Extreme Home Makeover in MA

Helloooooooooooooo

So I got out of the hospital on Thursday night and Friday morning I went to Maynard Ma to see my buddies from Extreme Home Makeover. I was soooo excited to see Paulie. I miss him so much. I also so my buddies Tonya, Michael, and TY. I got to talk to Ty and he videod it. AND I got to meet Paige, the designer that always wears PINK. I got to go in the house as they were finishing it. It is so cool. I can't tell you what is inside it but you should really watch this story.

I got to sit in the star trailer with Michael, Paige, and Paulie to watch the family go thru the house and see their expressions. That was cool.

I think besides seeing Paulie the other best thing is they made me "TRANSPO CAPTIAN".
They gave me a walkie talkie and I was in total control of the transportation team. I got to send drivers to do all kinds of things. I got to help the designers get things they needed and send it to them. I think I want to work for them and travel with them.

Bye for now. Meghan

CHaD Visit Feb 2008

Lindsey and Meghan

Look at this face.

Hi

Yes we just got home from our two week stay at CHaD (Children's Hospital at Dartmouth)

It was a long 2 weeks but Meghan did fabulous. She had lots of treatments, IV antibiotics, physical and respiratory therapies, and some fun. She met a 13 year old girl with CF that had

never been in the hospital and she helped her out alot. We also met a little girl named Lindsey. I have attatched her web page on the side please check it out. She and Meghan (called MEME by Lindsey) became instant friends.

Ed and Susan Zuckerman of Events Made Ez.

Intercontinental Hotel gave us a Suite, served us cookies and milk and a fabulous time

Hi

We just had the pleasure of going to Miami Fl to see the Hannah Montana concert. We were able to do this because of Disney and Events Made Ez. We started out by flying into Ft Lauderdale where a driver was waiting for us and took us to Wal-Mart to spend an out rageous amount of money on Hannah Montana stuff for me and the wish kids we were going to meet and take with us to the concert.

We were able to meet Miley. She was so nice and took a couple minutes to talk with Meghan. It was so nice. Miley is an outstanding role model. Meghan gave her a autographed picture. Miley said "Thank You that is so nice". They talked about the show a bit and I thanked her for doing a benefit show for an Extreme Home Makeover family, which will air Feb 10th. I know how important that is because we know first hand how much that helps a family.

I can't even begin to tell you the rest of the stories.

I can't thank Disney and Events Made Ez enough for the experience.

God Bless

Sue

CHaD News
CHaD Gets a Christmas Visit from Wal-MartWal-Mart has a long standing relationship with the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth starting back in 2000 when one of their Associates, Sue Richardson, whose daughter, Meghan, was suffering from cystic fibrosis, encouraged her store Manager, District Manager and eventually the VP for the Northeast Region to support New Hampshire's children's hospital, CHaD. Over the past 8 years, the stores in the two states have raised over $1,900,000 for CHaD.

What a great year!!!!

Her Favorite Designer..Paulie

Hi All

Wow what a year 2207 has been. Meghan has had good health. She got to spend a week with her favorite people ..The crew from Extreme Home Makeover. I think this was her favorite point of the year.

Meghan is also a Wish Ambassador for the Make A Wish Foundation of NH. She had alot of fun being the guest speaker at many events around the state. I also became a Wish Granter for them and Meghan and I were honored to grant our first wish to a young man of Nashua what fun that was seeing the smiles.

Meghan's health is great right now. Her lung function is in the 95% range which is better than most adults. She is learning alot about her diabeties. She also got braces. Not her favorite part of last year. Our goal now is to put some weight on her.

This coming year is already getting busy. Meghan is going to West Palm Beach Veterans Day Weekend to be the Media Host for a golf tourney to raise funds for injured veterans. She is very excited about this because Paulie may be going with us and she LOVES to help veterans because her papa and uncle are Vets.

We also have a few other things up our sleeve but can't tell you right now so keep checking in.

This is Katie. She is the most outstanding Childlife Specialist ever.

We are sad to say she is leaving Dartmouth. She has made a major difference in Meghan's life. We will miss her so much. But

we are glad to say she is moving home to be closer to her family.

She will be in charge of a Pedi floor in Wisconsin. They are lucky kids to have her coming there.

WE LOVE YOU KATIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We want to thank Wal-Mart for raising a record breaking $412,ooo for CHaD. Next year they will break the $2 million mark. WOW what lives you have changed for the better.

Well we hope this finds you all well. We wish you the best in 2008.

My Special Friend

Last night at 9:30pm my friend Paige passed away. Yes I am sad
but I know she is home with Jesus now. She touched my life and I will
always have her in my heart. Every time I go to CHaD I will continue
as she and I did to make people smile, give the nurses a hard time, and
go down to visit the moose on the wall. Every time I play dance dance
revolution I know Paige will be right there beside me playing it.

I love you Paige

Love Meghan

This is Meghan's friend Paige. We learned last night that her
battle with cancer is not going well. So Meghan wanted me to
post this on her site to honor Paige. Paige and Meghan are like
in the fact that they are both very strong in their will. They both
love to help others and share things. They both know the pains of
being sick. Meghan wants everyone to know how special Paige is.
Meghan met Paige in April at CHaD. Meghan wasn't having a
good day one day and Paige came up to her and gave her a hug.
No words were needed just seeing the hug and the look Paige gave her
was all Meghan needed. It was priceless. That is the kind of person
Paige is. So from that moment on they were friends. Meghan taught
Paige how to do dance dance revolution. Lots of smiles were made.
So we have tears but we have LOTS of smiles.

Meghan also wants me to put in that this year's "Come Together Show" that her dance

studio puts on to raise funds for CHaD ( Children's Hospital at Dartmouth) will be in honor

of Paige and proceeds will go to the CHaD Pad.
