Anna’s Story

Site created on December 10, 2018

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.


Anna is currently in nurnsing care at IU Methodist. The family is meeting with the care team of doctors to discuss her ongoing course of treatment. She is still in need of prayers for the effects of toxic shock due to Strep A infection. Her major surgeries have been completed and post op treatment continues. Physical therapy and wound healing. The family is currently organizing a calendar of schedules so she is not without a family member or trusted caretaker. She is a rock star! A truly amazing spirit of love and inspiration to everyone near her.

Journal entry by Kate Kennedy

Anna went to Indy to finally get to the stage of the wound graft on her knee and muscle pull over the patella. The surgeons are hopeful that it was successful but she has a lot of pain. There will be many trips to Indianapolis for follow up. We are hoping we don't have to have a re-do on this surgery. It was quite traumatic. If this is a successful step in her healing, the family is on to the next stage for prosthetic fitting for her legs! Anna is in good spirits and in great company with her beautiful brothers and parents and friends (you know who you are!)  She also has a very cute chinchilla and cats that she loves dearly. Many thanks to Susan Richter for planting flowers in the pots and yard last week!! We love you!!! Delusions of Granger put on a GREAT show at LagLab’s fundraiser. Many many thanks to everyone who showed up. Anna’s parents are working hard and appreciate all of your contributions and gestures of love. Both sides of the Norquist and Kennedy families are overwhelmed with everyone’s support. Thank YOU!
