Anyone hear from MaryAnn
I noticed that Mary Ann (madubois63) hasn't posted in a while and was wondering if anyone has heard from her? The last post I remember is around the holidays after she had the bone marrow transplant and had just come home. Anyone know how she's doing

I asked about her a couple weeks ago and someoneposted she was home recovering, I believe, medical issues from the transplant. It is my understanding there is much more that goes along with these transplants then we realize. If it works it takes care of a life threatening problem and yet that person has to deal with many others. I hope she is doing well and hope to hear from her. Of course, her computer maybe down. hugs, Sandy

worried now
Hello,
Is there anyone who can contact her to make sure she is okay? She was so good at posting and keeping us informed of her progess, it's troubling that she hasn't posted in awhile - maybe she could use our help?

Just letting you know!
I have sent Maryann a personal e-mail as we have e-mailed in the past. I will let you know as soon as I hear anything. I am getting worried at this point and hope its because her computer is down. hugs, Sandy

Also praying that all is as well as can be expected for Maryanne. She has definitely touched us all and become such an inspiration as well. Sure hope all is okay and she is just busy recuperating.
