 6. While Casie and I were in All Children's we met Emily Lester who has become another inspiration to me. Casie and Emily exemplify beautiful spirits. It is never all about them.Emily has done Relays for Life and helped me tremendously with bone marrow drives. She is now in for a second transplant as she recently relasped. All is not going well and she could use some prayers. Please storm the heavens for her!

Jane, Katia brought me the Ladybug that Casie made in the hospital. It always hangs by a string right by the monitor by my computer. Anyway, the string had broken (the ladybug is fine) but I figured itw as a reminder to hop on here and send you a message. I sign on a lot from my phone but I don't leave messages but I am stopping to do just that right now. I think of you guys often and Casie all the time. She always has a special place in my heart.

Dear Jane,
How hard it must be, with yet another Holiday Season being in full swing, without your beloved Casie's physical presence here with you. I read where you shared about the special glint that was always in her eyes, and understood from other readings about her tenacious spirit. She sounds like not only was she an Incredible person with an Indominable spirit, but that she continues to influence the world for good thru her legacy of courage....the drives done in her name, the people that continue to visit here over the 3 "eon" years ("eon" meaning I'm sure they've felt like whole lifttimes, not simply 3 normal-years-of-time). Bless you.
May you and your family be surrounded by Love & Light thru the Holiday Season and always.

My husband Joe Ronie Ray has been diagnosed with Throat Cancer and has started his treatments at the Willamette Valley Cancer Center in Eugene, Oregon. Visit the Website
www.wvcancercenter.com

Medicare covers 80% of costs, we will have difficulty paying the remaining 20% of the total costs involved.

Joe has to have shots of a cancer drug everyday for 35 days. The drug will help save his saliva glands throughout the radiation treatments.

The injection cost of almost $100.00 has to be paid daily.

Joe has Six more Chemotherapy treaments scheduled, the injection cost of almost $40.00 each time he recieves the Chemotherapy.

This will be impossible for us to continue to pay on top of the 20% of other medical charges.

I am asking for help for my husband.

Hey Mrs. Snow, Just wanted to let you know I was thinking about Casie. My boyfriend signed up at a recent bone marrow drive here in Gainesville. Casie's drive was the first one I ever went to. Know that she is thought of often and missed. Hope you're doing well.
Love, Erin Doyle <boltsfan19@gmail.com>
Gainesville, FL - Monday, April 16, 2007 9:14 PM CDT
I know it has been too long. I just never want to sit and write while feeling blue. So many days are hard to bear. Easter is the day that Casie was diagnosed and the next Easter was spent in the hospital too. Such a waste as this family always loved Easter. It did not matter that they were teenagers. No, never too cool to find eggs. Of course I did not do it this year-too hard. I did do a bone marrow drive and it was a big success! This year we tried to target minorities. I had lots of help from the Lester family and Tricia's sister Marianne who goes above and beyond! My spirits lift and then dive, Casie's friends are starting to graduate college and that is all she wanted to do. Casie used to beg me to let her go to school when she was little-never wanted to stay home. Another friend is having a baby and all I can think of is how she sobbed when they told her it would not happen after all the chemo...Good things and bad all rolled into one as I know she would be so happy for her friend Judee! As always I need to say a big thanks to Vics for sending me some incredible cards. I am having one framed. It is Casies name written in the sand and she so loved the beach. It was where we took her for dinner (no swimming allowed with a port) for her last dinner out before transplant.SEE beautiful things roll into sad ...what a mixture. No words to descibe but I thank God everyday I had her. She was definitly an angel on earth!Love you baby girl!

You and Roc are amazing! You were so faithful to the bone marrow drive this past weekend. I KNOW Casie is proud! I can't help but think what a team her and Emily would have been! It is hard not to think of Casie or feel her spirit -she lives in you and all that you do and continue to do for others who have to fight this fight. I want to tell you that I feel so blessed that our lives have crossed paths. You both inspire not only me, but so many others. You are making a difference. I HOPE and PRAY that you are blessed with PEACE.
Love,

Valentines...... To Heaven

This Valentine is not of the ordinary kind,
Its still filled with love...and blessings inside;
But mine has to be sent on the wings of love...
You see its destination is the Heavens above.

Its not being sent to my parents so dear,
For they are still with me each day of the year;
Its being sent to my child...who left earth so soon,
Who's now in the Heavens with the stars and the moon.

The message is the same as your valentine,
"I love you...my sweet precious child of mine;
My love is still deeper than the ocean is blue,
And its sent with hugs and kisses...from me to you."

"I know you are with me each and every day,
You listen as I talk to you...and hear what I say;
For that is one thing that disease cannot do...
...you'll always be apart of me...and me a part of you."

"I know God did not give you the awful disease,
Thank Him for His comfort He gives me...would you please?
I dont know what I would do without His undying love...
Sent to bereaved parents from the Heavens above."

"I know you are in the best of care,
But it's so hard for us left on earth to bear;
Could you put in a request from us left behind...
For God to send the knowledge..so a cure we can find."

"So that no other family has to go through this pain,
Our lives without you will never be the same;
When I get lonely I will look to the sky at night...
And see you shining down your big bright light."

2007! Wow, so much has changed yet so much the same. I thank eveyone who stops by. It is such a comfort to know that my girl still comes to mind. She was here! So many people act like it never happened.Life was always without her, no mention of her name, her always smiling face. It kills me but here I find comfort.I bless every one of you. I will write more another day ...Jane

The Stockings Were Hung:

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
But one special stocking was no longer there
All that was left were the memories bittersweet
Of a life that had ended so incomplete

The family had pictures all gathered around
That sometimes made all of them tear up and frown
For the sorrow and sadness without their sweet child
Made it difficult for the whole family to smile

Although there were times when they felt him(her) so close
As if they were feeling some kind of a ghost
The signs that were sent were so special and clear
That they felt that he(she) truly was so very near

They often would talk to him(her) as if he(she) was there
Sometimes they would smile but also shed tears
For each Christmas that came brought with it such pain
That they felt in their hearts would always remain

Then one special moment on one special day
He(She) came to them and simply took them away
To fly through the heavens and up to the stars
A beautiful place that was not very far

He(She) showed them where they would all join once again
A place full of beauty no sorrow or pain
A place where he(she) is happy with heavenly friends
A place where we too will also ascend

After their amazing visit was through
This family was no longer terribly blue
For they finally realized one day not to far
They would all be together on a heavenly star

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear,
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here,
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card,
A card of love for my parents, as this day for them is hard,
There must be some mistake I thought, every card you can imagine,
except I could not find a card, from a child that lives in heaven,
they are still a parent too, no matter where I reside,
I had to leave, they understand, but oh the tears they cried,
I thought that if I wrote to you, that you would come to know,
that though I live in heaven now, I still love my parents so,
they talk with me, and dreams with me, we still share laughter too,
memories are our way of speaking now, would you see what you can do?
my parents carry me in their heart, their tears they hide from sight,
they plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells,
they writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease there pain as well,
so you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth,
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth,
they need to be honored, and be remembered too,
just as the children of the earth will do,
thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you will do your best,
find a way to tell them, how much they mean to me,
until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.


I know Christmas must be so hard for you although I can't comprehend how difficult it must be.

All my love,

Viks

Hi Jane, I just came across this poem and it made me think of you and Cassie;



I have not turned my back on you,
So there is no need to cry.
I’m watching you from heaven,
Just beyond the morning sky.
I’ve seen you almost fall apart
When you could barely stand.
I asked the Lord to comfort you,
And watched Him take your hand.
He told me you are in more pain,
Than I could ever be.
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard,
Then gave your hand to me.
Although you may not feel my hand
Or see me by your side
I’ve whispered that I love you
While I wiped each tear you cried,
So please try not to ache for me
We’ll meet again one day
Beyond the dark and stormy sky
A rainbow lights the way.

Today is another day of sad memories. Casie and I met a beautiful and sweet girl also at All Children's. Instantly you would like her.Today is the second anniversary of her being gone. Only two months seperate her and Casie with these horrible diseases winning! I hate that! Forever they will be linked in my mind with their winning smiles and hopeful faces.Pray for all that still battle! It probably does not seem like much when people stop by and send caring messages but it really does matter. It helps those fighting and those left behind to know there are people out there who go out of their way and realize how horrible these diseases are and fight them in their own way. Lifting our spirits! Jane

To Casie's angels, that is all of you that take a moment to remember her, the one's that take the time to sign her book,the one's that include her in songs and books, the one's that stil speak her name, the great and mysterious one's that stop at her grave (I see candles and flowers), you will never know how much that means and what comfort that brings me. It let's me know that she mattered and her fight was not in vain- there must be a purpose..anyway THANK YOU AND LOVE from the bottom of my heart! I think she knows and smiles when we think or speak of her..

Which makes me sad!!! That is the only way I make it through almost 2 years later. I have to talk about her she was my baby I miss her so much well hope to hear from you soon and also Cassie was such a pretty girl and what a brave one at that. It is just to much sometimes.

Hi Jane!! It has been a while since I have seen or spoke with you and I do miss you! I hear you're going out to eat on a girls night soon! My mom always talks about how much she enjoys them!

I was reminicing today while I am home in St. Pete. I watched a tape with all of our winterguard competitions from the "Gold Dust" year. Its just weird how one picture one moment in time (or in my case one video) can just take you right back to a time when things were very much different. I was excited everytime we all caught our tosses and a little dissapoitned when someon was rushing or late but the best part about those videos for me is a recorded memory of my time with Casie. To have proof that I was there next to her and just being wih her. Things like that make me feel good.

Today is two years since my girl is gone....not one day goes by that she is not the first thing on my mind.Every occassion is just not the same without her. My oldest graduated college (Kris) last weekend and all I could think of is how boring our family is without her.She always had that mischievious glint in her eye and could make anything fun. Of course I also thought how hard she fought as all she wanted to do was go to college and be a nurse. But time goes on and the realization that my girl is really gone has finally settled in.I thank everyone for being so kind and thinking of her.I pray for all who are battling and for us that remain.My thoughts are everywhere...Thanks again, Love Jane

Time keeps passing but not one day goes by that I don't wake up with Casie not on my mind. Such a hole there but what a blessing to have had her. Not fair that children suffer and leave us. The memories are hard and I keep waiting for the horror to fade and be replaced by only the good memories. Casie had such a life force! Enjoyed everything and looked forward to even little things. I can't believe how much she inspired me. I could so easily become a hermit but life goes on and work and other obligations call. My little friend Emily is doing well at St. Judes where she got her transplant. Bailee has now returned home from Sloan Kettering where she recieved one. That is really something as she has been gone almost two years.Please keep prayers for all coming. I do believe they help!

Want to say hi to all that still stop by. Can't say it's better or worse just different...One of Casie's friends just got married and so sweet of her but she had pictures of Casie on a memory table along with the groom's father who also passed away. How special was that to share their big day? Jodee and Casie were friends since grammer school and were very into In Sync (Justin Timberlake) when they were young and she even dedicated a song to her by them. Casie would be so honored. I hope in some way she knew. It is just incredible what kind of people she attracted. So kind of Jodee and her family, I don't know if I would have been so giving. One thing I have been amazed by are all the good people out there. Even the kindness to stop and sign the book. Vic's and Brenda you are amazing. Some day I hope our paths cross..Jane

LETTING YOU KNOW THAT YOUR THOUGHT OF ON MOTHER'S DAY.KEEPING YOU IN MY THOUGHTS AND IN MY PRAYER'S ALWAYS.



A Mother's Day Wish From Heaven

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card
A card of love for my mother, as this day for her is hard.

There must be some mistake I thought, every card you could imagine
Except I could not find a card, from a child who lives in heaven.
She is still a mother too, no matter where I reside
I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she’s cried.

I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know
That though I live in heaven now, I still love my mother so.
She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too,
Memories our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do?

My mother carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight.
She writes poems to honor me, sometimes far into the night
She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells
She writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease their pain as well.

So you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth
She needs to be honored, and remembered too
Just as the children of earth will do.

Thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you’ll do your best
I have done all I can do; to you I’ll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me
Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.

Yes, I really mean Happy Easter Jane. I know it's been 3 years since your trip down south was stopped so abruptly, but you've come a long way and I'm proud to say, we will never forget and will always try to be as happy as Casie was.

Hiya Jane, I had a funny moment last week when i got a phone call telling me a company was trying to deliever a 170kg/26 stone to me (for post pals)- full of craft kits made of foam! Im wondering if a member of staff fell in the box and no body noticed! I know im posting this on april fools day but its actually being delievered on weds. If i don't sign your guestbook for awhile its either because ive fallen into the box and can't get out or ive been squished! hehe Love Viks

HI! The bone marrow drive was a big success! 109 new registrants to the bone marrow registry. Casie would be proud and I so wish she was at my side during this. It was her idea to continue these so I do it for her. Our friend Emily had her transplant yesterday with her sister as the donor! All went very well and Katherine has already said she would like to donate to someone else! Do you believe this? One day out from donating and ready to do it again! You must know she is a high school freshman...She is an amazing girl!A BIG thanks to Wendy and Al Johnson at Motion Sports for letting us do the bone marrow drive at the Bay to Bay race. Everything was just perfect! Beautiful weather, the sun shimmering off the water, pelicans all around and great people!Maryann Renfrow was a super help also! She was tireless in getting the word out and standing there with us to explain to people what we were doing! Next year we hope Emily and her sister Katherine will be our spokespeople seeing that they will be able to speak from both sides. Katherine being the donor and Emily the recipient!I hope my sons will become very involved in this also. My oldest was able to free himself from his college classes and help us for the day. I was so proud! So many people told me he was so good with explaining to them what would be involved if they were called upon to be a donor.Casie loved her brothers so! Even in the hospital if it was their birthdays she managed to find a way to get them a gift that was truly from her. No sending mom or dad to the store,no she was resourceful and always picked something with a sense of humor! Spongebob shower radio etc. Thanks to all that still come by and remember all that are still battling!

Jane,
I have followed Casie's story thru Katia's site. I just wanted to let you know that my husband was one of the 109 that joined in the drive. I would have but I'm already on it. Keep up the good work!!

Jane, When I read it was a total of 109 people added to the registry my heart jumped! Yeah! You and Roc worked so hard on this and I know Casie is beaming with joy knowing you are doing something to help so many other people.

As always it's great to see you and I hope we can get together soon!
Love, Cathy

I see the guestbook has been rolled over. Jane, I am glad to see you back online. I come by Casie's page often just to see that beautiful smile!! It sounds like you have been keeping busy working on this drive in Casie and Emily's honor. Casie would be so happy and proud! Emily and them are lucky to have your support and friendship:) Katia wears the PJs Casie bought for her all the time (yes they still fit and probably will for quite sometime). I think of you often:)
