Hi Mallory,

I have been following your story for a couple of years now and continue to have you in my thoughts and prayers. I"m so glad to hear how well you have been feeling and that you will be starting to school in a couple of weeks. Our lives seem to have cross paths several times and I was surprised when reading your latest journal update about your friend Amanda. Would that happen to be Amanda McCleland? We live in Roswell and have known that family for many years...in fact, my son Roger, dated Amanda for several months before she moved to South Carolina. We knew she was on the transplant list again and I am glad to hear that she did have another transplant...how is she doing? Jude is very cute & I know that he brings you much joy. Always remember that you are constantly surrounded by the prayers & good wishes of so many people.

Take care, Kathy Chupp

We are glad that you are going good good and  Mr. Jude is very cute!!!

We love you

  Hi Mallory,

Little Jude is SO cute! I know you already love him so much. I hope you are feeling better. George and Alex need to be good to you, don"t they?!?!

We are thinking of you and praying for you always!

Love you,

Aunt Robin & Uncle Frank

Hi Mallory, So glad you posted!  We check everydayI think Jude is adorable, I have never seen a dog with such beautiful blue eyes before!I know he is a lot of company for you!  I"ll bet Munchkin is jealous of him! LOL

Golly I feel so sorry for you, I have had a kidney stone before and Ralph has them all the time! There is just no other pain like it!  I have seen Ralph rolling on the floor! He has two now,but thank goodness they haven"t moved, they have dropped down into the bladder.

We were so glad the news on your kidneys was good! Just keep drink anything, but preferably water, as the kidneys don"t have to filter it!

It seems like such a long time since we have seen you!  I hope someday soon we will be able to see you again! We always keep in touch with everything through Kitty & Bobby, but that is not the same as seeing you face to face! They sure are busy trying to get the house in good shape!  With the high gas prices we can"t travel as much as we would like to! Maybe you will keep getting stronger and you will be able to come to Destin"s wedding and we will all see each other again! We enjoyed the last show you did for the hospital! May God continue to Bless You and Your"s every day!

 Hello Mallory sweetie pie,  hope you have a blessed and great week-end.  Jude is so adorable.can"t wait to see him and all of you too, of course.  Love you bunches and bunches...

Maw Maw     

hey Mallory, I just watched the video from last night, you looked great!! I"m really sorry to hear about Alex"s dad. I hope you are enjoying your summer!! Oh, by the way, I think Jude is absolutely adorable!! What breed is he?

Love, Lawanda

Hi Mallory,

It was so nice to see you at the CHOA Transplant Tour.  Your speach was touching and you are a real inspiration to others.  Hope you had a chance to see the pictures.  Maybe we can put some on your website.  I will also have some printed and send them to your Mom.

Have a good week, my thoughts and prayers are with you and also hope to see you again soon.

Hi Mallory and Lisa,

Great News today about the legislation for Childhood Cancer.

by Unanimous Consent in the United States Senate

Children with Cancer and Their Families to Benefit from Legislation

July 17, 2008 (Bethesda, MD) - CureSearch National Childhood Cancer Foundation salutes the United States Senate for its passage of the Conquer Childhood Cancer Act, which promises to significantly increase federal investment into childhood cancer research.

PLEASE notice this message came on the 17th of July!! That"s your Grandfather"s special number letting us know Prayers are being answered for more funds to find a cure!!!  Now all that"s needed is for the President to sign the bill. God Bless you as you push forward and continue to make us all very proud of your determination and faithfulness!! Grace and Peace, Diane

Happy July 17th in memory of Doug.  He was a good guy who worked really hard for you and then turned it over to Izzie to complete your recovery.

Prayers for Doug and Izzie"s family today along with prayers for a good biopsy result.

Hey Mallory! 

That is so sweet about the necklaces!  That made me cry!  :)  See what an inspiration you are.  God has used you in mighty ways, and I know He will continue to do so. 

So are you getting all prepared for KSU in the fall?  Let me know if you need any help.  I have lots of tips.  :)  I am so excited for you! 

Have a super day, and I will see ya later!

Heather  :)                                                                                                            

Great News Mallory!! I am so happy for you and proud too!!  I am thrilled you were able to be part of the ribbon cutting.  How special for you and Mom to receive such thoughtful gifts!!

Jude is adorable.  How cool is that birthdate???  What is baby Jude"s breed?  Keep having these super days and save up your energy for the Fall session at KSU!!!  Lots of Love, Diane

Mallory,

We are praying for a good result on the biopsy.  Jude is absolutely adorable and I can"t wait to meet him in person.  Since he was born on the 17th it sounds like you two were meant for each other.

Great job at the CHOA grand opening.  We are so proud of you.

Congratulations Mallory!!!  You did a beautiful job today with your speech!!!!!  You choked me up and I"m so glad I didn"t just cry my eyes out.  And to think you haven"t started college yet and you already have two job offers!  All good things are coming for you now!!  And I can"t believe your new baby was born on May 17th!!  He (she?) is sooo cute.  Just be ready to make a lot of trips to the backyard for training.  Mr. Mac is so proud of you too and one day he"ll take you to the Crimson Caravan so you can hear all the scoop on Alabama football!  Love and hugs to all of you.  Thanks for sharing your day with us.

Just letting you know that we love you and are always praying for you. I know you will do great Tuesday...you are the bravest girl I know, and we are all so proud of you!

Love you lots,

Aunt Robin

Mal:

What a great site you have. Just read your story and looked at all your photo"s. I had a Liver Transplant in 2005, due to the fact that I had a rare disease.

I belong to a support group at the hospital where I had my transplant. Three of my best friends (my second family) had Wilsons Disease. One of my frinds, Jessica Chipkin  set up the Wilsons Group on Transplantcafe.com that you just joined.

It is great talking to other liver transplant recipients and reading about their stories. Have a great day.

Hey Mal!  What a great surprise to run in to you in the bathroom at the movie theater.  By the way, what movie were you there to see?  We saw the Indiana Jones movie... it was pretty good.  Any recommendations?

Now that I am caught up on your recent events... I too am glad you are back at home! We are still praying for you and Valerie.... we have our fingers crossed for an excellect biopsy report!

By the way... did I hear that you are supposed to start KSU soon?

Coach G...

Hi Miss Mallory,

Mal:

Welcome home again from the hospital and greetings from Buckhead where I work for Georgian Bank.

I hope you had a great 4th --- my wife, Sally, and I just returned from a wonderful trip to California with 7 other couples.  We were in Carmel and it was beautiful --- the weather over the weekend had highs of 68 - 70 degrees and lows in the 50"s with very low humidity --- a lot different from Georgia!

On our flight home Monday, I started to think about football season and my beloved UGA Bulldogs - if I remember correctly from a prior email, aren"t you a Bulldog,too?

So I wanted to share i joke that my mom told me. She got it off one of those laffy taffy wrappers. Sooo.. anyways...

What do you call a cow with a twitch?????

Beef Jerky!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Thought you would appreciate that!!! 

Hey Mal!!!!

We are sooooo... Glad that your labs were good today we hope and pray they continue to get better!!!! We saw your parents at church on Sunday it was nice seeing them hope to see you soon!!!

We love you and will continue praying for you and your family and your friend Valerie!!!

Hi Mal!  I"m Michelle, a co-worker of your Mom"s.  She"s been keeping us informed on your progress throughout this journey.  I just have to tell you that you are an inspiration to us all.  Your strength and courage are truly amazing.  My four year old, Zachary, keeps you in our prayers each night even though he hasn"t met you yet.  Like I said, you"ve touched us all.

We"ll continue to pray and you continue to improve each day with the same wonderful attitude you are so well-known for.

Good morning, Mallory!  My name is Brooke Baldasare and I work at Georgian Bank.  A very sweet email reached me this morning and told me the story of you!  I looked through your adorable pictures with all of your friends and I was truly touched.  I don"t know you, but you have so many people who know and love you, so I know without a doubt that you are an awesome individual who loves dearly and is dearly loved by all who know you!  You absolutely glow in your pictures, Mallory, and I know that God is using you every day for His great plan for your life!  None of us are here by accident and you are certainly here for a major purpose, which is so evident in the faces of your friends and family that YOU have touched.  I want you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.  Many people say that, but I am going to keep your email in my Inbox so that I can start off every day praying for you, Mallory!  May God bless you like is always does, may He give you His super-natural strength during the difficult times and may you ALWAYS know how YOU are a wonderfully unique individual who is going wonderful places and is dearly loved by the Jesus Christ and anyone who has been blessed enough to meet you (or hear your story)!  God will always bless you and never leave you, Mallory.  With love, admiration for you and of course, huge hugs, Brooke Baldasare :)

Hey Mallory,

I don"t know you, but I work at Georgian Bank in Cumberland. I wanted to ask if you happen to know my husband Ryan Herrier? He went to Kennesaw Mountain High too. You probably do, he was a wild one. We got married in January and had a baby girl on March 29, 08. Her name is Ansley Hayden Herrier. She weighed 8lbs 1oz talk about big baby. My whole pregnancy I had to give myself two shots in the stomach daily because I had a blood clot. Gosh it sucked so bad. I know it is nothing compared to what your going through. I"m very sorry. I will keep you in my prayers daily. Anyways if you want to have another pen pal, I"m more than happy to write.Hope to talk to you soon.

Mal-

How is my favorite two-time transplant patient?  I hope that you are continuing to do better.  I just completed my college degree last week.  It was both an honor and a privilege to see one of my dreams actually come true!  I know that you will eventually finish your education and be the best transplant nurse Egelston has ever seen.  My husband and I will continue to pray for your good health.  Hang in there!

Love, Michelle

Hey Mallory,

Yeah!!  You got to go to Clinique!  Did you let them do a make-over on you so that you could get some new colors that you liked?!  I hope so...that is always a lot of fun.  :)  I love all of the fun lip glosses they come out with.  Glad you had a fun shopping day!  

Have a Happy 4th!! 

Heather :)
