Hi Rene,

Thank you so much for sharing this newspaper article. It made me cry to see how far Caralyn has come, it is so wonderful.

I can't wait to meet you both next month.

Hugs, Karen

Hi Rene
I am looking forward to meeting you both in D.C.
You must be so proud of all your daughter has accomplished in such a short time.

Hi Rene,

That was a very nice article, but it didn't make me cry - that was Karen. Our home has been invaded by people working on final preparations for camp. Karen was using my computer and didn't realize that I was logged in.

I'm looking forward to seeing you at camp as well.

Tim

Now that's how an article should be written. Great for
Caralyn cracking that egg with her left hand. I am left handed and I can't even do that. I wish her the best recovery and a great freshman year.

p.s I sent an email of appreciation to the newspaper.

Rene,

What an inspiring article! Caralyn's determination will stand her in good stead over the next couple years of physical therapy as she builds movement & strength. I can tell she's one of those kids who will find a way to do whatever she sets her mind to.

I'm so glad you went to Mayo! (John will probably go back for a checkup in March - let me know if you might be there at the same time.)

Take care,

Ellen

Thank you, We are so proud of her. I was so worried about what the article was going to say,but she did a really nice job, with the exception of a few items. We are really looking forward to meeting everyone at camp.
