Olivia is looking forward to meeting...

Donna Quirke Hornik. Astute long-time readers may remeber when my oldest friend (we met at the top of an apple tree in kindergarden) Jeremy Hornik visited Olivia when she was just a few months old. He and his wife Sheila have a daughter, Donna, who is a few months older than Olivia. Three months ago they discovered a tumor in Donna's brain. The whole family has since been on a roller coaster involving several surgeries, too many nights in the hospital, many scans and tests, good news, bad news, chemotherapy, and (blessedly) many fun-filled symptom-free days. Jeremy and Sheila have been keeping an online journal to keep friends and family informed. We have been watching her progress day by day, and are at times joyous, heartbroken, sad, and hopeful. Please take a moment to send some healing energy Donna's way. We love you and we're pulling for you Donna- one strong little girl to another!
