Thank You for Your Prayers

I don't know about you but one of the first things I do when I learn someone is in trouble or sad or needs help is say a prayer for them. I pray for strangers I learn about on tv, online, or through friends. I pray for loved ones and I even pray for animals and pets. We have recently learned about all the people praying for Tami and a lot of us feel it is really helping Tami. We can never find a way to thank you enough for all the prayers.

We have received so many messages online praying for Tami and it means so much to her family. We also learned that a very special couple recently spoke Tami's name at their Synagogue! Their entire congregation prayed for her that evening.

Another family friend that has been vacationing in Europe actually prayed for Tami at the Vatican! I just know it has helped Tami so much to have so many kind people caring for her.

Others have included Tami's name, among other names, to their prayer circles. A prayer circle can be a group of individuals either in person actually holding hands or a group of friends and acquaintances or an online community that prays for its members and anyone else the members mentions as needing them.

We ask that you continue to offer up your prayers for Tami. She will be needing them for awhile now. So please by all means say those prayers!!!

A Special Thank You to Team Matthew

We would like to officially thank Team Matthew for all their help during the recent San Jose, California marrow drive for Tami!!  

Matthew is 27 years old and suffers from Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML).  He is also in need of a bone marrow donation.  Team Matthew has so many donor drives scheduled in the California area and a few in Oklahoma.  Remember, Tami's match may also be found at one these drives just like Matthew might be able to find a match at Tami or someone else's donor drive. 

We hope to continue to work with Team Matthew in the near future. 

Thank You One and All

Tami would like to thank everyone who participated in the donor drive hosted for her this week. She would also like to thank those who organized and participated in the recent fundraiser on her behalf. The generosity of those who became part of the national marrow registry, the donations, the time and effort from those of you who are organizing and setting up the events, the encouraging messages and the prayers from all, mean more then she, or we her family, can possibly thank you enough for.

But with much appreciation we would all like to say thank you.
