Ladies Night Out

Maddy is gearing up to start the third cycle of chemo in her current phase of treatment.  She was supposed to begin today, but as usual, her counts have caused her to be delayed atleast a week.  The one positive thing about being delayed this time is that Maddy had a lot she wanted to get done this week, so she was happy.  The ABC 4 Maddy Relay for Life team is in full swing and Maddy really wanted to attend a couple of events that were scheduled this week starting with "Ladies Night Out" on Monday.  This event was organized by the 5 wonderful ladies pictured with Maddy and it was a huge success raising over $3600 for Relay for Life.  There is also the bake sale sponsored by ABC 4 Maddy scheduled for Friday at the Archbold Relays track meet.  Maddy is excited about this event as well.  She is going to bake cookies with grandma!


Maddy is looking and feeling well and that makes us VERY happy!  Seeing her get excited about these events and enjoying life is so much fun.  It is times like these that give us the strength to make it through the hard times!

  2. It sure was a SUPER fun time! Our whole committee was so thrilled that you were able to spend the evening with us. You really did an awesome job picking tickets for the raffle! I am sure Mrs. Johnson was really happy you picked her name out 3 TIMES, too! The whole night was just awesome, and the best part was seeing you smile and have a great time!
