As much as our mom dislikes being in pictures, she allowed me to spend
the day at her clinic, KidSPOT, taking photos of her with her clients. While I was there, several parents of the kids she works with greeted me
with enthusiasm. They wanted to tell me how much they loved my mom, and
how wonderful she is with their child. One parent had this to say:
"Leslie is very passionate about what she does. She really cares about
these kids, and it shows in how she interacts with them". It was so nice
to hear how much these families appreciated my mom and all that she
does. I'm glad I was able to capture some of these moments of my mom
helping the kids she cares so much about. Check out the photo gallery
for new pictures. -Caroline
Thank you to our supporters so far -- we really appreciate your kind acts and words of encouragement.
Our mom spent this Halloween with the "Red Devil", a nickname given to the
chemo drug Doxorubicin because of its nasty side effects and red color.
This was her second dose. She also made it through another work week,
tho she had to cut down to 50% of her caseload to conserve energy. The
need for an OT hire is more crucial than ever. Her first viable
applicant has responded to the job post, so now she needs the financial
backing to make an offer. She is competing with large companies that
offer up to $20,000 sign-on bonuses, but hopefully that will not sway
potential candidates. New picture posts show why she must push forward
-- its all about the kids.
