Dear Sydney and Family~ I came across your little insert along with one of the 4 bracelets I purchased years ago at a marathon expo. Your perseverance and strength amaze me. I do hope you are leading the life of a typical healthy teenage girl. You are in my prayers.

My wife and I just saw you on Born to Ride tonight. Hopefully, all is well as there were no entries on your journal site since 2011. I am sure many would love to know you are still winning your fight and a true survivor. Our thoughts and prayers will always be with you. God bless.

Hi Sydney,
I don't know if you remember me, but i am the girl who followed your dad around with a camera on the Loneliest Road trip in 2007. Remember we talked under the tree that day at Karen Franca's house. You were really brave then and by the looks of things you are still as brave as ever!! Keep kicking this cancer's butt!! I hope 7th grade is treating you well. Please tell your mom and your crazy, fun dad that Amy says hello.
Love always,

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
I said a prayer for you today
And know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke no word!
I didn't ask for wealth or fame
(I knew you wouldn't mind).
I asked Him to send treasures
Of a far more lasting kind!
I asked that He'd be near you
At the start of each new day;
To grant your health and blessings
And friends to share your way!
I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small.
But it was for His loving care
I prayed the most of all!
Hugs and Blessings

Thanks for sharing Sydney's story with us; so glad she's doing well.
Our Sarah (8-yr. NB survivor) also had growth issues--she topped out at 4'11. Her problems were due more to growth plates fusing prematurely At 15 she is loving High School and doing well.
So thankful for our girls who have beaten the odds and are still alive years after diagnosis.

Stronger and wiser.
We can't control the future…
But we can send our dreams
Ahead of us
To help prepare the way.
We can live each moment…
Heart and soul,
And cherish this day's
Greatest gift…
The gift of now.
May peace with the past
And faith in the future,
Gently guide you through each
Precious moment of Today.

Have you considered signing up Sydney for Camp Boggy Creek?
The north florida cancer session is July 8 - 14
The south florida cancer session is July 27 - Aug 2
Camp Boggy Creek is a permanent, year-round facility near Orlando where children between the ages of 7-16 with chronic or life-threatening illnesses can come at no charge to them or their families.
Boggy Creek gives campers a chance to normalize their lives by being with children battling the same illness. "Everyone is just the same as me!"

There is also a camp in North Carolina (www.victoryjunction.org)

The Gift
The priceless gift of life is love,
For with the help of God above
Love can change the human race
And make this world a better place-
For love dissolves all hate and fear
And makes our vision bright and clear
So we can see and rise above
Our pettiness on wings of love.

HAVE A WONDERFUL VALENTINE'S DAY

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Angel_Wings
Thank You, God, for everything ...
The big things and the small,
For "every good gift comes from God" ...
The Giver of them all.
And all too often we accept
Without any thanks or praise,
The gifts You send as blessings
Each day in many ways.
And so at this Thanksgiving time,
We offer up a prayer;
To thank You, God, for giving us
A lot more than our share.
First, thank You for the little things
That often come our way;
The things we take for granted
And don't mention when we pray.
The unexpected courtesy,
The thoughtful, kindly deed,
A hand reached out to help us ...
In the time of sudden need.
Oh, make us more award, dear God,
Of little daily graces,
That come to us with "sweet surprise,"
From never-dreamed-of places.
Then, thank You for the "miracles"
We are much too blind to see,
And give us new awareness
Of our many gifts from Thee.
And help us to remember
That the "key" to "life" and "living,"
Is to make each prayer a "prayer of thanks,"
And every day THANKSGIVING.

It looks good and I want to see that along with another movie coming out Friday. Some friends of mine have a house on Lake Lure and are moving there permanently this week. You might know them, the Thurlby's. It looks beautiful in the pictures. Take it easy and dont over do yourself. Keeping in you my prayers and lots of love coming your way. Valerie

I am so sorry about Sydney's liver levels. I will pray that they come down swiftly and that she is able to continue this program. I am sure you loved The Proposal and had fun at the bookstore. I went and saw "UP" today, what a great movie (if you haven't already seen it). Well, Sydney has pulled through so much I am going to have faith and believe this will be a small stumble on the way to her CURE. Love you guys! Tracy

Sydney, I know you must not be feeling to well with the liver misbehaving. Seems like your gonna make the best of that by going to Barnes and Nobles. I love to read. Better than T.V. I am keeping you in my prayers. Rest is good for the Liver. When my mother had elevated liver problems there was a certain time that she had to go to bed every night in order for the liver to rejuvenate. I think it was 8:00. I am not sure. I will try to look it up on the net. It was something to do with the time you went to bed not how many hours. She is fine now. No trouble with the liver. Keeping you in my prayers. Enjoy your reading while rest is the medicine.

Hopefully the side effects will subside and Sydney will get to feeling better so you can continue to enjoy your days in NYC. She is such a BRAVE and SELFLESS young lady--I get goosebumps when I think of how many neuroblastoma kids are being helped with Sydney "trying out" the vaccine. Such a trooper! Love, Tracy

Dear Sydney,BIG CONGRADULATIONS on NED!!!!!!!!!! Keeping you in my prayers for the fever and liver. I had hepatitis once and it gave me flu symptoms. Well it was the worst flu symptoms ever.There was a special diet that I had to be on because of the stressed liver. Maybe you could inquire if that would be an avenue for you for the time being until the liver decides to straighten up. I know fever is a drag also. I know you are in great hands, I am just pulling for you to go through this with flying colors. Hope the fever subsides and stays away.

Michelle and family, I tentatively said that it was good news that "scans are all clear".
I did not actually hear the words "NED" from you but that is how most of the recent guest writers have wished to interpret it. I have no argument with that. That's exactly what I want to hear. I do believe in Sydney's healing.
You have a very determined spirit Sydney. You are an amazing young woman and you are winning this fight.

Sydney hurray for the wonderful news, your scans being clear. This post is not showing on home page, but I saw another guest writer has read it - it is on journal history. I can really empathise with your bad headache as I migraines. It is truly horrible. I hope this problem clears up for both of us.
Michelle, I am finding it impossible to post CB messages on most sites due to the recent upgrade and needing to input your time zone, which it refuses to accept for me. Fingers crossed this message will work for me.

Praise God! Great news! Michelle, Sarah has been suffering severe headaches, sleepiness..... She had an MRI the other day but don't have any results yet. The doctor said there's a good chance it could be puberty hormones. Since they are the same age, maybe that's what it is for both of them. There are times when she can't even lift her head up. It's been going on for about two months now. I'll let you know what the Neurologist says on Monday.

Sims family- This is my first time to your site. My daughter Corin has Medulloblastoma. She received 3F8 out at MSKCC and finished right before Christmas last year. She is currently clean and on a maintenance plan. We are going back out to NY for scans in April. The people there are great and we enjoy going back to see Rich and the whole crew at RMH.
I pray that your treatment in 2009 goes well. It sounds like you have been through so much. More than any child should have to go through. We have been fighting Medulloblastoma since 2006. I pray they will find a cure for these diseases so no other child has to suffer. God Bless your family.

Hello Sims Family!!
It has been awhile since writing to you. I have read the updates on everyone! It is wonderful news that Kevin is able to stay stateside with a new unit. The kids have been doing well except for Sydney right now with her abdominal pains and sinus infection. She looks adorable in the latest picture and I love the family pictures from your adventure into the woods! I was saddened to read about Jessica Rose earning her wings, Nick's treatments and about Jake. These are the kids I would check in on to see how they are doing. I havent read their updates for a month or so. I pray for a cure for the children battling cancer. Continue to enjoy the winter in S/N Carolina! It has been wicked cold down here but beginning to warm up some. Talk to you later. Love, Valerie

Hi, I love checking in on sydney and seeing how she is doing were from pennsylvania. I have two teenage Girls and my husband is a farmer with his dad. I'm a stay at homemom. I just so happened to have a uti and stomach pains and cramping low and behold there doing a culture. Saw another doctor and she is thinking i may have never had a uti she thinks it is a yeast infection. I'm just having terrible pains that won't go away and they she said she thinks it's all from a yeast infection. Not sure if this could be sydney's case. Once my yeast is treated usally those pains go away. Can't hurt to find out. I also never get any symptoms of what a yeast infection are so i never knew i had it util I went for a gnological appointment. I do know i get really sick and nauseated from yeast and get to many cramps with it i just feel all around yucky. I hope this might help with sydney. A MOM from pa.

My name is April and I live in California. Girl, I don't blame you on your snow worries! I am not happy about snow either, and I am not even in it! I forget right now how I found your site but it was through...someone else's and someone else's and so on and so on! Caringbridge is a VERY BIG family!
My daughter is in the 7th grade. We are both wondering if you are not too busy for a pen pal, or well, an email pal?
Rachael loves drawing and would like to know what your favorite animal might be, as she would love to draw it for you. She is a really good artist. (not me, I still draw stick figures!) She would love to keep in touch with you, and if you have the time, maybe you could write her too. If you would like to, please drop her a line in care of me for now: Aprilkling@verizon.net. Sometime in the future maybe we can share our addresses and she can actually write to you on a piece of paper! :)
Well, hang in there! Please know that that Rachael and I are thinking about you. Also, we think you are so pretty!
Love,
April & Rachael

Hey Sydney,
I'm sorry I haven't gotten on to leave you a message earlier, but you've been in my prayers. It sounds like you've been kept pretty busy in NY with all those arts and crafts projects! I bet your little house is so cute! I don't know how you found the time to finish homework!! :)
You look beautiful in the new pictures your mom posted! You look like you really enjoy cheerleading! And I can't get over how long your hair is getting!!
Praying for clean scans!

And chilly north winds blow.

The fields, their yellow grain,
So open wide the doorway ---

Hi Sims family-
My son is an NB warrier too- Sydney is beautiful. Have you looked into the T cell vaccine trials at TXCCC (Dr. Russell) or the antibody trial at St. Judes (not mouse so HAMA not an issue). She should be eligible for both. Just a thought. Promising published results on TX vaccine trial. You probably aren't looking for any advice but thought I'd mention it anyway. Glad to hear Sydney is hanging in there.

Dear Sims family I have not checked in for a little while, so today I had to read all the way back to July 23rd which was a nice calm post ... I was not aware of what was to come so soon after. I have read it all now and am relieved to hear that Sydney has survived her high dose 3f8. It is lucky for me I was not aware of what was going on as I would have been horrified. There has been a lot going on for me so I have not been able to stop by until now. It is great to hear that both Sydney and Drew are doing so well at school. It is also wonderful to hear that overall, Sydney is feeling well and is enjoying her friends and her many activities. I feel so cheered up and relieved when I hear of my nb warriors doing so well.

That stinks about the HAMA, thank goodness her cancer is stable. This just may be God's plan for her right now. If the low dose treatment can keep the cancer in check I am sure that all of you will enjoy living your exceptionally BUSY lifestyle of extra-curricular activities, homework, and just hanging out at home. :) Always, ALWAYS praying for you all.

Thank you for leaving a message on our carepage. This world is so small. While Olivia was going through treatment I came across your daughters caringbridge. I cannot even think how now. But when I read that you lived in Tampa and was at ACH I obviously was very intrigued. Your daughters beautiful face always stuck in my mind. I also saw that her father did the Lonliest Road campaign. We were in the Tampa clinic one time, probably getting blood or platelets and Sydney was there also. I remember she slept the entire time and you mentioned to the nurse that her new medication made her want to sleep all the time. I don't know if you remember that. I recognized her face right away.I also saw a drawing Sydney did, I think to one of the nurses, up at Sloan. I would love to meet you there at the Philly Marathon. Our friend was able to secure a tent and I will find out where it is. I look forward to meeting you and will keep your family and Sydney in our prayers.

It's so good to catch up on your updates and here all the amazing things that Sydney's doing. I am so completely thrilled for how much your life is changing for the good.
Twilight is seriously and completely addicting...now that I've finished #4, I'm having a bit of withdrawal with no more to read. I'm all Team Edward...I am a geek ;) But glad to know I'm not alone.
Love to you all, stay happy and you're always in my prayers.

Hi Sydney and family. A BIG THANK YOU for the inspiration you share with many families that are experiencing neuroblastoma. I had not been to your site for a while and when I came today I thought to myself "yes, Nathen can do it, look at all Sydney has been through". You are indeed a miracle to be shared. God opens these doors for opportunities to show his work, and he has done just that with you. Thank you again. Nathen has recently had a relapse, but after reading your journal, I feel a sigh of some relief knowing that it's not the end of the world. Thanks again. www.nathentrueblood.com His Nana in Tampa

I'm so glad you got through the first week...right after I read your journal, I said a little prayer for you and I'll continue to pray. I hope you're feeling lots better!
Here's a funny story I thought you might enjoy...I just got home from a weekend in New York, and when I got in the front door, my cat Abbey immediately pranced over and flipped onto her stomach so I could pet her. So I petted her for a couple minutes, and when I thought she was satisfied, I went to the computer and stood at the desk while I waited for it to turn on. A few seconds later, I felt Abbey bite me on the back of my leg!! Apparently, she wanted a bit more attention...she is always clamoring for attention but this is a first!
Anyway, I thought that might make you laugh...Abbey always makes me laugh when I'm feeling sick!
Love and lots of Prayers, Sammi www.caringbridge.org/mi/sammijean

We wish we could be there with you to help in any way. You are in our hearts always. We are so sorry that "Syd The Amazing" is being put to the test yet again. I guess being smart, fun and fiendishly attractive isn't enough - life needs you to be braver than braver, and stronger than strong. I think your Halloween costume this year needs to include a cape and tights - you already have the 'special powers' part down cold. You are certainly our hero! We wish you didn't have to go through ANY of this. Let's hope and pray that the 3f8 does the trick and it brings nothing but great healthy news for you. We miss you all so much and love you even more. Hugs & kisses, Aunt Susan & Nick

Hi Sydney,
My heart just dropped when I read about the torture you've endured the past few days. It's such a shame you have to deal with these strange side effects, but you are doing a better job handling it all than anyone! I think most of us, if in your situation, would throw the towel in the bucket after a minute of 3f8. But you're so very mature to have gone through as much as you have with just the hope it will get rid of your cancer. You are such a brave girl, hang in there and hopefully this round of 3f8 HUGELY gets rid of NB cells.

Syd...You truly are brave!! Heard a little girl on radio today, reminded me of u. Tory, 13, was ill due to cystic fibrosis and had lost a little sister, Tiffany, 8, with same disease. She said to all kids with forms of cancer, "be brave, God has a plan for your life and you are special to Him, one of a kind and He will use your life to influence others and He is right beside you and will always be with you". Tory also told Dr. Dobson, the interviewer, "I don't ask Him why this happened to me cause God has a plan, the best plan for my life and if we say no to His plan, then it changes everything and His plan is better than ours. I don't tell Him I do not want this, I just try to be thankful for all I have". It was dynamic and God is good even though life is not fair. Continue on in the fight Syd, keep being brave!!

It must be hard not to question yourself, but your love for her just shines through your posts...it's clear you are doing what is best!

In your darkest times, close your eyes and imagine everyone of us in 'netland' who are with you and Syd. We will not cease praying. KEEP FIGHTING Sydney!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God bless all of you.

Michelle and Sydney-
I am so very sorry that today was another difficult day for the both of you. I hope and pray that tomorrow is a little easier for the both of you; and I also hope and pray that the both of you have a very peaceful, and restful night tonight. I don't understand why children, and even adults have to get cancer, it is truly very unfair to say the least. Sydney is very lucky to have such a wonderful mom, and an equally wonderful family to give her the support and so much love that she needs. I don't know Sydney or your family, but Sydney has touched my life in more ways than she can possibly ever know. I will continue the positive thoughts, and the prayers for Sydney; and for the rest of the week, to be as pain free, and uneventful as possible. I hope that you both know I am praying very hard that this will soon pass; and you will be able to be home with your boys again. Stay strong Sydney; you are a sweet girl with a whole lot of people who love you and are praying for you. May God continue to bless the both of you; and hold Sydney in His tender care for peace and strength. Many prayers and positive thoughts are storming heaven, and coming your way too.
~Michelle-I am going to be putting something in the mail for Sydney tomorrow. It isn't much, but it is something that she can draw strength from; and I have it too. Please let me know via e-mail when you get it. Take care.
Love and prayers always~

I am so very sorry that today was such a horrible and horrific day for the both of you. I can't even begin to imagine all that Sydney has been through today; and how much she has gone through. I can't even imagine what you were feeling as you watched Sydney going through all of that today. I hope and pray that tomorrow is much better for Sydney, and especially that the 3f8 is much easier on her body too. You are both extra close in my heart tonight; and super close in my prayers for a restful night for Sydney; and a peaceful and restful night for mom too. Your journal entry brought me to tears; because of all that Sydney has to go through; but I hope and pray that someday all cancers will be a very distant memory. God's blessings to the both of you; tonight, tomorrow, and always.

Kevin- Good luck in the marathon! Have you tried Aquaphor for the blisters? It's really great and I always use it. I get huge blisters in my arches of all places, but that always helps to stop them from rubbing or bursting during my longer training runs.
Good luck selling all the sydlets. They are really beautiful so I pray you have a great response! You'll be in my prayers for safe travels, a successful event, and a happy anniversary!!

Great news about the scans, not so much about the knee. Keeping you in my prayers as you wait for the doctor's plan--hopefully it won't set Sydney back too much. She is such a fighter, we all know she will prevail. :)Are the leaves changing yet or is it still too early? I am jealous of your seasons! Love, Tracy

Hi Sydney!
You probably don't remember me - but I was your school counselor at Dewar Elementary in Valdosta. I keep your site on my favorites so I can check on you once in a while. I am amazed at your strength! You have been through so much and still smiling in these pictures you have posted! You are a brave girl! I am sure some days are not so good - know that you are lifted up in prayer and still thought about here in GA. Take care of yourself!!!

Hi honey,
I just stumbled across your site and I just wanted to leave you a little note. You're a beautiful girl and it's awful that you have to go through this. But judging by your site it looks like you haven't let it get you down. I was really sick when I was little too, so I know how scary it can get. Just keep smiling and know that we're all cheering for you.
Love always,

I just wanted to tell you that Jim and Cindy hosted the FIRST ANNUAL Lana's Love golf tournament yesterday here in Chattanooga! It was a great success and Lana Beth was definately there with us giving us absolutely perfect golfing weather and fun all around! Jim and the boys played golf while Cindy did the television spots and kept the guests entertained :-} Hannah Kate had fun riding around on the golf cart mostly and I'm sure that would have been Lana Beth's favorite part as well! I am praying for good scan results for you Sydney. I am most impressed that you are keeping up with your school work...WOW!!!! What a smart cookie you are :-} Blessings to all and we are thinking positive thoughts here in Chattanooga for you!

Hi Sydney & Family, I haven't checked in on you in awhile. I'm glad you getting ready to go to school. I know it is difficult not knowing the exact plan. You just have to believe in your doctors and know they will do what's best. They are the reason we took my grandson, Brice King to NY. He just finished another round of the 3f8antibody. We will have scans in Sept. Thinking of you and praying for all the kids with NB> God Bless your Family.

Hi,
I am the Dad of AJ, a 14 year old cancer victim. I wanted to make you aware (maybe again) and enlist your help for the Cure Childhood Cancer petition! The GREAT news is that CureSearch, LIVESTRONG and Alex’s Lemonade Stands have ALL written about the Petition on their websites! And TX Children’s and DUKE have both allowed us to setup paper versions inside the hospitals! WE ARE MAKING HEADWAY and are at over 11,000 signatures! But we need your help again. If you can please make your readers aware, email it around again, and give just a little publicity, I think we can make this happen!
Thanks again,

Dear Sims Family,
A group of us were meeting last week and commented on how we miss having you near by! Hope you are enjoying your new location and finding many new friends. I wanted to let you know my book is out and as you probably guessed you're part of the story! I have had many friends that have read the book ask about Sydney. Thanks again for all the support you gave us during Zach's battle. You were one of the few parents I was able to connect with and your advice meant so much. Keep in touch!
Sending love and prayers,

I hope your weekend is going well. I am getting ready to go outside and work in the yard. I pray the treatment plan is successful in helping Sydney.

I always feel awful writing this, but that is wonderful that they are going to try the 3F8 again. Many prayers that Sydney's chemistry has changed in some way and that she won't develop HAMA quickly or suffer any of the other negative side effects from the past. Enjoy your summer days until the treatment begins. It sounds like you are settling into your new home :). Love, Tracy

Sounds like overall good news for Sydney. I can't even imagine the pain tolerance she has acquired to be walking on a broken knee for two months. It is sad that she has known such pain that a broken knee doesn't stand out. I hope the not being able to walk doesn't drive her crazy and all the marrows come back good.

We loved it and our raft was problem free, but another raft had problems--we ended up hanging onto trees on the side of the river for an hour or two as we waited for an ambulance to pick up another rafter who had some problems!! But WW rafting is so much fun. Have a great time in the city (sounds like you will have lots of fun over the next few days) and many prayers for the doctors to find a miracle for Sydney. Love, Tracy

Hi Sydney, Good to hear from you and all is well. We arrived home on Friday and our internet was out along with Courtney's car not working. It is good to be home from the Cape. Still have work to do in the house and laundry but that will get done. It sounds like you are enjoying your home in SC. I cant wait to see the new line of sydlets!!! I will check the site for the updates. I
am glad you are feeling well. Continue to have a great summer. When does
school start??? I head back on August 5th. I will miss seeing you all. Have a great Sunday. Love, Val

Hi! I have followed Sydney's site for quite some time. I found it through the Loneliest Road Website. I'm glad to hear that you're liking it here in NC (technically SC). I pray that things will go well for you all next week in NY. I have some friends who will be traveling from NC to NY next week for the first time with their little boy Drake who was diagnosed with NB in late 2007, maybe your families will have the opportunity to meet. Here is his CB site: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/drakehardee

Have y'all heard about the infamous "booty loop" in Charlotte? It's a major bike route in the Myers Park neighborhood on Queens Roads(in case you haven't realized yet, Charlotte roads are confusing and there are several Queens Roads). But even better, they have a "24 hours of booty" bike "marathon" to raise money for cancer research. This event originated in Charlotte because of the famous "booty loop." This year it's July 25-26. It's a great bike route through the scenic tree-lined Myers Park streets. A very cool local event. Just thought y'all might be interested since you're now in the area: http://www.24hoursofbooty.org/

God, open my eyes so I may see
And feel Your presence close to me ...
Give me strength for my stumbling feet
As I battle the crowd on life's busy street,
And widen the vision of my unseeing eyes
So in passing faces I'll recognize
Not just a stranger, unloved and unknown,
But a friend with a heart that is much like my own ...
Give me perception to make me aware
That scattered profusely on life's thoroughfare
Are the best gifts of God that we daily pass by
As we look at the world with an unseeing eye.

Michelle,
I developed allergies later in life. My mother-in-law kept telling me it was low immune system. I started taking 2 500 mg. Vitamin C and a multi vitamin daily. I've been doing this for about 2 years and can have not been bothered by allergies. That may be the problem. I'm not a doctor but, it sure helped me. I don't know if you take vitamins or not. Lots of luck.

Hi - I have sent an email but I am sure you have tons - but also, my emails are getting caught is spam or junk folders a lot lately. So - Guestbook it is to be sure you see it and can reach me if you need anything. I am glad to see you are all doing well and that Sydney is feeling better. From the sound of the size of the pool - did you move to Baxter Village? If so, for Drews Ear, there is an Urgent Care place right down the street on Sutton Road (Philadelphia UMC Church is on the corner). Piedmont Urgent Care - they are nice and the wait is not usually tooooo long. There is also Tega Cay Family Practice at the corner of Rte 160 and Gold Hill Road. Dr Hedge & Dr Blackwell. They are GREAT and a pretty young practice so it is not too hard to get in. - If you see Dr. Blackwell, tell him I sent you. Send me an email and I will reply with my phone numbers. I have a daughter going into 8th grade (oh my) at Gold Hill Middle School. I have the summer reading list for all grades if you want to get a head start.

I'm glad to hear you are settled into your new home, in spite of the heat. Living in Vermont, we are not used to high temperatures, and today and yesterday were near 90 degrees and tonight I feel totally wiped out. Can't complain though, after nine months of winter. I'm sorry Sydney's knee is so painful. Hopefully, it's from the stairs and will go away quickly. I'll be praying for her. As for precious Marissa, I have been following her journey since the Loneliest Road campaign and I am heartbroken at this latest news. My heart and prayers go out to everybody who have had the pleasure of knowing Marissa and her family. Sending love and prayers.

You will love Charlotte, NC! We moved to NC 10 years ago from upstate NY with my husband's job relocation and we have never regretted it! Our daughter and her family live in Matthews, NC and love the area. She teaches at Crown Point Elementary School in Matthews. We will pray that your house sells quickly. Our younger daughter has two mortgages at the present time as they needed a larger home and stables for her horses, but haven't been able to sell their old house. I think the real estate market is hurting all over the country. Good luck on your new move and welcome to the great state of NORTH CAROLINA!

Hi................glad to hear that Sydney is doing better and the knee is feeling good too. I will continue to pray for your family, all the children who are fighting NB and their families, plus the Pollack family.

It is great to hear that Sydney is feeling better--hopefully they can alleviate the pain by putting something in her shoe to even her legs out. I think I am a little uneven too!! :) Good luck looking for houses this weekend; I hope that you are able to sell yours quickly. This market is not the best, but you have done so much to make yours adorable. Keeping you all in my prayers. Love, Tracy

I have been reading your Caringbridge page for a couple of years now, but never signed the guestbook. After reading yesterday's entry I felt compelled to finally sign. Sydney is always in my prayers. I live in Haywood County NC, which is where your pastor's plane was found. I just want you to know that the local community is grieving with you and praying for his friends and family. It really is a tragedy to lose such good people in such a terrible way. I don't know if you are aware of it or not, but the mountain where the plane went down is a part of Cold Mountain, which the movie was based on. Again, our thought and prayers are with you.

Good to visit with you a bit the other night and GREAT nws on the MIBG. I was hunting you all down last night and no one had seen you....very concerning thinking the knee issue was NB...must have just missed you at the flower thing. I'll be thinking and praying for you all each time I look at my Sydlet! Hope the move goes smoothly and that you can stay planted for a while.

As I told her, you really should focus on Waxhaw, Weddington, Marvin, Matthews area. Great schools and great families! Many in the area know of you and Sydney. So many people have prayed for you over the last few years. A wonderful church that you guys should look into is Weddington United Methodist Church. Call me.

I work for a catering company/gourmet shoppe here - I have been keeping up with you guys for several years now - have only written a few times in the guestbook. I actually emailed you directly one time. I will do whatever I can to help - i mean it!!! Please be in touch when you can - You guys will LOVE this area - Its such a beautiful city with lots to do - no beach though - but Charleston is a short 3 hours away - and the mtns are as close as 80-90 miles!! General Dynamics is a great company - we have catered for them many times!! Look forward to hearing from you. God Bless! Carol Booth ps - hope this means your mom is coming too!!!! :-)

I lived there years ago and loved the city and the people. My kids went to Charlotte Christian Academy --it is a great school so check it out. But I'm sure this is God's plan for you and he will place you in just the right spot. I will always pray for Sydney and look forward to reading about your new adventure there.

Hey,
I'm so excited for you guys! My daughter and I check in on you everyday but have only signed the guestbook once or twice a few years ago. I learned about your family through Tammy Trentacoste. When she lived in NC, we were in disciple Bible study class together and prayed for you often. It was a bittersweet moment when Tammy moved away:( I know she wanted to be home again in Florida. Anyway, I am a Charlotte native (Weddington is 5-10 minutes outside of Charlotte) so if I can help, please email me. Tammy would be a good source of information as well. I am always so impressed with all that your family does (shows, amusement parks, fundraisers, all the doctor/hospital visits, days at the beach, and so on)...it motivates me to live each day to the fullest. We haven't been to disney yet, but we will be going this fall. My 5 year old associates Florida with Mickey Mouse and where Sydney lives...so she thinks when we go to Disney, we will also go and visit Sydney. I tried to explain to her that we don't really know you even though it feels as if we do. Best of luck with your move!

I rejoice with you in the Greatness of God!! That is wonderful for your family!! I am a great believer in St Joseph, I placed Kevin's name on his statue for his help in the job hunt as I have for many others (also finding jobs). I also know that if you buy a small statue of St Joseph & bury him in your yard he also helps houses sell faster. (Have also had friends find great success with this!) You can look on line & see this is known by others. Be assured of my constant Prayers for Sydney & all of you. Peggy

HI! Praise the Lord for supplying the need...
We are about 2 hours north of Charlotte, in Greensboro, but we do have family and friends in the surrounding areas of the metro area. Let me know if you need a realtor and I will ask my brother-in-law (he is in Waxhaw; great area and great schools!)
Sydney continues to remain in our prayers... I will never forget the first day we met your family at Sloan. Both James and Sydney were receving 3F8, and James was yelling out about a "certain area of pain"... I was so embarassed, and came to apologize, but you guys said not to worry!
Good luck with the move!
Again, please let me know if you need any info...

I have been following Sydney's story for about a year now and have been truly inspired by her. Children with cancer are wise beyond their years. Congrats on the new job! I live 40 minutes north of Charlotte in Statesville. Keep your faith as you are challenged with this move and the sell of your house. Times are trying and Satan is is gleeming. The glorious thing about NC is you are close to the mountains as well as the coast. If there is a chance our paths could crossed I would be honored to be in Sydney's presense. In His name!

Michelle that truly is an amazing story of faith and courage, trusting your intuition like that at such a precarious moment. I am rejoicing with you all. Kevin is a wonderful person and his new employer is very lucky to have him. You must all be so excited =:)
Hope you knees are feeling better too now Sydney.
Love always to you and your family.

What an awesome God we serve! What amazing news to hear of how He is providing for your family! It's neat to see how many people are from the Charlotte area. I've grown up in different suburbs of Charlotte and live just north of Charlotte now. I'd be more than happy to help any way I can. I'll be praying for your house to sell and all the details to start falling into place!

My dad lives in the Charlotte area and my brother is a minister in that area. They actually live in the Huntersville area - nice area for kids so you may want to check it out. Glad to hear your worries are turning around. And as always - prayers for Syd are continuous.

The great thing about Charlotte is your close proximity to both the beaches and beautiful mountains. That's one thing we love about Raleigh. Let us know what we can do to help.

Hold onto the Unseen Hand, I have learned the hard way, worry will nearly kill u so just trust no matter what comes. Everything can seem like going down the tubes, but He is in control of all of it. Read the Book, Michelle. One day none of this will matter, PRAISE GOD, we will be with Him in complete peace, this earth is just a learning and testing ground, the practice before the real play. The trials and tribulations draw us to Him or push us away, our choice. You are His witness!! love in Him, the Cannons

Dear Sydney,
Courage and bravery do not even begin to describe what your life says to me. I found your web-site because I was looking for a very special gift for my best friend's birthday. She turned 40 years old on April 9(a rough one for grown-ups, especially ladies,LOL!)But she was diagnosed with breast cancer last October, and not unlike you, has gone through a mindboggling amount of treatment in the last few months. Although all her birthdays should have been just as special, I guess as her best friend, I had never even stopped to really think about what a birthday is supposed to be, a CELEBRATION of our LIVES!! I have never been so thankful as I was this week for every year she's lived, and so... finding her gift was important to me. I feel so blessed to have found the perfect gift, one of your necklaces!! I know she'll love it, and knowing her, she herself will probably write to you as well! (you may be friends before you know it!!) Imagine that you are encouraging "40"year old women!!! I want you to know that I am, and will sincerely and earnestly pray for you and your recovery, to be swift and complete!! My friend, her name is Robin, is an amazing person,too, and I know she will also pray (probably even more earnestly than I can cause she know's what you're going through even more than I could)God Bless you, Sydney!
Love, Adria

Please share what type of job Kevin is looking for because some one out here might be able to make a contact for him. Also let us know in what state and area he is keeping his search. I know that networking is the easiest way to find a job and maybe a friend of a friend will find just the right job for him.

can i ask you to pray fora australian 5 year old girl with neuroblastoma here is her grandpas update tonight
April 4
The news this evening is not that great. Kahlilla had a CT scan today and the results revealed that the remnants of the original dormant tumour around her left kidney has grown significantly and now envelops 2 large blood vessels and is pressing against the ureters from both kidneys.
There are not many options for Kahlilla and there is elevated risk of kidney failure if the tumour continues to grow.
There are also 2 spots on/in her liver suspected to be neuroblastoma tumours also.
We are taking a night and a day to consider options and risks, and the likely course of action is to start a chemo treatment on Sunday. This treatment is a stage 2 trial and looks like her best hope.
What is there to say?
Please give her your all. Your prayers, light, well wishes, zen, positive energy and love.
Enjoy this moment beautiful people.

let's not forget that new treatments are still in the works. whilst the disease is stable i think there is good reason to keep the patient intact and as much in one piece as possible for reasons of not just physical benefit but for psychological well being. let's not jump to any hasty conclusions. as much as anyone i want sydney to live, i also want her to be happy and feel good about herself.

Hi guys, We miss you all very much. I'm glad that Syd's headaches aren't as bad and I really hope that she doesn't have a UTI. Those aren't any fun at all. I have to tell you what Makenzie said today about Kevin...she was talking about who's the boss of who and it went in order of age. She got to Randy and said that Kevin Sims is the boss of daddy and the boss of Kevin is the Empire State Building (due to Kevin's height)!

Easter Reflections
by : Helen Steiner Rice,
With OUR EYES we see
the beauty of Easter
as the earch awakens once more...
With OUR EARS we hear
the birds sing sweetly
to tell us Spring again is here...
With OUR HANDS we pick
the golden daffodils
and the fragrant hyacinths...
But only with OUR HEARTS
can we feel the MIRACLE of GOD'S LOVE
which redeems all men...
And only with OUR SOUL
can we make our 'pilgrimage to God'
and inherit His Easter Gift of ETERNAL LIFE.
I pray for a blessed Easter for your family

Dear Michelle,
I just got this site from my my space friend Nancy kelly today. Sydney is a beautiful little girl. You can tell she is her mom's daughter. My maillady also has a daughter with a brain tumor and cancer from it, they can not take it out because it is in a bad place. I pray for her, I am praying and watching the updates on nancy every day and know I will do the same with Sydney. I am a very big hearted person and a good listener. I hate to hear people are sick. I went through it myself when I was 22 and had hemmmorging in my intestines for 6 months and should have died and had no one there for me, my husband at the time left me for a Harley that his mom said she would get him if he dumped me because I would never get better but I prayed all the time and they called me a miracle walking because I would not give up because I thought I had a husband to go home to but I was wrong, when I got out after 6 months I got served papers 3 days later. There is hope and I will be praying for Sydney and be her for you if you need. You can call me at anytime if you need to talk my numbers are: (home)1-618-244-1346 and (cell)1-618-237-2724
I am up at hours I am up till past 4am so if you need to talk please call I am 38 years old just so you know I am not some kid (lol).
All my prayers and love,

Sydney I love your outfit you modelled for the fashion show, the color and style suits you very well and it is so nicely accessorised - you look fabulous. No-one could have guessed that you were feeling unwell that day. I am sorry to hear you get migraines too, I know that you can't do anything when you have one but sleep it off - which for me takes hours. Here's hoping those bad head days clear up and stay away. Wishing you all the best Sydney and Sims family.

When people ask about them, it's a beautiful opportunity to expand the circle of love around you and let others know of your bright and courageous spirit in the midst of your battle with cancer.

I'm sorry I couldn't stay long enough afterwards to say hello, but I had to pick up Darci from Cheerleading practice. How exciting that you get to keep that cool outfit you modeled at the show! The color looks so good on you. Thank your mom for fixing my loneliest road sydlet. Take care. Love and miss you and praying for you always, Aunt Lori

It's amazing the amount of treatment you have had in the past...you are just an incredible young lady and you do everything with a smile. You know that I always pray for you daily, but I will kick it into overdrive as your scans approach. I can't even imagine the fear and anxiousness that you all feel. Hang tough sweetie and have fun in the fashion show tonight! Hugs and prayers today and always.
Here's a sparkling picture for such a sparkling girl!

Boy, you just spoke the words of what all of us cancer mom's feel inside, but are afraid to share. Thank you. This battle is tough, especially when our children are older and they know what is going on. My daughter started her battle at 4 and had NO CLUE what was happening, today she is 12 and understands way more than she should.
We will be sending strong prayers and positive energy for excellent results on tests.
With love from the heart.

Hi Sydney!
I've been praying for you for quite a while, but never left a message here. Well, now I'm jealous enough to do it--the dress, the jewelry, the make-up, and Saks! I don't even think we have a Saks in NC (okay, maybe, but not close to me!). I know your Mom will have a beautiful picture of you to share next week. And maybe you'll get a bit of a break in school like my son gets...he has CAT tests next week, also, and he LOVES them....because it means no homework for the week! Have a wonderful week and enjoy your fashion show. I know you'll have an extra proud family enjoying it and lots of folks out here praying for all of you to have a great time!

You are certainly in my prayers that God gives you even more courage and strength than you have already shown in your fight to show strength for Sydney. I also pray that he gives you peace of mind, comfort in His strength and hope for a bright future for her. We pray the same for Sydney and the rest of your family. We have followed Sydney's story for several years and know God will provide all that you need. My daughters (ages 9 and 7) and I pray for your family regularly. My oldest daughter even donated hair to locks of love in honor of Sydney and Taylor Arrington this past summer.

It was wonderful to see you Sunday at Sak's....but no fair coming up the escalator already looking like a model, what's that all about?? I can't wait to see what you picked out for an outfit and to see the picture your mom is going to post. Luckily Peyton only tried on two dresses before she picked THE ONE. I bet you dragged mom all over the store!! Good for you.
We're praying for better counts and for healing for your body.

Sweet Sydney,
I have been so bad about not making it around to my "caringbridge kids" since I got so sick. I wanted to stop by tonight after I saw your name on the prayer list. You are such an incredible young woman Sydney. You have been through so much. You always impress me as you seem to hit home runs with the lemons that are thrown your way!
I've got to step up those prayers a little bit so the docs can figure something out about you. I want that horrid cancer to go away and stay away. Until then, here's a little sunshine for you. Know that you are always in my prayers sweetheart. Stay strong!

Sydney, I have not written in a long while. I just never have the words to say, I guess. I always pray for you, sweet girl. You are so strong~! I recently found out I have breast cancer and I am under going chemo and of course, my hair is gone. I look at your sweet picture and you are such an inspiration to me to be strong and keep going. I think to myself...if this child can handle not having hair and go through the pain she has gone through...why can't I? Like I said, you have always been in my prayers...please remember me. When you feel down and feel like giving up, I pray God will give you a nudge of strength and comfort letting you know I am praying for you~!

Hi Sydney, just wanted you to know that I check in on you every day and your awesome smile just stays at the front of my mind. I love the new pictures your mom posted, they are beautiful.
I so wish you didn't have so much trouble with all of these darn treatments. You, without a doubt, are one of the strongest people I know (followed by the rest of your family!) I cannot imagine you just being you, having to deal with the whole normal middle school stuff (the good stuff, the friends and the not-so-easy times all girls face) AND keeping up this insane schedule with long clinic visits, all sorts of tests and lots of travel time. I don't know how you do it and still smile with so much radiance- you are just one amazing kid.
I love my Sydlets that I purchased way back in December at the party at Jessie's house. I receive compliments on them almost EVERY SINGLE DAY! Really! I hope you guys are still finding time (and energy) to crank out a few more. If you're out selling them somewhere, let us know. Oh, one thing- I don't really take them off and the other day after I went nuts de-griming (is that a word?) my house with various cleaning potions, I noticed that the silver beads and the cancer ribbon charm definitely lost some of their luster, and the crystals and pearls now look they could use a simple cleaning...what should I use? What do you use to clean them? With the different beads/silver/pearls, I'm not sure what I could use safely. So I turn to the manufacturer, you guys- the pros!
I pray every single day that the vaccine will be humanized soon and you can just get rid of this monster. I share your story with everyone (yeah, people don't know when they ask about the bracelets that there's such a cool kid behind them!) I still think that the Loneliest Road campaign and journey is just the coolest thing...it affected me in such a powerful way.
Hope you're enjoying the weekend. Your brother sure stays busy too, doesn't he? I don't know if you get dragged around to everything like I used to for my little brother and sister. My brother and I are fifteen months apart, so I think about you guys when I think about how we were such different students, and how we used to pick on each other really bad. Are you the oldest or is Drew? I forget. I hope you guys have a good relationship, it's nice to have someone around to ask opinions about why boys are so weird and to have the whole 'protective' thing- even when you don't get along.
I hope you're planning to be in the PCF fashion show coming up...I can't wait, as I will get to go for the first time. Heard lots of good things and seen so many great pictures- what a neat fundraiser.
I'm sorry that I'm so bad about reminding you and your family just how much my family (and so many others!!) care so much for you. I will continue to pray without ceasing for NB to just go away somehow- only you know just rotten it can be, but I hope you always know that you are one loved (and really admired) little lady!
Love and FROG,
Shelley Clements

Hey Sydney!!
I was thinking about you all day yesterday. Everywhere I went people were asking me for Hannah Montana songs and I was really wishing I had you there to help me sing them!!
I'm sorry this treatment doesn't seem to be working for you. I know your NY doctors will be able to find a plan B as your mom suggested, because you have some really great doctors here.
Good luck on Friday at your appointment, I'll be praying your platelets are up and you get your way (I think you deserve it!!).
I miss seeing your smiling face around here, but I'm happy you're home with your family. Say hi to mom and dad for me. And your brother too, but I think I scared him, I didn't realize he was so shy when I first met him!! Ooops :)
You are in my prayers Sydney.

The potato treatment sounds amazing too - the only problem is you need to wait for a full moon. Why not try the urine treatment and the potato as well? well if nothing else i hope these (wonderful) ideas make you laugh Sydney! the things you learn on Sydney site.
Lisa Bonnet <lisalilybet@bigpond.com>
Sydney, - Tuesday, February 5, 2008 7:55 PM CST
i know it sounds gross but I recently read a magazine story of a lady who cured her breast cancer by drinking her own urine .. and she continues to do it regularly. she says it's actually pretty tasteless and she actually carries some of it with her daily, to drink when she needs it. apparently this is a really old folklore remedy. well i'm certainly not recommending that for Sydney.
But to just soak your warts in it? yes you know i think it could work. i have heard many years ago that urine is good for feet - (must contain some naturally formed antibodies?) .. is what i am thinking. get rid of those damned warts Sydney. love to you always.

Dear Sydney, Hi I am a neuroblastoma patient too. I am 11. I had warts and this is what I did. Believe me, it worked, my dr. could not believe it either!! My neighbor took a potato, cut it in half, when there was a full moon, she rubbed them all over my warts, my hands were covered in them, so bad they would bleed, my gram took the potato and planted it in her back yard, one day me and my mom went outside and the plant was growing, I looked down and my warts were all gone, honest, not kidding, my doctor even wrote about it in my files, no one could believe it!! try it

Hey Sydney,
I had six plantar warts across the bottom of my foot when I was 13. I finally had to have them surgically removed they got so bad. Just do what the doc's say. Stubborn plantar's must run in the family. Glad to hear you are hanging in there!

I don't know if you have tried this, but I heard rubbing a potato on the warts then throwing the potato away works. From personal experience, when I was about Sydney's age burning and freezing never worked (they came right back). What did work was hypnotisim. My dermatologist hypnotized me three times and the warts went away and never came back. Best of luck

Hi Sydney! I'm glad you got to go to the amusement park, even if you couldn't go on some of the rides...I can't go on some types of roller coasters either because of my shunt. It sucks to be left out of something you really enjoy! I'll be praying for you to be able to start chemo again soon, and for it not to attack your counts so much.

Tampa, FL - Saturday, February 2, 2008 2:57 PM CST
Our Dear Friends of Peter,
We have 3 kids, 16-year old Jonathan, 13-year old Peter and 4-year old Catherine. Peter was diagnosed with neuroblastoma stage IV on 7/31/1997. His oncologists said he could live up to 4-6 months back then.
He had 3 bone marrow transplants at Fairfax Hospital where he was born, 90+ rounds of conventional chemotherapy and 696 bags of blood product transfusions (believe it or not) in the past 10 years. In 2000, he was sent to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) in NYC for the clinical treatment. After 4 courses of treatment, he had a 9-hour surgery in 2001. After all in 2004, they said their protocol doesn’t accept him anymore.
In March 2006, he was transported to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) by helicopter from Fairfax Hospital. After he had 3 courses of their clinical therapy, the principal investigator said in late July that their treatment is no longer an option for Peter anymore since his tumors are too aggressively progressing. His Fairfax oncologists said this fall would be it. The hospice nurse was coming every Tuesday and Thursday for better pain management and extra supply of oxygen at home while Peter was visiting the clinic every Monday, Wednesday and Friday for blood product transfusion.
We celebrated his 10th year anniversary of diagnosis on 7/31/2006. He’s never been in remission though. He became a teenager on 8/9. The parish priest at St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church got an instant approval from the Bishop to give Peter the Confirmation on his 13th birthday. On 9/8 (Sat), the priest came to our house to give him the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick. Another blessing for Peter.
In 1998 Peter's dream was fulfilled by the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He was blessed by Pope John Paul II in Vatican City, Italy. The arrangement by the Foundation was just wonderful. Peter held the Cross which was blessed by the Pope with him.
After all, Peter passed away peacefully in his bedroom on 9/11/2007 in the morning while mom, dad, Jonathan and Catherine were watching. We had his Funeral Mass at St. Catherine of Siena on 9/15 and buried his body at Arnon Chapel Cemetery across from Great Falls Elementary School .
About 6-7 years ago, Peter said "Mom, do you know, in Heaven, there are so many more trees and lots of flowers than our house? There were no roads but paths made of two different colors of green grass. It seemed like everyone had their own houses. I was behind the bushes, and God sat in a chair in the middle of the garden watching my friends. Karen, Wei-Wei, Big Philip, and Tish were running around while Jasmine was asking something of Mother Mary. I was hiding behind the bushes, but God said He knew where I was and asked me to come out. I watched them playing for a while, then He told me to go home.”
After this dream, he had several more years with us at home. Peter heard the same voice of God on 9/28 and again 9/6. God said “Wake up, Peter! Wake up. You need to wake up."
Exactly one week before he passed away, after platelets transfusion was over, he said "This is the message from God truly. Keep it up. Stay happy. Don't ever look down." I believe Peter has conveyed the message to all of us, which we will keep his legacy and fulfill his dream.
Fondly,
Ed Choo <edchoo@yahoo.com>

I hope you were able to enjoy your trip. It stinks about not being able to ride the rides, but I just know that you were able to find some really exciting things to do.

Glad to hear Sydney is doing well, and that Drew only has a sinus infection. Snow is great! This morning we awoke a four inch blanket of snow and snow days for all of the public schools! Unfortunatley colleges aren't as forgiving so I still had school! Don't forget to take a picture of Sydney with her new wig! Enjoy the snow!

Hi Sydney, Drew, Michelle and Kevin!
I am so glad that Sydney is doing well and that Drew is fine too. That was a horrible feeling just reading your entry. I can understand why you would come to those conclusions. Have an awesome time this weekend and throw some snowballs for me!!! Also.......Sydney, can you make a snow angel for me!! I loved doing that during the winter time as a kid. Have a safe trip and looking forward to the fun pictures when you get back. Love, Val

Michelle, Sydney & family, I have finally got my act together to respond to your info re Sydney's knee damage.
I have sent you an email re this. There are supplements which I believe can help. But there is also the power of love and self belief in healing.
You have a ton of self belief Sydney. Love and prayers always because they are a big help too!

I got my Sydlet in the mail today and I'm so excited!!! It is beautiful and I can't wait to show it off to my mom. I'm hoping she will get one for herself soon!! I hope you are enjoying the last few days of your break. I will be praying for you and your family for strength through this next round of chemo. I know this is YOUR year and I'm BELIEVING IN YOU.

Hi,Sydney. My name is Sydney,too. I am also 11 years old. I got a Sydlet bracelet for Christmas this year. I like my bracelet alot. It means alot to me. I like it 1. because it's is for your cause, so all the money my mom paid for it goes to you, so you can get better. Also because it has a cheerleader on it. I have a love for cheerleading. I really do hope you are feeling good, and that you are getting better. If you ever have any spare time, and would like to message me you can. Here is my e-mail address: HUGSandKISSESx96@aim.com.

Hey Sydney-
I'm still praying for good results from NY. How about the bump on your leg? Is it getting any better? I really hope so. I've been saying many prayers that it clears up and stops hurting you.
I was reading my friend Matty's (visit/matty) website and his mom posted something interesting...not "Happy New Year," but "Have A New Year." I think it's great and I hope you have a new year... A year with no pain, a year that finds you with NED, and a year spent at home making many new memories with your awesome family!!
Please know that you are always in my thoughts and prayers.
With Love, Kyle
