Hi Catie, Just wanted to say 'Hi' and to tell you how much I am looking forward to seeing you and your family at the Event on Saturday here in Basking Ridge! Everything seems to be ready and now all we need is you and your brother and sisters- oh, and your Mom and Dad too!!! Tell Max, Maggie, Mia, Molly and M.E. I say hello and I'm sorry I missed you all when you were at Mom-Mom's today! See you soon! Love, Mrs. Gilbreth
Hi Catie, I am a neighbor of John Christie one of your classmates. Just wanted to let you know that my husband and I are praying for you and your family. Hang in there. God is good all the time! Love Cyndi Evans
Dear Catie, Good luck to you & your Mom as you return to St. Judes. Our thoughts & prayers are with you as you start your new treatments!! Love, Myrna & Bill Everly
Dear Catie, I am the principal at your Aunt Colleen.s school. Know that we are all praying for you and thinking of you. Your faith and strength are an example for all of us. You are special. God love you. Betty Turner
Hi Catie! You may not remember me because I only met you once, but we happened to be wearing the same red and white polka dots the day you came to Lucy's First Holy Communion. I work with your Aunt Colleen at Holy Cross. You're in my prayers, my family's prayers, and all those at my brother's air force base. Your pictures are quite lovely. We are all praying for you to have a healthy and productive trip to Memphis. May angels watch over you 0:-)
It was so good to see you and your mom this afternoon. Knowing you'd rather not have to come to Memphis under these circumstances, yet I felt joy in seeing you and your mother again. I was glad when you smiled at Kaitlyn who was with us! Thank you and your mom for the generous gift certificate to Chili's restaurant which we are just now about to go and enjoy. God's Blessings!
Hi Catie, Today was a big day for you going back to Saint Jude's. We pray that you had a safe arrival and that there wasn't much pain incurred. Gracie was so happy she was able to see you, she has been wanting to do this for some time. It was so good to see two "Best Friends Reunited". Gracie and Gabrielle pray for you every night and ask that God and their Pop Pop to watch over you and help you to get well. You are such an inspiration to me and my family. Keep on fighting Catie with that winning smile and ever joyous sparkle in your eyes. You can beat this! Love, Gracie, Gabrielle, Amy, and John McKee 8) 8)
Hey Catie, I will miss your smiling face in the hallway. We went to Chilis tonight! We had a great time. Our waitress Nicole knew Tim from his High School. Everyone was so friendly. Did you know that the waitresses and waiters gave their tips to St. Jude's hospital? The world is full of wonderful people! We left a big tip!!! Love ya, Mrs. Zabroske
hiii christine and catie! The following message is straight from Molly: "I love you. There's a new kitchen table and it is BEAUUUTIFULLL. My Band-Aid hurts. I have to eat my Band-Aid." (she's not wearing a Band-Aid, by the way.) wish you were here :)
Hello Catie and Christine - I understand you are at the Grizzlies House. Well I hope that your tests results turn out to be good news...after all tomorrow is the Feast of Saint Terese the Little Flower! Know that we all love and miss you so much! May you receive a clean bill of health soon! Love and prayers, Aunt "BookCase"
Hi Catie, We have not met but, even here in Africa, I have heard about how wonderful and brave you are. I will be holding you in my prayers and following your news closely. With love, Leigh Meinert, Cape Town, South Africa
Dear Miss Catie! Hope your trip to Memphis was smooth! Everyone misses you in Mechanicsburg! My mom especially! She thinks you are wonderful = therefore I do too! You may find it strange that your music teachers' daughter thinks about you often - well here is a CRAZY fact about me that will help you know a little bit about how I know you are special: I danced for 48 hours straight with no sitting down or sleeping two different years to raise money for pediatric cancer while I was at Penn State. I remember how tired I was, how much my body ached, and how much I didn't want to go to class the next day. Everyone was telling me how brave I was - but I knew that I wasn't nearly as brave as anyone who faced cancer. YOU, Miss Catie, are my hero! So, I will continue to pray for you and try to be a better person each day- because you are so brave and wonderful! Keep smiling! :-) Love - Catherine (mrs. hodges' daughter!)
Dear Catie, We are so happy to hear your good news from the spinal tap! You are in God's capable hands, after all he is the best Doctor there is. We are praying for you every day! XO Cookie, Ray, Christine & Andrew :grin
Know that the entire Central Catholic community is grateful for the good news and the 1000 of us continue to keep you all in our prayers. Kids come up to me in the hallway all the time and say, "Miss Closkey, how's Catie?" They all feel like they know you and they want you to come visit when you're home safe, sound, and have a clean bill of health.
Happy Thursday Catie!!! Was sooo excited to read the good reports. Butterflies and HOPE! : ) I have to give a shout out to your music teacher's daughter Catherine - YEAH THON!!! Our daughter Meghan was very much involved in THON when she was a student at PSU - we would host the canners and really miss that, but we all still attend THON every year. Thank you for dancing FTK! It's a small world out there Catie....love when I read a "connection". Victor and I will be going to Boston next weekend to visit Michele - it is the first "canning" weekend of THON, so we're going to wear our THON shirts and hopefully meet up with other Penn Staters. I hope it's a beautiful day in TN - the wind is blowing here, but the sun is shining! I better go pack - tomorrow I'm driving to Maryland to pick up our 14 yr old cousin Sara and then we're continuing down to DC to visit Meghan. Have a wonderful evening! Sending lots of love, hugs and prayers. Catherine is correct - YOU ARE OUR HERO! love, sylvia xoxo
Hi Catie! How are you doing? I miss you at school. I hope you get better soon. I wish I could have been at the church last Sunday. I was at my cousin's house in VA. Take care. Love, Jensen :) :grin
Hi Catie, I hope you feel better, I am praying the doctors will make you better. It made me so happy to see you a couple of weeks ago. I miss you. Love, Gracie
Hi Catie, So happy that your tests came out good!! Our thoughts & prayers are with you as you start your new treatments that will begin your road to recovery. We haven't met, but hope we will soon. Love & prayers, Myrna & Bill Everly
Hi Catie, I wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was to meet you, your mom, and sister at the Target House the other night. I had a lot of fun with you all and I hope you had just as much fun. I love your website, I am glad your mom told me about it. I will check back periodically on your website. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Jeff from the land of Mickey!
Hey... hope you are enjoying the nice weather down there while it gets cold up here! Glad everything seems to be going so great... miss you guys wish I could have seen you while you were up! Katie
Catie, Way to go eating above your caloric intake! Keep up the "Great Eating" We pray you can keep this going. Have fun making pottery, it sounds cool. Love, Amy, John, Gracie and Gabrielle McKee
Catie, I (Jen) work with your dad at Rite Aid. My daughter is 8 years old, and attends Holy Name of Jesus school in Harrisburg. We are so sorry we will miss your fun run. We were really looking forward to meeting you there. We will be attending the Notre Dame-Navy game that day, so we will send lots of Fighting Irish spirit your way-you certainly show all of us how to "Play Like a Champion Today"!
Hi Catie, We think about you every day and continue to pray for your health. Stay strong! Hugs from Anna and Nico. Love, Lee Ann, David, Anna and Nico :)
Hi Catie! I read all of your mommy and daddy's e-mails. They are so meaningful to me! I am Michael and Kim Lane's sister in law. Do you know them? My husband David is Michael's brother. We are coming to Mechanicsburg tomorrow! David's sister Julie is getting married on Saturday. My children will be in the wedding. Kiara, 7, will be a "junior brides maid", but wearing the same dress as the flower girls. She will be making her First Reconciliation and First Communion this school year just like you! Christianne will turn 5 years old tomorrow and is excited to have her birthday on an airplane! She will be a flower girl. Andrew is 2 1/2 and he will be the ring bearer. I know I wouldn't get to meet you when we are in Mechanicsburg, but maybe we'll see your family at church on Sunday. It just depends what Mass we go to. Say hi to your mommy and daddy for me. Maybe they'll read this letter, too? My children and their friend lit two candles for you about a month ago and prayed for you! I have three of your parents' letters in my purse to take rand ead on the airplane tomorrow! I hope you are feeling well. You are such a sweetheart and God loves you and your family very much. Time to put Andrew down for his nap. Have a happy day! Sincerely, Jennie Lane p.s. Please pray that we have a safe and happy trip, with plenty of joy filled family time. We really need some happy family time.

Catie and Christine- Yesterday our Diocese had a pilgrimage to the National Shrine in DC. We took 4 buses of our students. When we arrived I said to one of the other chaperones, my friend Tom, which of the side altars should we light a candle for Catie at. There are about 50 smaller side altars and shrines, all dedicated to Mary at the Basilica. Every title we have for Mary has a side altar. So we looked, Our Lady of Czeschtowa, Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Our Lady of the Rosary, Our Lady Help of Christians, Our Lady of Guadalupe, the list goes on...then we get to THE ONE, the Shrine to the Miraculous Medal. That's where we lit the candle. It was probably around 12noon or so. The day was great! Our students were fantastic and Matthew Kelly is praying for you! Know that I love and miss you both! In the joy of the Lord, Aunt "book" case
Hi Catie How is our girl today? I was so touched by your journal entry on superheroes. Please know YOU are our superhero. You are such a star and we love you dearly. May God continue to bless you, mom, dad, and your siblings. With much love and admiration, Aunt Marissa, Uncle Saj, Cole and Alessandra
Hi Christine and Catie, I want you to know that I will never forget meeting both of you. I enjoyed your company in memphis and one day I will bring my son Alex ( 8 yrs young on Nov. 2)to meet you and your Mom and the rest of your family. My love and prayers go out to both of you. Zeo Mike Milanese
