Amelia in Baltimore

Today we found out about a really cool little girl in Baltimore. Her name is Amelia, and she was diagnosed with Leukemia when she was 4. She is now 6 and a half, and she is in the final stages of her treatment. The doctors plan on having all of her treatments completed in 28 days! We're gonna make a special stop at Sinai Hospital to meet all of Amelia's doctors and friends when we ride through Baltimore on July 6. Apparently, everyone at the hosptial thinks Amelia is a "hoot" - I can't wait to find out for myself!

These are some pictures that Amelia's mom sent us. In the second picture, you can see how her face was swollen from treatment.

That is a picture of Amelia and her brother. I think it is them on the first day of school. Thanks for reading our journal.
