Madison Seeley | 2010 Honored Hero

2010 Honored Hero

Meet Madison Seeley, one of our honored heroes for 2010.

3 year old, Madison was diagnosed with (ALL) leukemia on Aug. 26, 2009. Before she was diagnosed she was an active toddler enjoying tap dancing and ballet. Madison loves to dance.

Like any little girl, she loves her nails and hair done. Everything has to be neat and clean or she gets upset. After Madison was diagnosed, she became very sick and spend many days in the hospital fighting off infections and the effects of her Chemotherapy treatments. She continues to go through her treatments at Albany Medical Center, expected to last well into 2011. Only her feisty personality and the support of her loving family will help in her fight to beat this deadly disease.

At home she is supported by her older brother Michael (12), parents Sandra "Sandy" Watson, father Robert Seeley and new baby sister, Abby, who was born March 17th, 2010.

Madison and her family need your support and prayers.

Emma Spaeth | 2010 Honored Hero

2010 Honored Hero

Meet Emma, one of our honored heroes for 2010.

In December of 2009, our 4-year-old Emma was sufferung from joint pain and swelling. It was so intense that she was unable to walk at times. At first, doctors diagnosed Emma with Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis.

While completing the necessary testing for diagnosis and treatment of arthritis, doctors found Emma to indeed have Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). On March 19th, 2010, Emma began her first chemotherapy treatments. She has endured multiple spinal taps, bone marrow biopsies, and side effects due to treatment, but, through it all, she has a positive attitude. On April 19th, 2010, our Princess Emma achieved remission. She will continue to face demanding chemotherapy for the next 2 years.

Emma has hopes of Kindergarten playdates, meeting the Disney princesses, and playing with her little brother. She loves to receive well-wishes through Caring Bridge at her Caringbridge.org website. She is our brave little princess.

At home she is supported by her younger brother, Henry (20-Month old), parents Phil, who is the music director at St. Peters Church in Saratoga and stay-at-home mom Maria.

Emma and her family need your support and prayers.
