Dear Peggy’s Posse – While we made great strides over the
past 16 months, our goal to KMA hasn’t yet been realized. We will continue the fight in Peggy’s honor,
hoping that the combined effort of the 3 of us can come close to the resolve
and determination of one Peggy! We will
keep updating the blog, so please keep checking in for updates on:
Gym renovations at St. Augustine/St. Monica. Thanks to your generous donations, we are
that much closer to resuming the neighborhood basketball league!
Advances in research to KMA. Based on our experience with Dr. Flaherty, we know he and the
rest of the Karmanos team will put your contributions to good use.
Finishing Peggy’s book.
Yes, that’s right: the book that will chronicle her remarkable journey
to live life Peggy’s Way. Peggy got
things started this summer and we will continue the work to take it over the
finish line – but we still need your inputs!
- First, we need to finish transcribing all the material she
recorded this summer. If you are
interested in helping, drop us a note at peggystudz@gmail.com.
- Second, we need your stories now more than ever! Peggy left a terrific foundation, but we now depend on your stories to help us fill in the gaps. What started as an effort to help us reminisce will now help us finish the book! Keep ‘em coming!
For us, the most important message to all of you is that KMA
Lives On. Through Dr. Flaherty’s
research, through everyone that knew Peggy, through those personally affected
by this horrible disease. And soon, through
those that wear a visible sign of support, a badge to show our continued
support in this fight. Stay tuned!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.
- Keith, Melissa & Andy
