I am not certain how often you check this site anymore but had vivid memories of our time together in New York and wanted to touch base with you. I will be going back to work with my dad in Larose and will hopefully get to see you guys. I bet Taylor is much bigger now. Anyway I often think of Maddie, she is certainly one of a kind.
Seeing her again is something I look forward to.
Richie's scans have been clear for 2 years now. For that we are grateful. Please keep in touch. Richie's website is www.caringbridge.org/visit/richiedesonier. In fact I think it was you that introduced me to this site. Love and prayers, Michelle

You are thought of always. My son Jack was in treatment with Madison but we were always on different daily schedules that I didn't have the oppurtunity to know you guys as well as some of our other SLOAN families. I knew of you though and remember seeing you and that beautiful smile of hers. I pray for your continued stregnth. Madison is ofcourse a hero....you all are warriors during and in the aftermath. I just was checking in. I always look for new updates but I don't always write when I visit. I know it has been sometime since you have written and I hope you are all well. Your words as a mother bring me to tears as this battle is not one I would wish on anyone. Jack has scans on Monday to make sure there is nothing new popping up. He has been NED for sometime now. I think our lil angels above have had something to do with that. Looking out for the ones going through this. I know that it may not be much comfort knowing you would do anything to have her here, but know she is, and her work above is being done everyday by looking after her family and the ones that are left fighting neuroblastoma. I am humbled by knowing your story and continue to keep Madison and your family in my heart everyday. Much continued love and stregnth, The Demers

Well, on the 27th of Febuary this year, a boy I knew died. I boy I liked. I boy that was my friend, but not my "boyfriend"

In the mist of my greif, I came accross your site. Now I know Kyle is flying high with your little baby.

And knowing that Kyle can be with someone as inspiring as her makes me feel so much better.

I'm not sure if you remember me, but I'm Landon Pitre's mom. Madi and Landon were battling NB at Tulane together. Since the hurricane, we've relocated to St. Jude's. We're heavily thinking about Sloan Kettering in New York, can you shed any light?

I'm so sorry to have heard that Madi lost her battle with NB...may you find peace in your days. Landon has suffered a relapse in Aug 05, and is still fighting. You can keep up with his story at www.caringbridge.org/visit/landonpitre .

Happy New Year to you all.

Hi Tonya, it's so great to hear from you. I think of you all often, and I still talk about Madison often. She is the first patient I ever fell in love with, and she taught me so much about myself, as a nurse and as a human being. God gave her to all of us for a reason, and I'm not quit sure why he took her back so quickly, but he knew all of our lives would be changed, in a good way, FOREVER! Everything that you are feeling now is because you loved Madison, so don't ever feel guilty, give yourself time to grieve. But also, don't forget to smile every now and then, because I know that's what Madison would want you to do!!

New York, NY USA (Home is Australia) - Saturday, February 18, 2006 10:58 PM CST

Hi, Tanya, Aaron and Taylor
I don't know if you remember my son Philip from Sloan and Ronald Mcdonald House. My son and I arrived in late July and will still be there for one more month. Philip used to play sometimes with Madison as they were the same height and almost the same age. He has always enjoyed kids his own age but has not had much time to do so since he was diagnosed over a year ago. For the first 7 weeks It was just Philip and me(Dad). Jill, his mom, came up once in that period, but she is now with him while I stay home and keep things in order. We were caught up in our own little world at the same first week of Oct. Philip was having the surgery to save his life on that friday. As you well know, people come and go so often at Sloan and Ronald that many times someone you saw for a long time is all of a sudden gone and you hope that they just went home and nothing bad happened. We always stayed away completely from caringbridge until after his successful surgery meant we could at least have a hope for the future. I was too depressed to handle any other bad news but our own. I'm sad to finally find out tonight that the reason Philip never got to play with Madison again was the worst reason possible. I don't know what to say that can help you in any way. All I can say is that I remember her and Philip playing in the little house inside the playroom at Sloan and that's the memory I will always have of her and Philip. Sitting at that little table just being kids.

Your right, he is so young to have experienced so much. God Bless your Angel and your family. My Scott has been gone 21 months and I have not packed his things.

You can't imagine how thrilled I was to visit Madi's website and to see that you have come up for air. Realizing that you are right there in Larose does my heart good as well. Please please let me know when you are up for a visit. We would love having you guys over here too.
Remember joy shared is double joy, sorrow shared is half sorrow. We have had good and bad times together in New York that are held close to our hearts. In the meantime, remember that in the Bible, God promises a resurrection of our dear loved ones to life in a paradise earth.(John 5:28)
And the thing about God is that, he has NEVER made a promise that he hasn't kept. Having known Madi makes us look forward to that day more than ever. Until we speak, know that we care.

Hi, Tanya, Aaron & Taylor

I admire you so much, Tanya, for continuing to update madison's page from time to time. It's good to know how you are going, and be assured that what you are experiencing is a natural reaction. Don't ever listen to anyone who tells you you should pull yourself together, or get over it, or anything else stupid and ignorant like that. Mourning is a very individual process, and there is no right or wrong way - just YOUR way.

Many, many people all over the world understand what you are going through, and if prayers were flowers, your garden would be overflowing.

Falls Church, VA - Wednesday, January 18, 2006 1:46 PM CST

hi hun, i am sorry for that has happened. I found your site through a friend's caringbridge site whose child is also going through a similar dx. please do NOT feel you will depress others by journalling your hurts, pain & emptiness. If you find journalling an outlet for your emotiions then by all means go ahead. Madison would want you to be happy and if journalling how you're feeling eases the pain & numbness even by a milli micro tiny grain of sand then you should journal away. though you might feel others might get depressed from what you have written, in your writings you teach others to cherish life, live it to the fullest and spend the most time & love their families especially their children unconditionally each day as if it would be their last. Also when you journal how you are really feeling, your family & friends who are reading will say a prayer for you on the other hand i have learned that if we put on a brave front to keep others from feeling bad about the way we feel, those who love us most will think we arent doing too bad when we're really crumbling inside and needing a listening ear, a warm hug and just someone to cry right along with you. i do not know you. but my heart goes out to you. may you find peace & joy inspite of all that has happened i know Maddison would want nothing less for you , Taylor & Aaron.

"Merry Christmas From Heaven"

I still hear the songs
I still see the lights
I still feel your love
on cold winter nights

I still share your hopes
and all of your cares
I'll even remind you
to please say your prayers

I just want to tell you
you still make me proud
You stand head and shoulders
above all the crowd

Keep trying each moment
to stay in HIs grace
I came here before you
to help set your place

You don't have to be
perfect all of the time
He forgives you the slip
If you continue the climb

To my family and friends
please be thankful today
I'm still close beside you
In a new special way

I love you all dearly
now don't shed a tear
Cause I'm spending my
Christmas with Jesus this year

Tanya and Aaron,
I just wanted to pass this info your way. If you have a chance please check out another Caringbridge web page: Illinois, Rory. Rory's dad Tom is hosting a grief workshop in Rockford, in Nov and Dec. You can get more info if you go to the journal history and read his Oct. 17th entry.
I am so sorry for your loss.I read the following and it made me think of Madison:
A butterfly lights beside us
Like a sunbeam,
And for a brief moment,
It�s glory and beauty
Belong to our world.
But then it flies on again.
And although we wish
It could have stayed,
We feel blessed
to have seen it.

New Orleans, LA - Wednesday, October 26, 2005 9:59 PM CDT

Dear Tanya,
So glad to see that you finally came up for air.
The intense love that I saw Madison have for you and the love she and Taylor have for one another is a beautiful tribute to you as a mom. Of all of the moms of children with cancer you ranked at the top of the list always knowing every little detail of Maddie's treatment every step of the way. In talking to Aaron recently, he said you were out looking for work. You should consider working at a medical facility with all of the knowledge you have acquired. But then again, you probably want to take a big long break from hospitals or anything medical.
Nevertheless, we are here "Down the Bayou" wondering and hoping that you guys eventually make it back here.
Don't let Taylor lose that wonderful cajun accent.
Let us know if we can help you in any way.
Tell Aaron, Richie's marinol is working out pretty well.
He gained 6 pounds after his last chemo. We probably should
have listened to Aaron sooner.
Our love and prayers to you all
David Michelle and Richie Desonier

There's NOTHING I wouldn't do to be able to know for sure that my baby girl will grow up to be a beautiful adult, experience love, have children of her own, and LIVE to her fullest. I can't imagine life without her, Tanya, and I am so sorry for your loss because it HAS to be unbearable. The worst feeling in this world is the UNKNOWN! I know you'll keep fighting with us. WE LOVE YA'LL

My feelings are of compassion and love right now...for Madison, and all of your family.
I never knew that day when my sister and I were getting our hair done, in the beauty parlor, that God would change our lives forever in a way that was so very profound...
Every Christmas Season, a large group of friends and my sister and me, try to do something special for someone, and that day in the beauty parlor,God spoke very loudly and cleary...when He revealed to us from a close friend of Madison's one of her dreams...
She loved to watch the Christmas Carolers on television!
I never knew that we were about to try to make try to make a little girl named Madison's Christmas a little brighter by Chritmas Caroling at her house.
I'll never forget her beautiful smile and her delight as we all gathered to sing to her and the family.
It melted my heart to be invited into her life even just for a little while...
I thank God every day for introducing her to us...
and it melts my heart in a different way, now that she's gone with God...
God chose Madison in a big and special way...
He sent her here to love us in ways we didn't even know we would...
He gave Madison very special angel parents to love and care for her...
and the hardest part is letting her go...
None of us can ever truly know your pain...or your loss...
All we can do is continue to pray for you and love you.
I know that little Madison has touched my life very deeply and she will remain in my heart and prayers forever...
and so will you...
God Bless You and Your beautiful family...

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Madison is now in the arms of the angels. Here is a poem that you might find helpfull

I'm Free

Don't Greive for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard him call
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way
I found that place at the close of day.

If my passing has left a void
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss.
Ah yes, these things, I too, will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow.
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.

Perhaps my time seemed all to brief;
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me
God wanted me now, he set me free.

Dear Tanya, Aaron & Taylor,
I am in shock also and words cannot express the sorrow I feel for your family. I cannot stop thinking about Madison. She will forever be in my heart. I remember her sitting on my knee at the Christmas in July party at the Ronald and my very last memory of her was the day Dylan was discharged from hospital, I brought her in some bubbles and an Elmo toy. I never thought that would be the last time I saw her, and I never thought that would be her final admission. Please know that her memory will stay with me always, I will miss her smiling face. When I told Dylan, I asked if he was sad that Madison was gone and he said, she is happy in heaven because you can do what ever you want, he said she has lots of candy! Madison is a rest now, a beautiful angel, but for you it will be very difficult. I know this pain will never leave you but I pray that in time, it will ease. I cannot imagine my life without Dylan, so the pain you are feeling must be unbearable. Madison would not want you to be so sad, she will always be with you, and one day you will all meet again, in a place so beautiful, a safe and peaceful place. Stay in touch my friends.
Love & Hope
Melissa and Dylan xoxo

You all will be in my thoughts and prayers daily from this time forward that god wraps his arms around you and comforts you. Please take each day one at a time. Baby steps. I lost my son Cameron in July of this year and it has been 4 months this month. The wounds are so very fresh. As tears roll down my face this evening you all are being prayed for deeply.

Hi. You don't know me but it doesn't matter. I'm just one of the thousands and thousands of people who are with you and I would really just like to reach out for you and give you my heart and soul. I am a mom of two little children and I am so lucky. Taylor, I don't know you either but I know that you will use this "situation" for something good, you will make a difference in this world, I know it. Go to school, learn and give back. I'm not a very religious person but I have read Beebo's website and you should read it too, it is so inspiring. They went to see someone who could speak with the ones on "the other side".
I really wish there was something I could do. Please hold on to each other-you will make it!

Madison will shine in Heaven with all her friends, I just missed your call this morning, wish I could just hold you Tanya and make it all ok. My heart aches for you all, Tim sends his love and is very saddened, he told me he will never forget the day Madison was picking flowers for him, she is so full of love , you will feel it,even though she is with our Lord. Tanya if there is anything you all need just call. There are so many people out there that Madison touched their lives, she will always be our Princess Angel. I am really just at a loss for words right now. Call me when you feel like talking. I love you all and always will,I am here for you in every way.

I can not tell you how sorry I am for your loss. I loved Madi and all of you with all my heart. You have all been so very strong. I will miss Madison dearly but I am so glad that I got to know her as well as all of you for the past two years. She was such a beautiful little girl and I will always keep her in my heart along with the rest of your family. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for any of you.

Love,

I pray that your family will stay strong together and help each other through this hurtful time. Only you can help each other through this by being a shoulder to cry on. It helps to get it out. And please remember to take time out and remind those around you how much they mean to you.

God Bless

To Madison's loving family,
My name is Kaitlyn. I spent some time at Sloan while my friend Ashley was being treated. I dont have enough words to express how truly sorry i am to hear this news. I am so deeply saddened because when Ashley, Erika and I spent time with Madison, it was our favorite part of the day. We would go back to Ash's room and discuss how incredibly adorable she was and how much we loved her. I have read all of the journals that were written, and it makes me upset to see how much she went through. But it also shows how loving her family was through this tragic time. You never left her side and made the best of the time you had with her. You guys are so strong. You have a beautiful guardian angel watching over you all, and my thoughts and prayers will be with you.
P.S- I would love to see those pictures we took with Madison and Ashley. My two favorite girls from Sloan.

To the family of a very special little girl, and also to everybody that knew her, and also to those who she touched,

I am a dear friend of Melissa Dylan and their family. No words can change this pain for you, but I hope they can help to soothe it for you all.

Throughout her suffering you prayed for her to be pain free, and now she is. She is happy in the streets of heaven with all the other boys and girls who have been taken before their time, and also many many wonderful adult spirits up there will care for her eternally while she can watch down on her family.

No more suffering sweet little girl.

My prayers and thoughts are with you all at this time.

Oh God, Tanya, Aaron and Taylor,

I am so so SORRY for your loss. You know how much we prayed for Madison and loved ya'll from the moment ya'll came to Children's Hospital. We were sad to see you go then, but we always kept in touch via email. Madison and Juliett shared a special bond because they shared the same disease at the same time, their transplants were both done in Feb 2004.

Tanya, you have been so brave, and like me, never left your daughter's side while she was ill. Aaron, you are the cool dad, and Madi will always be Daddy's lil girl. She could do everything because nothing is worse than what these children go through. Taylor, you have been affected by all of this at a time when childhood is so important...stay strong! Families, remember how important it is to stay close. Cherish every single day for today.

It is with a broken heart l leave this message. I dont even know what to say, but, I will never forget the first and last time I saw Maddy. The first time I met Maddy, she greeted me with a beautiful smile. The last time I saw Maddy was at the RMH foyer where she gave me a hug and that beautiful smile. And everyday in between, she greeted me with that same beautiful smile. She touched my heart, as she did everybody that she met. I will never forget Maddy for she is in my heart, as is the whole family.

Augusta, KS - Wednesday, October 5, 2005 11:05 PM CDT

Dear Taylor, Tanya and Aaron,
Words cannot express the feelings we have here in our home
over the news about Madi. We had hoped that somehow, someway she could have survived all of the critical times she was going through. I guess it was all too much to ask of a little body that had been going through too much for too long. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that we will see Madi again. Only this time on a paradise earth with no more sickness, sorrow, pain, or death.(Rev 21:3,4) No more chemos, transfusions, finger sticks,ports, surgeries things that shouldn't even be in a child's vocabulary.
Everyday there are signs that fulfill the Bible's prophecy that we are living in the time of the end of this system. We have to be close.
If our hearts are all broken over all of the children suffering and dying of cancer just think how our Creator feels. He sees it all. He has to put an end to it soon. He just has too. Until the time comes when we see Madi again, our Love, prayers and best wishes are with all of you,

To Madison's Family,

It took a while today for me to be able to write to you. I was devastated this morning when I heard the news. I did
not think I could feel anymore pain than I have felt this year after watching all of the families at Ronald McDonald
House and Sloan. I still thank GOD that I had my family
at RMH to get me through the worst time of our lives. I know
how you feel right now. It is so hard watching them so sick that it becomes exhausting and painful to watch. Yet to think of letting go is even less comprehendable. As I told
you a month or so ago "MY ANGEL ASHLEY" loved Madison and
spoke about her right up until the day she passed away (JULY 26th, 2005). I will never forget MAdison's beautiful face and smile. Those eyes that could make you melt. I remember Ashley,Madison,Erika and Kaitlyn in the playroom at the hospital drawing pictures for everyone's doors and
taking pictures of each other. Ashley was so sad that she was to sick to make it in and see Madison again. I know
that they are together that Ashley was waiting for her as
soon as she got to Heaven "WITH ANGEL DAVID" and the rest
of all those special children that God has another bigger
plan for.I know that I will never forget Madison and all of her family. I just pray that you find the strength with all you have had to endure to get through this time. I have
you all in my heart and prayers.

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be,
He closed His arms around you
and Whispered, "Come to Me".

In tears we saw you sinking;
We watched you fade away,
Our hearts were almost broken,
You fought so hard to stay.

But, when we saw you sleeping,
So peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

So treasure her Lord,
In your garden of rest,
For here on earth,
She was one of the best.

---------------------------------
I know that No words will ever bring you comfort at such a crap time in your life.
I started the same journey just over a month ago, take it one day at a time, and remember, there is no right or wrong ways to feel...
I couldn't cry at Jamie/Beebo's funeral, but have cried nearly everyday since

Those we love do not leave us, they stay forever in our hearts

I'm am really sorry even though you have probably heard it a thousnad times..... My first friend that ever died of a disease had "pre" Leukemia and it was really hard at first but now it isn't so bad, Obviously you never forget them because they have made a mark that you carry in your mind for the rest of your life, That they fought bravely and taught you guys what love and bravery is. They make you reach out and repair other broken-hearted people, one family at a time. Don't worry, Madison has gone up to Heaven because she knows her job is done and God knew it too.

Love, Sammi
P.S. I will remember Madison forever too, I promise!

Another angel takes flight.

My deepest, most sincere sympathy and condolences to each and every one of you!! Madison was a fighter; there is no doubt about that! She is now pain free, free to fly in the Heavens and watch over all of you!
We lost our precious Pam on Oct. 7, 2003, so I know what you are going through. There are no words that can ease the pain.

The worst thing that can happen to a parent is to lose a child. It feels like someone ripped your heart out. You go from the unbelievable to the unbearable.

Madison is in a good place now and I'm sure Pam is with her. She just loved children so much.

I would just like to share a saying that was on the card my wife Diane picked out, and we bought for Pam:

If you were a star
That wasn�t expected back
In the universe
For a thousand years,
I�d wait.

If you were the sky
And everyone went inside
When you got sad
And started to rain,
I�d stay.

And if you were a peach
And the world decided to get rid of all peaches,
I�d pick you up,
Put you in my pocket�

AND KEEP YOU��..FOREVER.

I would also like to share, with you and your family, a poem that was put on Pam�s website:
God's Garden

God looked around His garden
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face

He put His arms around you
And lifted you to rest
God's garden must be beautiful,
He always takes the best

He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain,
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace Be Thine."

It breaks our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone.
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.

Below is a poem that we have on a plaque dedicated to Pam:

The Broken Chain

We little knew that morning that
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly, in death
we do the same� It broke our
hearts to lose you, you did not go
alone; for part of us went with you,
the day God called you home� You
left us peaceful memories, your love
is still our guide, and though we
cannot see you, you are always at our
side� Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same;
but as God calls us one by one,
The Chain will link again.

You are all in our prayers. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

Drew would love to play with Taylor again someday. He really liked him a lot. Take care and God bless,

Dear Tanya, Aaron and Taylor,
I Know there are no words that can make this any easier for ya'll right now, but know that we are praying for your whole family. Our pray is that God will fill ya'll with his peace and his love. Know that Madison is resting in his loving arms tonight. Madison was and still is a beautiful child. When I saw her up on the alter at church right before ya'll left for NY,I knew there was something special about her. Mrs.Carol always talked about her in such awesome ways. She would tell me how brave she was and how everyone would just fall in love with her. I wish my family and I could have spent time with her, but you know we do feel like we have known her and your family just by praying for ya'll and keeping up with things on the website and with Mrs. Carol. If there is anything we can do for ya'll please give us a call. Our lives have been touched just by knowing who ya'll are.
May God Bless!

I feel lucky to have gotten to know her the little bit that I did from the playroom when we were at Sloan. She was precious! God Bless your Angel and your family.

I'm sorry Madison had to leave you so soon, but she is now restored and at peace. I look at her and see myself as a youngster and can't comprehend how unfair it is to some. But there is a reason for all life and death, isn't there? I believe there is. I pray that your pain will soon ease and that you can take comfort celebrating your lives together, cherishing every moment and remembering Madison. She's beautiful.

Dearest family of sweet Angel Madison,

I hope that Madison will look down upon your family and help you find some peace with this most difficult time. Look for her in sun showers, bright colored butterflies, and cool breezes on a warm day.

A very special boy that is very dear to my heart gained his wings a little over a month ago, so your little angel is with the most precious of God's creations.

Although I have never met you and I have only signed Madison's pages once before, I truly am heartbroken over your loss. Please have a safe trip home.

Fly, fly little wing
Fly beyond imagining
The softest cloud, the whitest dove
Upon the wind of heaven's love
Past the planets and the stars
Leave this lonely world of ours
Escape the sorrow and the pain
And fly again

Fly, fly precious one
Your endless journey has begun
Take your gentle happiness
Far too beautiful for this
Cross over to the other shore
There is peace forevermore
But hold this mem'ry bittersweet
Until we meet

Fly, fly do not fear
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear
Your heart is pure, your soul is free
Be on your way, don't wait for me
Above the universe you'll climb
On beyond the hands of time
The moon will rise, the sun will set
But I won't forget

Fly, fly little wing
Fly where only angels sing
Fly away, the time is right
Go now, find the light

I am so incredibly sorry to hear about the loss of your beautiful child. Praying for you all...

My love goes out to you and your extended family.

Dear Madison,

The first day I met you, you made a
lasting impression in my heart. You were such an angel and one of the
bravest little girl I know. Your Mommy told me how cooperative you
were with the doctors and never complained about anything. It just seems
like yesterday you were singing songs with Alexa and giving me hugs. I
will never forget the day that I visited you after your surgery, how you smiled
at me when you saw me even when you were hurting. I will miss your sweet
little face. You will forever be in my heart.

love always,

Sarah (Angel
David's Mommy)

Dear Tanya, Aaron, and Taylor,

Like I said to you earlier, eventhough I went through the same
exact experience as you all did, there are no words that I can say that will
comfort you or take your pain away. You guys were such a great family.
You were the very first family I ever met at the Ronald. You were so nice
to me and for that I thank you. The angel above was sent to me by a great
mother named Malissia when David passed away and it reminded me of Madison, I
hope it gives you the same comfort as it did to me. Our talk today was
very sad and my heartaches even more, but please know that you are not alone.
I hope that you guys have a safe trip back home. I will call you again to
check up on you later.....

Now Madison is a real Angel..........

{{{{{{{{GREAT BIG HUG}}}}}}}}}} I wish I can give you the real
thing.

love,

Sarah

I wish there was an easy way to take away Madison's pain and Taylor's confusion, but Tanya, you are doing everything you can, and those kids are so lucky to have you and Aaron - ya'll are THERE, and that's what matters most! Unfortunately, the pneumonia and fever happens, but there's medicine for that, and Madison needs you at her side. Ya'll are at a great hospital, and I know they are caring a little extra for Madison (I know I always did)! She's too special! Stay strong!

So glad Madi is in the POU. I remember how everyone just loved her so much there. When we would mention her name they all had their own "Madi stories". I know for a fact that she is in good hands there. And I know you will be happy to have Granny Helen there too. I remember how excited you all were, expecially the children, for her last visit. I wish we could be there to help support you through these critical times. Just know that we check the website everyday for an update and pray that each day brings news of recovery.

Madison will be in our prayers daily and I will request prayer for her during our church service tomorrow. Hang in there Mom & Dad It is so very difficult to watch our children hurt, but you are doing a wonderful job of loving, caring and meeting her needs. I will ask God for your peace and rest as well as Madison's healing. Love The Zucca's

I'm an Australian grandmother of two, and have been following Dylan's progress since he was fundraising in Australia for the money to get to America. I will now add you all to my prayer list, and check your site regularly when I go onto Dylan's site. Keep praying, and believe there are many prayers from all over the world for your little girl. I do hope things quickly improve for you.

From following Dylan's progress, I can see what a day-by-day or even hour-by-hour or minute-by-minute life you are leading. Hang in there, and we pray things will improve for you all.

Hi Madison & Family -
I also got your site from a link on Dylan's. I am so sorry y'all are having to go through all of this and I will definitely add you to my prayer list. I read your journal and wonder if your son might be uncomfortable talking to you about his feelings because he knows how bad you already feel & doesn't want to add to your burden. I know that the healthy members of the family(especially the kids) can take on alot of guilt for being healthy (but still needy of mom & dad's time) when their sibling is so very ill. Mom - You are doing all you can in the best way you can so don't beat yourself up. God will fill in the gaps for you :o) Brighter days are ahead - hang tough and take care! Christ's blessings on you all --

Dear Maddy and Family, I am Dylan's ChemoAngel from Australia, and I have just read on Dylan's site that Taylor is having some time away with Melissa and Dylan, so you may spend some special time devoted to Maddy when she is so desperately ill.

Please know that people around the world are thinking of you and your family at this very difficult time, and hoping and praying that Maddy will get through this ordeal. I am so sorry to learn that her stem cells were destroyed in the hurricane. Be strong for Maddy, and I am sure she knows how very much her family loves and cares for her. Will be checking your website for updates.

In the meantime, keep hope within your heart.

Dear Madi, Taylor, Tanya and Aaron,
Daily we have been checking the website for an update.
Sunday's news was critical so we sort of suspected that today's news might be as well. Triche read it out loud to us in the den and there wasn't a dry eye in the room. Richie had to go off by himself to get a grip. I hold on to several scriptures that have helped me through desparate times with Richie. The one that comes to mind is found at IS 41:10 which reads, "Do not be afraid,for I am with you. Do not gaze about for I am your God. I will fortify you. I will REALLY help you. I will keep fast hold of you with my right hand of righteousness." There are no words that I can tell you that could be stronger than these coming from the One who created us. And I have felt from the beginning that if the worse thing happens to Richie,or to anyone of my children for that matter, it would not be difficult for the One who created them to recreate them. Only this time they would be resurrected into a world with no more sickness or pain.
You are a precious family. We love you all and will pray.
Michelle and Richie Desonier

Hello,
I am sorry to hear Madi is not feeling well. She is a fighter and will bounce back. You are a great mother. I was wondering if you ever heard of Super Sibs. I bet you have, knowing you. In case you have not email me and I will get you the info. It is a wonderful organization that is just for siblings. They send them gifts, journals, etc things that help them express themselves, etc. It is all free. I know of families that I refered that have loved them. Let me know if you need the info to sign Taylor up. There are some great books on cancer for Taylor's age so if you would like me to recomend some let me know. Please give Madi a hug for me. I will keep her in my prayers.

Dear Madi, Taylor, Tanya and Aaron,
There is a saying, "Joy shared is double joy, sorrow shared is half sorrow." Know that we are with you through the ups and downs. I hope this thougt is comforting to you. Please keep us posted. In the meantime, we must all hang on to the promise in the Bible at Revelation 21:3 where it says that there will come a time very soon when "God will wipe out every tear from our eyes, and death will be no more,neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore, the former things have passed away." Until that time comes, Our love, and prayers remain with you. Michelle Richie and family.

I hope Taylor can get some help by talking with the counselor at school. Tanya, you are doing all that you can to make this easier for both kids. Indeed parents' with sick children need to be stronger than many of us. You and Aaron are doing all that you can. May God bless all of you. Love, Aunt Pam

Hello everyone, I went by your house, front door was open, but I didn't really see any damage, s few tree limbs down. Glad to hear Madison is wanting to play and eating allitle, you know I always had the Faith in Little Madison, she is a fighter and always jumps back quick! I Pray the antibodies will do the trick. We are fighting levees right now Golden Meadow crashed and now water is coming to us and they think we make get some high water in the house but Gary Schouest built a wall since this morning to protect us. Hope it holds! Aunt Micci's house was in Beaumont as all my family Jasper, Beaumont, Port Arthur, Lufkin they got it worst than we did to day but now it going to Alabama they said it is slowing down!Don't worry about your house, you know we will fix or whatever but it is safe and sound!
What will Madison get after the antibodies? Kiss her for me, my littlt Princess! Bless Taylor's heart I hate to see him going through this but you are a Wonderful Mother and I know you will make it all better. he is going through a lot for his age. I will Pray for all the Fear to go away. I love yall very much. Tomorrow we are having a Prayer for 5 minutes at 2:00 our time, I guess 3 you, not sure, but I am asking all the people that read this please join us at 2:00 Sunday for a quiet 5 minute prayer for all the children, and a little special prayer that Madison gets to feeling better after all she has been through, in just a few days. We all love her so much! Kiss the kids for me and a Big hug for you & Aaron I have been trying to call!

So sorry to hear how bad everything has been. I am praying for you and hope everyone is feeling better soon. Would it help Taylor to talk to someone his age who has gone throuhg somehting similar. If so let me know. I am sure my niece, who is almost 9 and has been through this with her sister would be willing to talk to him. Think about it and let me know. We can always give you guys a call with the cell phone. You all take care and let me know if I can do anything.

Love,

Tanya, your journal really touched me as Carolyn, Evan and I were in much the same situation. I remember how my heart literally hurt wanting to hold Evan, but knowing that Carolyn needed me more. I think the school counselor is a good idea for Taylor, no kid can handle this situation alone, and often they don't want to talk to us because they don't want to worry their parents more. Can you and Taylor get out of the hospital or Ronald each day for an hour to go for a walk and have some one-on-one time? Maybe that will help him.
I am glad you still have your faith and hope--some days that is all that got me through. Keep believing that things will get better--Madi has already come so far!
Love to you all,

Dear Madi, Taylor, Tanya and Aaron,
Sad to hear about Madi's weight loss and struggle.Tell her that she and Richie are in the same boat. He is lighter than he has ever been too and his "noodle legs" are hardly capable of holding him up. They have both been thru too much to give in now. Tell her to think of us when she squeezes her lambchops. We are always thinking of and praying for you. We now finally have a website for Richie. It's still in its infancy stage (should have gotten you to help me when we were together) but would appreciate hearing from you and the others from the Ronald.
We would love to hear an update on Anthony in 808, as well as Miguel, Lauren, Laveria, Dylan,Joel, and Steven. Also tell Rich hello for us. We miss you all, love being home though, but hate having to fight these hurricanes,like cancer is not enough. Probably best you stay there till the coast is clear. Our love always, Michelle and Richie

Hello to all, Sad to hear Madison is not up to par. God will get her through this, I know this is hard on the family there but remember yall are loved very much. I guess this past 4 weeks has upset everyone, no phones working and all the things that go with it. Now Rita! Keep your Faith, God is Good and will be with you all the way. Very sad to hear of the children that didn't make it, so sad,God has a plan for all of us and he has always gave her strength, tell her I love her and I miss seeing you all. Hope yall be home soon and all this will be over and Madi is back playing in her room! We love you! Don't ever forget that! I see Aunt Micci posted and Wendy Riggins is my daughter. Didn't know if you knew who they were. We are selling the house and moving, we found a place in Texas {south} all my relatives live there, Country town. Tim and I want to live in the woods and grow old together. We have gotten rid of allot of things, downsizing, hope today is better for Madi and each days brings better health! Kiss the kids for me. I am sure Taylor is doing good in school! Give yall a Big Hug if I could. Love to you all, Pop Tim &Ganny Carol Falyn is due any day! We are excited! She was down for the week-end and we all had a good time, we needed it! They came down to help us clean up. She is naming him Avante Sherwood!

Dear Madi,Taylor,Tanya, and Aaron,
Can't begin to tell you guys how much we miss you and think about you. Our prayers are always with you to endure the many ups and downs that come with cancer. Sad to hear that Madi is having a rough time with the chemo. We just come back from M.D. Anderson where Richie received his first
chemo after surgery. He is having a rough time too. He was hoping that the Dr. would let him off the hook with some of his chemo's, but that didn't happen. He has 4 left.
It's good to be home though, and hope and pray that the day will come when you will be here "down the bayou" too.
We will have a huge party right here at my house.
Until then, big hug and kiss for both Madi and Taylor.
And here's to hoping that Taylor adjusts well to his new school. We love and miss you and pray for this nightmare of cancer to soon be over for everyone especially for our precious children. Michelle and Rich Desonier

Hi guys !

So sorry to hear that our little Madi is having a hard time. You are all always in my thoughts as well as my prayers. It has been pretty busy here in Philly. Between the baby waking me up every few hours at night to eat and the girls being in school. But we are managing. I hope you guys have been getting my packages. I sent one for Taylor this week too. My dad just took some pictures of the little man so I will be able to send you some soon. I hope Madi is feeling more like herself soon.

Hey guys,
Thank for the update. I have been checking up on you daily. And I am glad that you got the diarrhea and throwing under control. Alexa misses Madison so much! We talked about her the other day while eating dinner and she said "Mommy remember how cute my little friend Madison was at the Ronal McDonald house?"

We are thinking about you guys daily.

We have all been praying for you here at work. I work at the First United Methodist Church in Thibodaux, Louisiana. I have had Madison on the prayer chain and prayer list since she was diagnoised. I have a picture here on my desk of Madison that I got from Crystal. I always have someone to ask me how Madison is doing. I now can give them the web page address so they can check on you also.
I just got the address from Renee and Brent. We are all doing well on this end.
We love and are praying for you all.

Hello,
I am so happy Madison is doing well. I evacuated to MS. I have no idea what I will do now. Tulane is not going open for a long time. I am waiting to hear when. Hopefully next week we will know. I am guessing not till dec/jan and that is being optomistic. I may look for jobs at least till Tulane gets running again. They evacuated all the kids to houston and AK. Keep us updated on Madison's progress. I think of yall often

I have been thinking about Madison and your family since we left the hospital. Ashley,Erika and Kaitlyn just adore
her. Ashley lost her battle with cancer on July 26th. She
spoke about Madison everyday after we came home. She loved
being in the room next to her. She has pictures of them in the playroom at the hospital on her cell phone. She loved playing w/her and bringing her little gifts. Drawing the pictures for the doors of the rooms at the hospital. We miss her so much. She has a website www.ashleygraziano.com.
I will keep praying for Madison give her BIG kisses from us all. She has an angel watching over her now.

One of my favorite songs...Wish I could sing it to you guys right now...

Where the spirit of the Lord is...there is Freedom...
Where the spirit of the Lord is...there is freedom...
Oh and if you're tired and thirsty...there is freedom...
Oh and if you're tired and thirsy...there is freedom...

Give it all to Jesus...there is freedom...
Oh give it all to Jesus...there is freedom...
[the breath of freedom reigns in this place]...

Freedom reigns in this place...
Showers of mercy and grace...
They are falling on every face...
There is freedom...
There is freedom...

Happy 4th to you!...until we meet again!...
hoping that is soon and very soon!...
peace,hope and love...

Hi Tanya & Madison
So sorry that you are in hospital. I know how awful the diarrhea is, believe me. Have they tried Lomotil? That worked for Dylan when the Octreotide and Imodium didn't. You sound like you must be exhausted Tanya, I sympathize with you through all this, it sounds all too familiar. Now that Madison is on TPN, she will feel better in herself - you have seen how great TPN has been for Dylan. Take each day at a time, each hour at a time if you have to. Madison will get through this, just stay strong and know that we are all thinking of you.

Love & Hope

Hey! I am so glad that you guys are in New York and being treated by the MSKCC team. They are WONDERFUL! I hope Madison contiunues to improve and you are back home soon. Juliett is doing well. Want to hear something really wierd and coincidental? When we were in New York for Juliett's surgery, our room at the Ronald McDonald House was 809! Right next to your room. How ironic! I remember the laundry machine being right outside the room. Anyway......take care and we hope to see you soon. I think the girls need to get together again.

I am happy that Madi has felt well enough to enjoy the park. It sounds as if you have been very busy. I am sorry I haven't taken time to make an entry for so long. I do keep you in my prayers and will try to do better about making entries when I visit. Love, Hugs, and Kisses to all. Love, Aunt Pam

Congratulations on the improved scans! I hope you find that you are approved for the trip to New York and that you find ways to reduce the cost. As far as fundraising, have you considered a subsale? In my area we have a company that makes the subs for you and the charge you a small price, say $1.25/ sub and you can then charge whatever you feel is fair and it's all profit. Also, have you considered going to the media? They are often looking for human interest stories, and what's more interesting than a beautiful little girl like Madison? I would call and email local tv stations and newspapers. The more support, financial and emotional, the better! All the best!

Hi Madison and family, I was able to meet Madi and her Dad the day they left the hospital,while she rode her bike down the hall and played in the playroom. I was there to see a real close and dear friend of mine. My friend Glenda, was in her room when Madi's dad brought her in and put her in Glenda's arms for them to pray for both of them. It was a blessing to be able to meet such a sweet child. She has touched my heart, and will always be in my mind and in my prayers. GOD BLESS YOU MADI & FAMILY. WE LOVE YOU FROM LOUISIANA.

Hi! This is my first visit to your site. I saw your like on Sydney Dungan's site. My son Nathan, was daignosed with NBIV in April 2003 and is currently NED. We did the antibody trial in NY and I read your entry and wanted you to know that if you talk to the social worker from MSKCC there is a fund to pay for the rooms of NB families who cannot afford the $20 a night. Most likely you would not have that expense. Good luck getting approval to go. It sounds like your doctor knows what is going on with all that and that is a great thing.

Hi Madison,
I am so glad that you had a fun trip to Illinois. I had a fun trip to your neck of the woods. I was stopped at a red light in front of Tulane Chilsdren's Hospital and I sent up a prayer for your right then and there. I thought of you often as I explored your city. Taylor loved it too. Keep fighting and winning your battle sweet girl. You are being prayed for here in Alabama.
As fro 3F8. It was hard to watch, but so worth it. I truly believe it is a life saving treatment. I know you will get all the info you need and directions around the hospital and city, but if we can help at all do not hesitate to email us.
Love,
Kim

The other day I found a picture you drew for me one day when you were sitting at the nurse's station. It's of a bunch of pretty pink hearts (Madi calls hearts "happies"). I love that. You are too cute!!!
It's great to know how much love and support you have. You are obviously very special to so many people.
I know that taking all those medicines can be hard and yucky and make you not feel so well, but it will all be worth it. Keep listening to Mommy and Daddy, they really want you to get better. I know your being a good girl, I miss you and love you. Keep in touch with me!!!!!!

Hi Ya'll,

Just wanted to give a quick "HELLO" to let ya'll know we're always thinking of ya'll. Do you know Children's Hospital had four neuroblastoma patients at one time just these past few weeks. Juliett, Dylan, Colton, and Courtney...

We're doing fine now, but I don't think Juliett is gonna stay with the Accutane. It's a tough decision & we have to decide fast. Juliett's been off of it almost 2 weeks now & is peeling everywhere.

We'll keep praying...Send me an email, please.

I am so glad that radiation has gone well and is almost over. That was so stressful to me to have to go up there everyday for 3 weeks. Be sure to ask the doctor about swimming. Taylor was not allowed to get in public pools, lakes, rivers and oceans for a year after transplant. He could swim in his granny's pool as long as it was well maintained or a kiddie pool that had fresh water every time he got in. He got his line out in July and then we went to NYC and he never really got a chance to swim, but he has this year and loves it. I know Madison can't wait to get bck in the water. Even bath time is fun again! May God continue to bless you all.

Hi, I am so glad you all are enjoying each other and this warm weather. Radiation was awful for us, but only due to it being started late and some of the simulation being changed and had to be redone and it ruined our plans for heading to NYC. The radiation itself was fine. He breazed through it daily even with the sedation. He got 12 days of it although it took about 16 due to his head radiation starting late. He got it to the original tumor site, left adrenal area, and skull. The skull area was the last spot to clear up and took until after transplant, so they went ahead and did it for safety sake. He never was sick and counts were rarely hurt by this. He was fine and eating by about an hour after treatment and it didn't take but about 30 minute for sedation and radiation. He was different from day to day on waking up, but was always fine in no time. It was more a hassle to keep him NPO and go to the hospital every day than the actual procedure. You all will do great!!! I am praying that the CT looks great and all simulation is right the first time. Will you being going to NYC?
Always praying,

Yahoo! I am so excited that you are all home and doing wonderfully. God is good all the time! I hated radiation with all my heart! It was not hard on Taylor. He was sedated everyday and woke up fine. We just got off on the wrong foot with the DR and she didn't do his head and tummy at the same time, she started the head on day 12 on day 4 rather than day 1 and screwed up our already mande plans to start treating in NYC. It all worked out though. It is a hassle to go to radiation everyday, but it is allw orth it. I am still praying for you all. Way to go Madison, you are doinf awesome!!

Hi guys,
Wow, I think I probably worte that same update, she seems to be doing just what Taylor did. It was si very hard to keep him happy and keep up with what all had to be done daily in that room. We were released on day +21, so you will see the up swing sooner then you think, but it is hard until then. YOu are doing great, both of you. I am praying everyday for her healing and your sanity. I know I about lost mine during transplant:) Like you said it is all worth it!!! She is so beautiful. I can't wait to here the updates about new cells and eating. You are in our prayers.
Grow Cells Grow!!!
Love and Prayer,
Kim Watts

Only a few more hours until the big day. THe process itslef was rather anti climatic, but you as a parent will be so emotional. You will watch that new life go into her body. It is amazing. It really does smell like creamed corn!!:) TAylor wanted to cuddle after his and I almost puked from the smell just oozing from his little body. I am praying for you all. YOu are doing great. I am glad to hear the scans were good and will pray for the kidney issue.
Love and Prayers,

Hi there
Madison is a beauty. I will be thinking of you during your transplant. The next 10 days will be tough. Try and keep Madison on her feet (at least once a day) and remember mouth care.

HI, I am glad you have the chemo behind you and yes you are right. It will get worse before it gets better, but it DOES get better. Taylor got our of bed like it or not, every day and he never lost the ability to walk. He was weak, but could do it. DO that mouth care. He did have horrile diaper rash, but I guess it could have been worse. I hated leaving him to shower and stuff too. We had a bthroom in the room, but it was for him only. We could use the toilet since he was in diapers, but not the tub. I am praying for you all. Feel free to read his pages from last MArch and April to see what all we did. Also email us any time if you want to talk. God bless!
Love and Prayers,
Kim and Taylor Watts

Transplant....not fun, but very necessary. Taylor had his on April 2, 2003. You can go to his archive page and read about it. I wont lie and say it was a breaze because it wasn't. He was very fortunate and by tranplant standards he did "breeze through". My advice, Stock pile the patiens b/c she will feel awful and if she is anything like Taylor she will be very angry and you can't please her. I was bout ready to shoot myself in the foot and then boom he was better. It is long and boring days of a room that no one can come in without scrubbing up and wearing gowns. All toys that hit the floor have to be cleaned etc. Just a lot of stuff to do. Make her do the mouth care no matter how bad she hates it. Taylor had no mouth sores and we forced the mouth care. That is number one on the list. She will feel a 100 times better without the sores. She may still get them, but not as bad. Please feel free to email me if you want to talk about it. I know how scary it is to go into it. We had just come back from Disney World and it was so hard to leave paradise to go to hell. You will survive it though. We are praying for you all.

Wow, I get to be first!! I am so glad you signed our page. It has been a long year for us, but it is slowly getting back to normal. I would love to talk anytime. I have lots of websites for kids all over the USA with NB and other cancers. Cancer world is not a fun world, but you join a supportive family that understands everything you are going through and we really help each other alot. I hope things are well for now and hope to hear from you soon!!
