I need you.

Actually, if you want to get literal, Ms. Hillary St. Pierre , needs you. In fact, she is a really tough cookie, and probably doesn't need anyone. But, I'm asking you, for me.

I need your help, for Ms. Hillary.

Isn't she a cutie?

So, Ms. Hillary, is a spitfire of a woman. She's twenty six. Has a beautiful son. And, as far as being a Hodgkin's patient, has undergone almost everything possible, for standard treatment. And here's the part, where I need my loyal, supporters to help. Hillary, although, being the independent, beautiful, stubborn, woman she is. Hil Just underwent an allo-transplant at Dana Farber. Her second transplant within a year. Personally, I can't even imagine. One transplant, is all my body could ever handle.

Unfortunately, her one hundred day scan, was not a positive one. After her allo-transplant, (stem cells from a donor), it appears that the cancer has returned, once again. Hillary is in no way, giving up. She's looking for other holistic treatments, diets, and other paths of treatments to keep that beautiful smile of her's going. But, just as you've all watched me, after a failed transplant. You know the heartbreak, and pain this kind of scan can bring upon someone. Their family, and friends.

It is utterly, heart-wrenching. And, I can't even imagine how I would feel after two transplant.

So, what do I need from you?

I have always been overwlemed with the amount of support, I receive on my blog. E-mails, and phone calls. I get. No matter what news comes my way. Therefore, If you care about me. I need you to utilize that support, and share it with Hillary. She is going through more than ANYone should, let alone, at the age of twenty six, with a family.

So, instead of leaving me comments, or e-mailing me, or sending positive vibes to me at this time. I ask you to focus your loving, incredibly beautiful, thoughts, smiles, love, and support to Hillary. She needs you. And even if she won't admit it -- cause she is as stubborn as I am ;) I'M telling you. I need it. I need you, to support, someone. The way you support me.

or if you'd like to send something more personal..

her e-mail is:

I have full faith, that Hillary has tons of supporters in her own network. But, in my mind, there is no such thing -- as having too many supporters, in your corner, when facing this kind of battle.

In advance, I thank you, thank you, thank you. For your love.
