I was touched when hearing about this and wanted to share this with "the family" so we can all try to help. Here is a little info from a newspaper article..... http://www.wiscnews.com/pdr/news/282541 No one is asking that you sent money, but please send cards to help lift her couragous spirit if you are so inclined. Her address is: Emily Miller 851 Dorothy Drive Portage, WI. 53901 As a proud father of 2 healthy teenagers, I feel compelled to join this cause...... and I thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this thread.

CH53Driver Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 I really hate reading stuff like this. However, it sounds like Emily is quite the little lady. We can all b$#%@ about gas prices, cost of oil, doctors pay rates, etc. but when you read something like this it puts it all in perspective. I have my health and good fortune to drive a great car. My biggest worry at the moment is when is the next time I can go drive my car. Then you read things like this and it really sinks home that some people have a lot more to worry about than a lot of us do. Quite sobering actually.

mywickedshelby Posted March 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 for all those that pitched in last year to this wonderful cause with me, I wanted to pass on some great news about our girl Emily Miller....... Last year, we had heard about a 9 year-old girl from Portage, Wisconsin named Emily Miller who was in the midst of a struggle with cancer for the third time in her life. We sent out cards (click here to see the card) to each operating location so that we could send them to her to show our support. Since that time, Emily has undergone a bone marrow transplant and is now back at home with her family. She is done with chemotherapy, but will return to the hospital once a month for injections of antibodies. When asked how she felt once the transplant was over, Emily responded “I’m feeling neat. I’m looking forward to going into the Movie Gallery like Mom and Dad do. That’s the first place I want to go.” Emily’s positive outlook and optimistic attitude have attributed greatly to her recovery. “I wish we all never had to go through all this cancer, but we fought, fought, fought and we made it through. And, if we keep on fighting, I promise we will all never have to get it again.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stump_breaker Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Here's Emily's email address: emiller851atyahoodotcom I just sent her an email. Card's in the mail tomorrow. Hey Ruff. Break up the address or spell out "at" and "dot". Bots cruise the web for email addys to steal and sell to spammers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
