Hope for Kate

Just bought my tickets for Community for Kate, a fundraiser for the Drury family taking place on June 7th. Two and a half-year old Kate Drury has been struggling with illness since she was nine months old. Here is a bit about Kate, and here is the Hope for Kate website.
Kate is a couple of months younger than Lil C. Her mom Julie and I worked together 13 years ago (Julie, if you’re reading this, can you believe it was that long ago!) and now we occasionally run into each other in the neighborhood. When Julie was pregnant with Kate, and I with Lil C, we were occasionally in the same prenatal yoga class. That makes me think of her often.
Hope to see you there!

I remember…but it couldn’t have been 13 years ago (or shouldn’t be…we aren’t that old !).
Thanks for blogging about Kate Lisa. It’s been a difficult 2+ years. We’ve all adapted and continue to be challenged. It’s a life I never imagined.
