June 2009 Update








Hey all,

Hope this email finds all of you doing well. It's been awhile since the last post. Team Madden just completed our 3rd Survivor's Walk this past Sunday! Chris is doing really well and this year's walk was even more special because Chris and Anne's new baby, Liam, did the walk with his Dad and Mom!

Liam's cousin Graham did the walk for the first time (ex-utero, that is) and Aiden O'Brien is batting 1000 as he did the walk for the second time in his 2nd year! The babes were out in full force.

Thanks to the O'Connor cousins for rallying again this year--your good cheer and energy is always appreciated!

Another special part of this year's walk was that our friend Bob Winkelmann and his wife, Karen, were able to join us as well. Bob is celebrating several years of remission after a stem cell transplant that saved his life.

Please remember to join the marrow registry if you have not already done so, and please continue to encourage friends and family members to do the same. It is so easy to do and you can save someone's life if you donate your stem cells or your child's cord blood.(See links at right for more info).

Thanks again to all of our friends and family for your support, thoughts and prayers the past few years.
Take care,

The Maddens
