August Update

Hi All --

Its been a rollercoaster week here.

On Saturday we attended an incredible event held by the generous folks at Winky Dink Ink Tattoos in West Nyack.

Artists decorated and donated skate decks for a silent auction in Kerry's honor. It was an incredible night and the event raised over $1,800!!! Thanks to all that came out and donated their time and support to making this such a success!


Unfortunately late Saturday night Kerry woke up feeling shakey. Our mom immediately rushed Kerry to Sloan where she was treated in urgent care and checked into the ICU on sunday. Kerry was treated for a severe infection and closely monitored.

Today kerry's levels were back up and she is being transferred back to the leukemia wing! This is great news. Kerry is a fighter and keeps on proving that cancer is not going to stop her!


We truly appreciate all of the love and support you've been sending our way.


Thanks for everything!


Here's a great shot of kerry drawing the raffle winners at the event saturday:

Hi All!

Kerry began consolidation chemo yesterday at Sloan Kettering.

She will be in the hospital until Saturday getting chemo for a few hours each day. Kerry will come home to recover from the chemo. it will be a tough few weeks, but we're hoping this round of chemo will be easier to handle since Kerry is strong and healthy going into it.

Once Kerry recovers from this round of chemo it will be time for the final round of chemo, radiation, and her transplant.

Keep the positive thoughts coming! You can send cards and greetings to kerry to the P.O. Box: P.O. Box 166, Thiells, NY 10984


Will update you all soon!
