Link 4 Life

Our dear friends are organizing a "Link 4 Life" 5K Run and 1 Mile Walk and silent auction in honor of Thatcher. It will be held at Smiley Hollow in Ridgetop, TN on Saturday, April 23 at 8:00 a.m.  Everyone is invited to participate in an effort to raise funds for Thatcher’s transplant related expenses including medications as well as food and living expenses for our extended stay in Pittsburgh. If you are interested, please visit http://www.link4life5k.moonfruit.com/. For all you Facebookers, there is also a page dedicated to the event: http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=190268637659711.


We are so blessed to have such great friends who care enough about us to put such a great event together. It is no small task I’m sure. BJ and I are both touched by the response, and I know God is working through them. I feel as though I’m learning how to be there for others as our friends and family carry us through. I pray that God uses us for His glory and that I can return the kindness one day. Friends, family, and even complete stranges check on us, let us know they are praying, help care for Amelia, offer a shoulder to cry on, and have given donations. We do not take this for granted and want people to know that we not only appreciate it, but they can trust any donations will be used to help heal Thatcher.
