I try talking to you but I know that you are up in heaven, you were such a great grand daughter helped me out so many times, when you really wanted to be doing something else. well I can't say enough about you, you were the 3rd grand daughter, or should I say you were the third grandchild, and I fell in love with you, the first time I seened you. You were getting off the airplane and your mom said you cried and that so many people were getting upset, because you just kept crying, but when you got off the airplane you were all smiles, and I will never forget that moment. I could not help it I carried you out to the car, and then we went to see Grandma Keough, and she thought you were the best child. Well everything here is ok. I think your Mom is know sorting to get back into living again. It has been very hard for her, she misses you so bad, so I can't talk to her about you because I start crying, and I don;t want her to get upset. I plan to come and see you on Saturday, so keep me in your station in heaven, love you Heather. Grandma Doerr Patricai Doerr <Patdoerr6769@sbcgloval.net> Fenton, Mo.

Bye Love Kim Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@earthlink.net> Arnold, MO USA - Friday, August 11, 2006 2:36 PM CDT Man..Two years..It doesn't seem like 2 years. It feels just like yesterday that i was sitting in her room talking to her about all of the stupid things going on in life. As much as we used to have our sisterly fights she was always there to give me advice.I miss her soooo much! Cassie Selders <casandra_selders@yahoo.com> Wood River, IL - Tuesday, August 1, 2006 3:42 PM CDT There's alot of things that I learned from Heather. Perseverance and determination. Morality and selflessness. I had the honor of babysitting her on occassion back in the day, but I definately gained more from her than she ever could have from me. I know you're always watching over us, Heather. I hope I don't make you blush too much! ;) I miss ya, sis. I know we'll all meet up again sometime. Jason Selders <jason_selders@yahoo.com> Grayslake, Il USA - Tuesday, August 1, 2006 11:25 AM CDT I wonder who she's met up there in heaven. It doesn't seem like two entire years have passed- I remember Jason making jokes in the basement and Heather just laughing her butt off like it was yesterday. I miss her, we all miss her, and I know that we will see her again. If you're reading this e-mail up there sis, I love you. Brian Selders <brianselders@yahoo.com> Lansing, IL USA - Tuesday, August 1, 2006 9:54 AM CDT 2 years. It is inconceivable, but it is true. 2 years ago today, our world changed. It certainly is consoling to know that Heather is void of pain and that she has made her way into Heaven. She is able to walk hand in hand with our Lord. But we miss her. We will never be whole in this world. Look down at us angel and ask God our Father to be merciful and to grant us His grace so that we too can finish the work He has given to us to do. Some day we will be back together with you. stepdad v <vinman@rocketmail.com> arnold, mo usa - Tuesday, August 1, 2006 7:48 AM CDT Hello Debbie and Vince, Just wanted to say hello and to wish you both a good holiday week-end.

Love Ali Ali Vitale <bluize44@swbell.net> Arnold, Mo - Saturday, January 29, 2005 2:00 PM CST Hello! It's been a long time since I've seen or talked to you, no excuses except that it's been rough. I honestly would like to come visit sometime. I found something that I thought you might be interested in because I think Heather would have enjoyed it.

Ali Vitale <bluize44@swbell.net> arnold, mo - Friday, January 7, 2005 11:47 AM CST Debbie- I was just visiting my friend lindsays caring site which brought me to view your daughters. Its funny while reading it how everytyhing just sounds so alike in so many ways. They both fought so hard for the life that they fully deserved! Lindsay was an amazing person, beautiful inside and out, she never gave up the fight. I can see that your daughter was the same way! I was reading a entry about Heather and she had a different laugh, so did lindsay, it was so cute. To this day I can still hear her little chuckle!! I don't understand why things like this take over such incredible people and i will never understand other than the fact that god must have some type of a plan for them. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers as well!! Kelli Schwartz <xokellisweetiexo@aol.com> Tonawanda, NY - Friday, January 7, 2005 11:27 AM CST Hi Debbie, Vince and Cassie, I wish you all a Happy New Year! It's great to read everyone's memories of Heather. She was a special person. Debbie we want to wish you a Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and many more. Have a good day and talk to you soon. Bye Love, Kim, Glenn, Kristin, Brandi and Lee Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Thursday, January 6, 2005 9:50 AM CST Debbie -- Thank you so much for your thoughtful posting on Lindsay's website. I read Heather's history, and see so many similarities in how she and Lindsay handled what life had thrown them. They both fought so hard to stay !! Their bright light will continue to shine on --- in our hearts, in our minds, in stories told and re-told, and in our case, in her new little niece, Jaiden, that Lindsay was so looking forward to spoiling. I'll end my post with a quote that I recently saw that says "Perhaps they are not stars but rather openings in Heaven where our loved ones are shining down upon us to let us know they are happy". God Bless. Bonnie MacIver (Lindsay's Mom) (www.caringbridge.org/ny/lindsaym) Bonnie MacIver <BonnieJM@adelphia.net> Tonawanda, NY U.S.A. - Wednesday, January 5, 2005 11:40 PM CST Hi Debbie, Thanks for your guestbook entry at our son and brother Alex's CaringBridge site (http://www.caringbridge.org/ny/alex/). I stopped by and read Heather's journal entries today. Thank you so much for sharing... it's another example to me of how strong and inspirational our kids are, even (or especially) when they are so sick. I too have been browsing various CaringBridge sites lately, from one to another, trying to find solace, or perhaps shared experiences, with other bereaved parents, or maybe to learn about Alex's new friends. I suppose the silver lining, if there is one in this awful experience, is the revelation of the good in people. Please accept our sympathies, and our prayers for healing, from another family that understands. Mark, Karen and Carrie Wozniak <mwozniak@wbfo.org> Tonawanda (Buffalo), NY - Wednesday, January 5, 2005 2:04 PM CST Hi Debbie- You dont know me but I was Lindsay's best friend and I saw that you had wrote on her site..you had a beautiful daughter and I am sorry about your loss...Heather sounded like a wonderful friend and daughter..I miss my Linz so much and I cant understand why such horrible things happen to the best people...Stay strong and know that she is always with you...Have a good year..

I SAW THAT YOU POSTED ON HER WEB SITE AND I THANK YOU. UNFORTUNATLY, I KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE GONE THRU AND WHAT YOU ARE FEELING. I CAN ONLY SAY THAT EVERYONE WILL TELL YOU THAT IT GETS EASIER. I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THAT YET. I MISS HER MORE WITH EVERY PASSING DAY AS I'M SURE YOU MISS HEATHER. I READ THE JOURNAL ON HEATHER FROM THE FIRST DAY YOU STARTED WRITING. ITS JUST AMAZING TO ME THE FIGHT THAT THESE KIDS HAVE IN THEM. I KNOW LINDSAY WAS A FIGHTER RIGHT TO THE END. SHE ALWAYS THOUGHT SHE WOULD BEAT HER DISEASE. SHE NEVER COMPLAINED AND SHE ALWAYS KEPT A BEAUTIFUL SMILE ON HER FACE. SHE WAS SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO ME AND EVERYONE AROUND HER. YOU STAY STRONG AND YOU WILL BE IN MY PRAYERS. GOD BLESS.

There not a day goes by that she is not in my prayers and my thoughts she was a speacal girl my prayers are with you and you familiy garrett alexander <galexander1344@hotmail.com> pacific, mo usa - Tuesday, December 28, 2004 7:14 PM CST Hi Debbie and Vince, I think what your doing is a great way to remember Heather and honor her. I'm sure her stocking will be overflowing with memories from many different people. She was such a great person and anyone who knew her will have a good memory of her. When I'm out at the mall or at the movies I always think of the times when Heather and I did those things. Debbie I want to thank you for including everyone in this new tradition for Heather. Heather has a wonderful Mother. Tell Vince and Cassie we said hello. Talk to you soon. Bye Love, Kim, Glenn ,Kristin, Brandi and Lee Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Thursday, December 9, 2004 8:57 AM CST Hi Debbie and Family, I stopped by the page today and I'm not even sure why. I still think of Heather alot. She went through so much. We never understand why God takes away a young vibrant person, but he knows his reasons. Don't you think that Heaven is a wonderful place? All the people that we have lost on earth will be waiting there for us when we arrive. I know that I will meet Heather in Heaven. Look how close the names are spelled. I will know her cause she will have a smile that lights up the heavens. Besides that, she has her own star.... So when I look up to the stars, I know where she will be. Know that the God of us all is with you always. When my husband passed away, I found this poem: I give you this one thought to keep- I am with you still - I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not think of me as gone- I am with you still - in each new dawn. Seasons come and go. But love lasts FOREVER. Heather will always be in your hearts. And that is the way it should be. Her body is gone, but not her spirit or her love. God Bless you Debbie, Vince, Cassie and the rest of her family. Janet Baechle <mama43@peaknet.net> Freeburg, IL 62243 - Monday, November 22, 2004 9:49 AM CST Hi Debbie and Vince, Not a day goes by that I don't think of Heather in some way.

I can only say I know how you felt every time you went to the doctor hoping they would say they found a cure for Heather. With Steven I just take it one day at a time. I guess the grieving period is the same, one day at a time. I have known you for a long time and you are a very strong women. I am sorry to say I did not get to know Heather as she got older but she sure sounded a lot like you. Strong and Beautiful!!! Debbie time heals all pain and you will be alright. Keep faith and Heather in your heart. God is holding you and he will see you through this. I am here for you any time any hour. I love you! Debbie you and your family are in my prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and if you need a shoulder I am here for you. I love you and remember God has you in his hand and will help you through this hard time.

Talk to you soon. Bye Love, Kim Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Tuesday, September 7, 2004 11:16 AM CDT Debbie, I am a friend of your sister Diane. I cannot image what you are now dealing with...the loss of a child. However, my parent both died of cancer, my dad 7/22/04 and my mom 7/29/04. In fact, Terry Adams told me of Heather's passing when she came to the funeral home for my mom. It's hard to lose someone close and having both parent gone within a week of one another is tough. While they were both in their 80's, up to the end of July, they were always there for me. But, we will all make it thru this, little by little. Peggy Allen <roc986@cs.com> Arnold, MO - Friday, September 3, 2004 3:07 PM CDT Hi Debbie and Vince, My thoughts and prayers are with you everyday. I love and miss Heather very much. Sometimes I think she is going to call and say can I come over and watch a movie, I guess in my heart she is always watching those movies with me. Please know if there is ever anything you need I will do what I can to help. Talk to you soon. Bye Love Kim Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Thursday, September 2, 2004 8:50 AM CDT I saw Heather's obituary in the paper today and I wanted to tell you how sorry I am about her passing.

I really don't know what mere words could give any peace or comfort to any parents under these circumstances, so I'll just say that I hope you all find peace somehow in your treasured memories. Bill Drendel <wbdrendel@magellanhealth.com> St. Louis, MO USA - Wednesday, August 4, 2004 11:34 AM CDT We at the Siteman Cancer Center would just like to say how sorry we are to hear about Heather.

She has definitely shown such great strength and bravery. Heather was a remarkable person and I will miss her a lot. Lisa Sapp <uilisa2000@yahoo.com> Grayslake, IL - Monday, August 2, 2004 4:31 PM CDT Debbie and Vince and family--what can I say? I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. You all must be so proud of Heather. She was truly a remarkable young lady to endure all that she has this past year with such grace and strength. Mere mortals would have given up long ago, she is an inspiration. Following is a poem that I thought was fitting. I know she will never be far from your thoughts and never out of your heart, YOUR pain will go on, but thankfully SHE is now free from pain and THAT is what you have to hold on to. I'm Free Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free I'm folowing the path God laid for me. I took God's hand when I heard the 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 parting 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 too brief, don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, God set me free. I also want to send my sympathies to Heather's friends. Your grief should not be overlooked. I lost my best friend, Elena, 11 years ago when I was 25, so I know first hand how devastating losing Heather is to you all. Stick together, and take comfort from each other. I can tell you from my experience that it has helped me by keeping in touch with Elena's family through the years. I hope some of you will be able to do the same with Debbie. I will keep you all in my prayers. If there is anything I can do for you, PLEASE don't hesitate to ask. Tina Jackson <teenerj@aol.com> House Springs, MO USA - Monday, August 2, 2004 3:53 PM CDT Heather was a really great cousin!I really miss her alot too!I really truley love and I really care for her!She was a really great girl and she was very nice and pretty.And let her always be loved by everyone!

We all come to earth our lifetime, And for some it's not may years I don't want you to keep crying You are shedding so many tears. I haven't really left you Even though it may seem so.

Kim Doerr <kim_doerr@unigroupinc.com> Washington , mo usa - Wednesday, July 7, 2004 8:25 AM CDT Heather...Debbie, Vince, and all, Hang in there...and know that my thoughts and prayers continue to be with you. Heather, I don't think I have told you how much I like the pig drawing you did for me...I have it on the wall here in my cube, and just have to smile every time I look at it. When my son Jeff was growing up, the family of one of his best friends ran a large hog farming operation. As the boys visited back and forth, Jeff always helped with the hog-related chores when he was out at their farm (it was 'fun' since he didn't have to do it every day). Later, when Jeff went to college in the east, kids there - most of whom had never been close to a farm of any type - found it amazing that he had, by choice, spent time cleaning out hog pens. So, I imagine he embellished the stories just a little bit for them. Anyway, your drawing, besides being cute by itself, reminds me of those days...so, thanks again...and God bless and keep you. Sandy Buchmiller <slbuchmiller@magellanhealth.com> Highland, IL - Wednesday, July 7, 2004 6:28 AM CDT Heather, Congratulations on your baptism!! I know that you could feel your parents loving presence and it was witnessed by Father and Our Lord Jesus. Remember, you are never alone--your mom and Vince are holding you and loving you. Jesus is carrying you right now to help you get better. Hold on tight. See you soon.

Sorry I haven't called in a couple of days but I have lost my voice again. Hopefully I will be able to talk better in a couple of days. I wish you a good day today. Talk to you soon. Bye Love Aunt Kim and Kristin Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Tuesday, June 29, 2004 8:51 AM CDT Hi Heather! Vince mentioned that "things were looking up at home" the other night at the subdivision meeting. So, that prompted me to check the website again. It was great to see the smiley face sunshines pop up. I am sorry, however,that you are experiencing mouth sores. I know those can be very painful. When I developed some during chemo my doctor had the pharmacy prepare a special "cocktail" to heal them. The medication worked wonders and my only regret was that I didn't speak up sooner. As each different side effect came and went, my approach was to simply tolerate it and wait for the next one. I didn't want to complain and was afraid to expose my body to any more chemicals. What a mistake! There are some wonder drugs out there, so be sure to tell your doctor so you can get some relief. Again, glad you hear you are in recovery! Your neighbor, Tracy Wetteroff Tracy <tracywett@mindspring.com> Arnold, MO USA - Monday, June 28, 2004 3:21 PM CDT HELLO MISS HEATHER. WE WILL BE PRAYING FOR THE COUNTS TO GO UP AND ALSO FOR YOUR MOUTH TO HEAL UP SO THAT YOU CAN EAT, EAT, EAT. JUST A REMINDER THAT NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR OUR DADDY GOD AND HIS ARM IS NEVER TOO SHORT. LOVE YOU MUCH, AUNT VICKIE VICKIE DOERR <WRITERMOM41@AOL.COM> CEDAR HILL , MO USA - Sunday, June 27, 2004 10:40 PM CDT Hi Heather, I'm glad your feeling better and doing better for that matter. It always appear that recovery is a slow process, and sometimes it can get very frustrating; just hang in there...........It's great that you are find some enjoyment in shakes. At least you are getting a lot of the nutrients you need. Now, all you need is to throw yourself an "ICE CREAM SOCIAL", and everyone can delight in this tasty treat with you.

I highly reccomend it. Have you tried banana pudding to eat? I'm sure your mom has tried all kinds of soft foods. Take care, and I'll keep you in my prayers. Elizabeth.

One day it's hot and the next it feels more like winter than spring. I'm glad you are up and about and feeling well. Hopefully this will last for a few days. That's not too much to ask, huh?....................................................... My thoughts and prayers will continue with you and your family, as you travel along this journey. And special prayers go out to your grandmother as she prepares for her extensive surgery. I haven't seen any new movies lately, but I have a few that I absolutely must see. Of course despite what the critics say, I'm my own critic when it comes to the movies. I will update you this week on which one I got a chance to see and if it was any good. You would think at the price you pay to get in and what they charge for food and drinks, all the movies would be great. But as we know, that's not always the case. I will talk with you soon. Again, I'm glad you are feeling better.

And if you didn't know, sometimes we are the only bible people will read. So knowing that, God only chooses his best. (Remember Job?) I'm glad you have made it through all of the days of your radiation. There are brighter days up ahead. On another note, I got a chance to go to the movies this past weekend and I saw the movie, "The Perfect Score". I enjoyed it, there were some really funny parts to this movie, and the best part was that it only cost me a $1.00, but also, there were free refills on popcorn and drinks. Not bad huh?................ Well I did save on tickets, popcorn and the drink but I did have to drive a country mile to get to the show. It was in Glen Carbon, a little subdivision not too far from Edwardsville. I guess you can't have everything! Have a blessed day.

I am a friend of Grandma Pat and have been visiting your website almost every day to keep up on your condition. My niece Lisa had a baby boy Thursday, but due to some complications he was born by c-section 30 days early. He was on oxygen until later that night and on IV and monitors until today. Now he is with his mother in the room all the time and she's loving it. I tell you this to show the power of prayer since I have been praying for you both for several months. Hang in there!!! Loretta Claes <lorclaes@charter.net> Shrewsbury, MO USA - Saturday, February 7, 2004 12:28 AM CST Hi Heather, this is Sarah, a coworker of your Mom. I'm sorry the last four days of your radiation treatment has been so rough, perhaps the weekend will be better for you. We are all keeping you in our thoughts and our prayers. On another note, I got a chance to go to the movies last night and I saw the "BUTTERFLY AFFECT". This was a cool movie, but you couldn't blink or you would miss something. It was kind of like watching, "PHENOMENON", the movie John Travolta played in years again. Then again, it kind of had a little "PULP FICTION" feel to it. Overall pretty good, not as good as a "BRILLIANT MIND". Which brings me to the point I was trying to get at, when all of this is over, the chemo and the radiation, it should leave you with a brilliant mind. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers, we hope God will ease the pain and allow you an enjoyable weekend. Sarah Golliday <itsmssg03@yahoo.com> - Friday, February 6, 2004 3:22 PM CST HI Heather, I hope your headaches stop and I hope you stop feeling sick to your stomach. Kristin is happy to get to see you and Grandma Shirley tomorrow she is looking forward to that. I hope you will feel ok. We love you and are always praying for you. See you and talk to you soon. Have a good day and be careful driving on the roads, I'm sure there are some slick spots. Bye Love Aunt Kim and Kristin Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Friday, February 6, 2004 10:25 AM CST Good morning Heather, this is Sarah, a coworker of your Mom's. I'm glad you made it through the first two days of your radiation treatment, even though it wasn't easy. I'm hoping and praying your third day will be a lot better, and the headaches will cease. Keep praying and keep the faith and know that brighter days are ahead. Sarah Golliday <itsmssg03@yahoo.com> - Wednesday, February 4, 2004 8:23 AM CST Hi Heather- I hope you are feeling good today. Good luck with your radiation treatment today. I had fun at the movies Saturday night, thanks for going with me. Give Sprinkles a hug from us. See you soon. Bye Love Aunt Kim and Kristin Everyone says hello. Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, Mo USA - Monday, February 2, 2004 10:10 AM CST Hi Heather! This is your neighbor who dropped off the books. The thank you note said to check out your website, so that is exactly what I'm doing! It looks like you've got a big family to take care of you :o) and a new dog too, how fun! I wish you the very best of success with the stem cell transplant. I'm sure you are anxious for the whole process to be over and for everything to get back to normal. In time, it will. One day you'll look back and this will be just a very small blip in your life from which you will have had the fortune to gain a lot of personal knowledge and strength at a very young age. How do I know? Because I've been there (at age 28) and done that (surgeries, tests, chemo and radiation for breast cancer). It's all "doable" once you've made the decision to hang in. Good luck and I will be sending positive thoughts for a speedy recovery your way!!! Tracy <tracywett@mindspring.com> Arnold, MO USA - Friday, January 30, 2004 1:14 PM CST Heather,I like the new pitcures exspecially the one of you and sprinkles.It's a good photo.I'm really glad you like him.You are a wonderfull cousin and deserve the best that life has to offer.I'm glad Chrissy and I could do something special for you.I know it may not seem like it sometimes but I think you teach everyone of us how very Important we are to one another and that we need to take things one step at a time instead of rushing through life. Forgetting about the simple things like enjoying eachother for who we are instead of who we think they should be. You are truley a model of how we should be Thanks for that..... Joanie Joan Hull <Jehfrds@sbcglobal.net> Crystal, MO USA - Friday, January 30, 2004 0:30 AM CST Hi Heather, Sprinkles sure is cute. Can't wait to visit with the two of you.

Kristin and I will stop by sometime to see you and Sprinkles. Kristin has been off school for 3 days now, you know she is enjoying that. I hope everthing goes well with the donor, and your radiation treatments. Let us know if you need anything. Hope to see you soon. Bye Love and Prayers, Aunt Kim and Kristin Tell everyone we said hello. Kim Rawie <kohirohiro@jcn.net> Arnold, MO USA - Wednesday, January 28, 2004 10:09 AM CST Hi Heather, this is Sarah, a coworker of your Mom.

I'm sure everything will go well today with your radiation. Stay positive, so many of us are praying for you. Have a great day on all of us! Sarah Golliday <itsmssg03@yahoo.com> st louis, mo - Tuesday, January 27, 2004 1:49 PM CST HELLO MISS HEATHER. SPRINKLES IS SO CUTE. I LOVE THE PICTURE OF THE TWO OF YOU. JUST WANTED TO SAY HI AND THAT WE ARE PRAYING. LOVE YA,AUNT VICKIE VICKIE DOERR <WRITERMOM41@AOL.COM> CEDAR HILL, MO USA - Tuesday, January 27, 2004 1:17 PM CST Hi Ya Heather, 1/24/03 Thought that you would like to hear about my winter vacation to sunny Ft. Lauderdale. Now your grandma Pat, will tell you that I love to travel. We left for Ft. Lauderdale the 27th of Dec. The lady that I went with had problems with her memory. Unbenownst to me she had more problems before we left. So her short term memory was probably about 10 minutes tops... We took two planes to get to Ft. Lauderdale(which I will now call Ft. L.) She does not remember anything about the flight (she had taken Dramamine because she got sick 12 yrs. before on a plane.) So that was all she could remember was the past 12 years prior. Three days after we arrived we both came down with terrible colds. The day after New Years I slept on the couch and she slept in a chair watching the TV. A week later we are both feeling terrible so I insisted that she had to go to a Dr. Since we had no clue where we were in Ft. L. She had not been there for 10 yrs and remembered nothing about the streets. I found a Dr. that was on the same street that was near our condo. Only thing was that he was 96 blocks in the opposite direction of where we were. So I took her to the Dr. and he said that she had a hiatal hernia and pneumonia. So she had to go to the Hospital. Well I told him that we were down by the beach, but he insisted that the hospital closer to us was a crazy place and the one BY HIM was much better.. yea right. Well they admitted my friend, who now has no idea of how long that we had been in Fl. Let alone what day of the week it was. This was a Tues... Jan.6, The 8th of Jan I called my doctor in Freeburg,IL to get a prescription for antibotics, cause I decided that I has sinus infection by then. So he called the prescription in for me to a local Walgreens, and I picked it up down there. Meanwhile everyday from 1130 to 12oo I am driving the 40 minutes out to this hospital so my friend is not sitting there alone. Staying until 7:30 or 800 at night. The first night I came home I didn't turn at the right street so I spent an hour and a half trying to find my way back to the condo where we were staying. The next night I did do better, only 45 minutes WOOO EEEEE. The lady's son and grandson drove on Thurs and Fri down to Ft. L. They got there around 2:15pm on Fri. Friday morning around 4:15am something bit me on the leg. It kind of itched, so I didn't think too much about it. I am thinking a vicious bug.. No it turns out to be a spider.. I think, a mean little critter that's all I know. By Fri night I have a red welt on my leg from my ankle to 5 inches below the knee. The color of a sunburn. Hurts kindof and feels really warm. So I do a medical check and put a band-aid and some antibotic on it. There that should help..... Saturday morning, I wake up my whole area has doubled in size and is red and looks terrible. So the son and I and grandson go to get my friend out of the hospital and have my leg looked at. I am still taking antibodics from the sinus infection, (5 total so far). Go to the Emergency room at the Hospital. This Dr. says that my antibotics aren't strong enough for this spider bite, I need new and bigger ones. I swear, Heather, these are HORSE PILLS; the size of end of your little finger. Now I have a new prescription, my friend gets out of the hospital where she has been since Tues. She is released at 7:30pm from the hospital. So we head back the 40 minute drive back to the condo. We get down to closer where we are staying and she and her son argue on the way home for 30 minutes where we can eat dinner. So EVENTUALLY we do find a restaurant down by the ocean which is supposed to have really good food. Unfortunately for us the temperature had dropped from 80's to high 50's/ With the wind blowing across the ocean and no sun, it was cold. I had on a pair of shorts and short sleeve shirt. No coat of course. Well we had gotten a rental car two days after we got there. I had gotten a good deal through one of the guards in her building. So I parked the rental car at the meter. Ignored the meter. Most go until 800pm, this one went to 230am. So of course we have a parking ticket when we come out. Ok no problem, my fault, I'll write the damn check and be done with it. I try to start the car; it won't start. Now there is a bar attached to this restaurant and all of these guys are standing outside, drinking, smoking and watching the football games on tv. Freezing their behinds off, did I mention they were drinking (LOTS) Well as typical men, they are convinced that I: 1. either gave the car too much gas, 2. didn't give the car enough gas, 3. am a woman, so it is obviously my fault that the car will not start. So they are all trying to pay sidewalk mechanics. I tried to start this car until 9:10, I called the car rental place, told them that the car would not start. They PROMISED that they would have a car there in less than 1 hour. THEY LIED! ! ! ! ! At 10:15 I called them again. Oops it would be there in 45 minutes. And since I had such a terrible time, they would upgrade my car....another OOOO eeee. 11:00 they said that the tow truck had just gotten to the airport and that it would take 20 minutes to get there. 11:45 the story was that they had left and would be there shortly.I call again and as I do at 5 after 12 the truck pulls up. Did I mention that the car upgrade was a different color of the same car......Now my friend was so cold that the restaurant had her come back inside to stay warm. I am freezing my behind off cause I am wearing shorts and no coat. So we are all sitting inside this restaurant, where they feel terrible because we are having such a terrible time with this rental agency. My friend's grandson was the only one having fun. He was at the different bars in the area partying. By the time I got my friend back to her condo along with her son and grandson. I went to a Motel to stay the night. Some of the Walgreens are 24 hours, but not all of them have pharmacists there 24 hr.s . Of course ours didn't. The nearest one was 32 blocks back toward the hospital. Motel does not have washrags or hand towels. Just Bath towels. and I didn't care........ So I still have a prescription for these heavy duty antibodics that I can't get filled until Sun. when I am leaving. When I am leaving the Motel I notice a sign that says "If washrags are missing from your room there is a $1.25 charge and hand towels are $2.00. So I tell him I didn't have either so don't charge me............ Sun morn, I get prescription filled. Leg looks terrible and feels worse. Leave for the airport at 230 pm even though flight doesn't leave until 6:30 Read the riot act to the car rental about the terrible service and what rotten people they are to do business with. Take a plane home and of course am on the end of terminal so I have to walk 1/2 mile to get my luggage. The Metrolink leaving is only going part way the gal had just worked an 8 hour shift. So had to wait another half hour for the next on. Get on the Metrolink for home, instead of taking 70 minutes for the trip it takes 1 and 3/4 hours because they are working on the track and only one lane of traffic between UMSL and Central West End....... FINALLY get home around 1130 pm/with shower it was 1:15am. Am feeling terrible between leg and sinus infection, go to the Dr. here on Monday, to look at leg and listen to lungs. Wed's mon about 1:14am call my daughter to take me to the hospital, cause I'm not feeling great. Was in hospital from Wed's until Fri around 530.pm Haven't been back to work yet. Taking enough medicine to make me sleep from 9pm until 8 am without waking. I sure will be glad when I feel better. So I have decided that I am only going to travel with people younger than me from now on........... Hope you are feeling better. Hope you got a laugh about my "trip from hell." I think that is everything now. As Roseanne Rosanna Danna used to say, "It's always something". Keep The Faith! Get Well Soon...........

You are an INCREDIBLY strong person to have gone through what you have already endured. YOU WILL PREVAIL!!! There is no doubt that GOD has something wonderful planned for your future.

DEnise Denise Doerr <dubld3@aol.com> Arnold, MO USA - Saturday, December 13, 2003 11:21 AM CST Heather, I am a friend of your Grandma Pat; we carpooled together. I heard more stories about you as a little kid and the wonderful woman you have become. This is really a hard time in your life and I can't begin to understand the pain and fear you must be experiencing. The one thing I do know is that your Grandma always said you were a fighter, from little on and that it what you need to keep doing now even though some days are really bad. Draw on the love and strenght of your family and friends, they will always be there for you. You are always in my thoughts and prayers. One more thing, if I could I would give you some of my pounds to add a little meat to your bones. I think if we split my weight with your weight , we'd be a couple of real hot chicks. What do you think about that? Kathy Kasznel St. Louis , MO USA - Friday, December 12, 2003 10:22 PM CST Hi Heather, Sounds like you're having a rough time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless you all, Sharon Sharon crocker - Friday, December 12, 2003 8:45 AM CST Hi Heather, My thoughts and my prayers are with you and your family. Though it seems rough all that you are going through, be strong and God will see you through it all. It's not certain why we are inflicted with such pains, and diseases, but sometimes God uses those that he think are strong enough to bare it. He allows you to be used as a vessel, so that others may see his glory. I am praying for you, and I know that you can beat this. I have no doubt in my mind. God is still working miracles everday-just believe this in your heart. May God strenghten all of you all along this walk.
