Dawn Liloia <mdliloia@aol.com> Mantua, NJ - Tuesday, January 15, 2008 8:57 AM CST Hi Dawn, Dennis and Peter, I just finished reading your update. Is it possible that we cry tears of joy from one eye and tears of heartache from the other? Boy, you want Peter to grow up but yet he is so aware of what is going on now. Agh!!!Wonderful news about all of the tests but man it must be sooooo tough to get thru. I will always keep all of you in my prayers and I think of you all the time. Way to go Peter!!!!! Donna Frazier <donna.frazier@tuhs.temple.edu> Abington, Pa - Monday, January 14, 2008 8:47 AM CST Don't you sometimes feel like you are trying to climb out of a hole and keep slipping down?

We will continue to pray for no more damage and wiggling toes Love to you all, Missy missy <dm4rs@cox.net> omaha, ne usa - Monday, January 14, 2008 7:07 AM CST Dawn, Dennis and Peter, I was so happy to read that peter's scans remain clean. But my heart breaks for him, as he is growing up and he has become so much more aware of what is going on (and what all the doctors and nurses are doing to him). What these children must endure!! This would humble a full grown adult, yet they take it with such strength and courage (and yes a little bit of anger, but who can blame them). We continue to pray for Peter and your family every day. With Love, Dawn. Dawn Enovitch (caringbridge.org/oh/grace.eno) <denovitch@centurytel.net> Avon, OH - Sunday, January 13, 2008 8:35 PM CST So glad that everything was CLEAN!!! And no more scans for a whole year!!! Scans suck. (excuse my language, but it is the truth!!)

Send love to Peter, Aliza Aliza Goldstein - Sunday, January 13, 2008 7:36 PM CST I'm so glad to have met you and Peter!!! Now I know there is a light at the end of this nasty, everchanging tunnel. I'm sure his pain after his scans won't last too long. It shouldn't anyway. Being home should do him some good! I'll keep you all in our prayers and add him to my list of CB friends!!! Love, Kayla www.caringbridge.org/visit/jocelynirene Kayla Dickhoff <ribbit_kd@yahoo.com> Belgrade, MN USA - Saturday, January 12, 2008 11:18 PM CST I am so happy for all of you!!!! It's never easy no matter how old they are, I spent about 3 hours with Tim at CHOP last week for PFT's and a pulmonology appt. and by the way he was acting you would have thought he was 4, he complained about how he hated the hospital, the doctor took too long, the test was stupid, etc. He won't go anywhere near the inpatient units, he gags at the thought. Our poor boys!!!! I wish he was little again so I could hold him and cuddle him! Give Peter my BIG HUG and please stop by when you are at AI.

A lot of children need help with listening skills, husbands, too. They call it "selective hearing". Try not to worry too much. The Lord did not spare Peter's life & provide this miracle, only for Peter to have a multitude of other issues. (Don't be surprised when you have to pray for braces, remember, we prayed for those teeth.) I'll continue to pray for all of you. Love Trish.

Peter looks strong, healthy and happy. How doubly sweet to be celebrating the life of our Savior and the lives of our children. My step-daughter was diagnosed this year with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (not curable).Through the Grace of God she received excellent care and is now in complete remission! How different our lives would be without His love. As I stand and hold my candle this Christmas eve I will think of Peter and give thanks for his life and pray for those who's celebrations will not be as sweet. PS:Your faith is such an inspiration. I know that if I begin to doubt I can read your journal and be renewed. Thank You.

Can you stand it! First, when she is sitting, I can see her dear, dear face and she is so "moved' by Peter's miracle that she cries. So I just copied the picture of him painting his wall, the medical history and the "happy journal adventure" of your mule team along the Rhine. Just wanted you to know that your Peter's story touches lives as do your "adventures"- even those folks in the twilight of their years.

PAUL Boston, Massachusettes http://www.paulinecards.com http://www.paulinecards.com/prayerrequests.html We remember you and your intentions in our daily prayer before the Eucharist "You Can Always Be at Peace" Mother Thecla, the co-foundress of the Daughters of St. Paul, had a saying that was our favorite. She often said, "Even if you cannot be joyful, you can always be at peace." We can be at peace because God loves us in and through his Son. We can be at peace because in all the circumstances of our life we are being made into a new creation, in to the likeness of Jesus Christ. We can be at peace because even though suffering and pain can never be explained, they can be embraced as a mystery that is understood only when lived. God is with us! We encourage you to pray for the intercession of our Co-Foundress, Mother Thecla Merlo, who truly had a mother's heart for the needs of others, both in her life and even now after her death. This is a prayer to her: Most Holy Trinity, we thank you for the singular gifts of light, grace and virtue which you granted to Mother Thecla Merlo, and we thank you for having chosen and constituted her the wise mother and sure guide of the Daughters of St. Paul. Through her intercession, grant that we may live of her great loves: Jesus Master in the Holy Eucharist, the Church, the Gospel and souls--souls sought and served through evangelization with the instruments of social communication to the point of total sacrifice. O Lord, if it be in the design of your divine wisdom, carry out even on this earth your divine promise: "If anyone serves me, my Father will honor him." Exalt this faithful servant to the joy of the Church and the good of many souls and grant us, through her intercession, the favor we ask of you. Amen. We know your prayers and needs are very deep in your heart. Know that they are now deep in our hearts also. We can trust in the faithfulness of God to those whom he loves and believe that in his providence he will shower gifts on his beloved."

Sending love, Kathy Wilson and Joanna <kathywilson@optonline.net> - Sunday, May 21, 2006 12:18 AM CDT Hi, I hope everything goes well with the Peter's scans. My 3 year old son Arthur (Progressive Metastatic Alveolar RMS Bottom & Leg > Lung)is very use to hospital after over 2 years of treatment, he refers to it a "home". However, he gets very nervious and sad when we suddenly turn right to go to "CT, MRI and Nuc. Med.. He does not like being put to sleep for the 99th or 100th time.... Arthur was saved by a Surgeon who was prepared to take a significant risk removing his two tumor's from his right leg and pelvis area. He lost his right bottom and a lot of leg nerves and musles and 4100 Gy of radiation over 30 days did the rest. However, he regularly embarises me when I park in a Disable Parking space and he decides to get out of his wheelchair and shuffles for a short distance... All the best. Peter looks very cute. Stuart (caringbridge...../balcar-smith) Stuart A. Smith Sydney, NSW Australia - Sunday, May 21, 2006 9:50 AM CDT What a hottie!!! Peter looks so handsome in his tux (and you don't look so bad yourself, Dawn!). Just checking in and hoping that Peter is running you ragged (in a good way). Hope you had a nice Mother's Day.

Love Trish Pat Marburger <patmar@netcarrier.com> Lansdale, PA USA - Wednesday, May 3, 2006 6:12 PM CDT Hi Peter, I forgot to say something to you in church the other week. I was at the Vernfield Station 2 weeks ago on a Wed. with a friend and I heard your laugh, I looked up and saw you run past the doorway. We were sitting in the first dining room. I said to my friend, I know that laugh. After I saw you run past, I saw mommy not far behind. I know you hang out there alot. I think every time I have been there I see you. Next time I'll have to jump up and see if I can catch up to you to say hi. I look forward to Sunday's when I see you running around with your friends in the basement. I will see you on Sunday.

Donna Frazier <fraziedm@tuhs.temple.edu> Meadowbrook, Pa - Wednesday, April 26, 2006 9:03 AM CDT Hi Peter, Dawn and Dennis, I was reading Nathaniel Emily's caringbridge site and his nana gave me Peter's site address. My daughter was diagnosed in November 2005 with ectomesenchymoma. I would like to stay in contact with you as her treatment progresses. We had no initial scans to compare to but her last scans came back clear. We are in the middle of the 3rd cycle of 4 in chemo. The Lord is so awesome in his healing and I tell my Ashley that she is going to be a witness to any other children that get this rare cancer. They told us there isn't even 100 cases worldwide! Thank you for the encouragement in treatments. Ashley and Peter can witness together :) Wendy Roberts <braash01@hotmail.com> Madera, CA USA - Monday, April 24, 2006 9:56 PM CDT Hi!To The ZUCCA'S "PETER, DAWN and DENNIS, HE GIVETH AND GIVETH AND GIVETH AGAIN" WE pray that GOD will completely restore "PETER'S" leg so that it will grow at it's normal rate.

He continues to amaze me. I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to spend so much time with him, he holds a special place in my heart, along with his Momma & Dadda. I am always praying for all of you. See you very soon. Love, Trish Pat Marburger <patmar@netcarrier.com> Lasndale, PA USA - Monday, December 19, 2005 10:01 AM CST When you describe how Peter plays, it is like I am watching him. So glad he is enjoying the perks of the season. And the picture is terrific. I wish I had a nickel for all the people I know that have been called back from mammograms and everything was fine. You do not need the added stress of one more worry though. The 22nd is our day off from clinic so if all goes well, we'll have to catch you another time. Lots of love, kathy wilson and Joanna <kathywilson@optonline.net> - Monday, December 19, 2005 7:31 AM CST What a wonderful Holiday season. We are praying for Peter, and will be in clinic on the 22nd.

I am sure you are very busy preparing for the Christmas season. It sure will be a great one this year. Peter will be sooo fun to watch as he takes it all in. I think and pray for you every day (even though I don't always sign in- Guilty). I hope we get a bit more snow and that you get plenty of sledding in-the laughter must be great to hear. You all take care and enjoy the season!

LJHorah@aol.com <LJHorah@aol.com> - Tuesday, December 13, 2005 10:26 AM CST WOW! I can't believe how big Peter is. His pictures are beautiful. I still can't believe what we have all gone through this last year. I am sure you will have the best Christmas ever. We will continue to pray for toes to wiggle.

Has anyone taught you how to throw snowballs yet? I love the new picture of you on the train. Hope you are having fun & continuing to say your prayers. I pray for you everyday! Will see you soon. Love Trish Pat Marburger <patmar@netcarrier.com> Lansdale, PA USA - Sunday, December 11, 2005 5:46 PM CST Hi Dawn, Thank you for your inspirational note on Hazen's caringbridge.

Love always and in all days, Weezer and PJ Louise Jones <lojo3700@msn.com> Reading, Pa Berks - Thursday, December 8, 2005 6:00 PM CST Dear Dawn, It is always so wonderful to talk to you. I hope that Peter gets to play in the snow some more. We love stomping in the snow with our sneakers on (no boots)and then coming inside to dry off and warm up! Something tells me that the Darth Vader sneakers from Payless are not going to make it through the winter. Love to Peter, The Goldsteins Aliza goldstein - Wednesday, December 7, 2005 10:05 AM CST Dawn, you are a wonderful mother and friend. Thank you for always being there for me. You are the glue that holds all of us together. Peter is such a beautiful child. I can't wait to come to his high school graduation, in a few years. God Bless you all, Missy missy <dm4rs@cox.net> omaha, ne usa - Tuesday, December 6, 2005 12:43 AM CST Hi Peter. I just stopped by to check on you. I love the picture your mommy put up. What beautiful flowers. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season! Michelle - Emily's mom - www.caringbridge.org/tx/emilysfight & Rhabdo Kids ACOR Mission, TX USA - Monday, December 5, 2005 8:31 AM CST Hey Peter! Happy Sunday! By chance did you and mommy see any Penn State "canners" this weekend in your neck of the woods? This was canning weekend, when all those involvoed in THON, the Penn State Dance MaraTHON for children with cancer stand outside of grocery stores, malls, and at intersections collecting any loose change or bills that people want to donate. Well Victor and I were host to sixteen Penn State students who were "canning" in the Lehigh Valley. We had a GREAT time with them!! What a nice group of kids from the Blue Steel Morale team! It was sad to see them leave this afternoon...and our home is awfully quiet again. The good news...this team alone collected over $3,200.00 yesterday! At one point a man drove by and tossed in a $100 bill....the kids didn't realize who it was until the car behind him stopped and told them...it was Brian Dawkins of the Philadelphia Eagles!...and not only that, Briab drove around again to toss in an additional $100 bill! The kids were very moved by his kind gesture. We can't wait for THON weekend in February to get together again with this wonderful group of young adults! I hope you had a good weekend Peter! One of these days we're going to have to get together! xoxoxo Sylvia <smp75@msn.com> Allentown, - Sunday, December 4, 2005 8:33 PM CST Hello Zucca Family, Just checking in and glad to see Christmas decorations are in place. When I read about the battles of other children, I am sure I don't belong in this world of cancer. But here we are, maintaining hope and faith with the help of people like you. I love hearing about Peter. What a cute little fireman. Take care- and what time was dessert? kathy wilson <kathywilson@optonline.net> - Friday, December 2, 2005 8:49 AM CST Dawn, I love to read your journal entries, Peter continues to amaze me, I remember the first day I met you. How I would get Peter to sit still by talking to him about Bailey Jane. Please give him a big HUG from me! Laurie <lmilnes@comcast.net> - Thursday, December 1, 2005 10:16 PM CST I was so touched to read that Peter has a tree with a Haley angel on it. I cannot tell you how much that touches my heart. I am sure that Haley was there with Peter as he decorated his tree. She was always my little helper in all the holiday decorating. We are so happy to hear that Peter is doing better and better every day. With love, Jean Brady <bni21@comcast.net> Newark, de - Thursday, December 1, 2005 1:19 PM CST Okay Dawn...I want first dibs on your book when it is published! Our lives were also touched by Liam Kane... a little man who touched many hearts. It does the heart good to read of Peter doing so well. We will remember the families of Don and Oma in our prayers. Oh....you won't even have to wait til you're next to Oma in heaven... she's probably having a chuckle right about now! : ) We had a smaller than usual crowd for Thanksgiving...I think there were 28 or 30...and thankfully everyone brings something, or we would have joined you in having a progressive dinner! This weekend we will be hosting sixteen Penn State students as they will be in the Lehigh Valley "canning" for THON. We're quite excited for their arrival...actually, when they arrive Victor and I will be at my prayer group's Christmas party....hmmmmmm....maybe that's not such a good thing! : ) I hope you have a wonderful week! Happy Birthday Dennis! www.thon.org Sylvia <smp75@msn.com> Allentown, - Wednesday, November 30, 2005 6:34 PM CST Wow what an entry Dawn! I know many people have told you that you have such a special talent for writing and you truly do. I am sooo sorry that you have just gone thru such losses. All of those families will be kept in my prayers. Your Thanksgiving doesn't sound that much different from most of ours. Who actually gets lucky enough to have everything ready at the same time? Now if some food wasn't hot and some cold that would not be a normal meal. For those of us with kids isn't that how every meal is supposed to taste? You take care and enjoy the Christmas season. Donna Frazier <fraziedm@tuhs.temple.edu> Meadowbrook, Pa - Wednesday, November 30, 2005 9:17 AM CST Hi Peter, It was so nice to see you last week. You certainly are growing & changing.
