This website I'm posting is to a young girl who died a little over a year ago, Andrea Calhoun. She died of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) something that several people are trying to help find a cure from. This girl attended Camp Jenney a camp for kids with CF. She had many friends. Though I was younger than her, I helped with the horses out there during Camp Jenney because they needed someone who is good with horses. And the called me. If you could check out this page and realize more about this disease and possibly donate money or something to help find a cure. We are having a little well memorial service at camp this summer for Andrea. They of course are no longer having memorial's sent because this was a year ago. But this was brought up out at camp today and I am one of the people who are helping to plan this memorial service. I volunteer my help out there, and hope to send a message across the united states with the help of many councelors and SKs (volunteers like me) to raise more money for this cause. Please check this site out, you don't have to donate or read all of it, just well just look at it. See what CF does to someone. Please, if not for yourself, do it for all the kids and adults with CF, and the many kids born with it every year.

Guys, please look at this. Andrea was very young. And missed by many people.

I just read that article, thanks 4 posting that, I really didn't know much about CF. And as Geri Jewell (victim of Cerebral Palsey) once said, "Questions don't hurt, ignorance does." My prayers are with her remaining family and friends.

Jo: Partners? You mean 50-50? Uh, 50-50-50-50-50?
Blair: Good, Jo, we'll let you do the books!

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

And from your two resident off-topic queens, Danielle and I, who are still looking for that 12 step program by the way:

I know, this is probably making me a pain in the butt to you guys, but I'm in the barn on Rob's laptop because I can't sleep. I beg you guys to check this site out. Just for two seconds. If you want to see how many lives Andrea touched, go to the bottom where you see the links to memories and messages. I miss Andrea so much I haven't been able to post there yet. It's still too hard for me.

If you look at this site and are interested in donating money, tell me and I will find out where you can send money in your state.
