This is Markie, she is 4 1/2 years old. Markie was diagnosed with brain cancer when she was only 2 years old. Markie
has had 3 brain surgeries the last one at the end of February 2005. During this last surgery Markie suffered a stroke.
The stroke left Makie unable to speak or move her right arm or leg. In the weeks since the surgery, the doctors sent
Markie home to help speed her recovery. In the last few weeks Markie is speaking and walking again. She is gaining
more and more control with her right arm.
What you need to know about Markie is she is an amazing little girl, with great determination. There is not alot
that Markie wants that she doesn't get. And when she decided she wanted to speak or walk she did it! She has a great support
in family and friends. In the weeks and months to come, there will be alot of things happening, some will be good and
others not so good. Markie and her family ask that you continue to pray.
Please watch for updates and we will let you know about upcoming events to raise money for the family. And continue
to update you on Markies progress.
Many of us have seen the great things God has done in Markies life. And know he will continue to bless Markie
and her family......
