Dear Mal,

I"m so sorry things aren"t going so smoothly right now.  I check on you through your journal everyday.  I know things are going to start looking up.  Praying for no pain, and a quick and speedy recovery.  Just keep thinking about that puppy.

You are Winning!!!!

Shari

Mallory,

You don"t know me but I am a mom from the LiverFamilies website.  I have been following your journey and check in on you everyday.

I"m crossing my fingers and toes for you today.  I hope there will be an easy solution for the fluid.

My son is only 5 and is doing well so he"s not headed for transplant at this time.  I think of you daily and hope you get to go HOME in the very near future.

Stay strong.  I can tell you are a fighter (and your mom, too)!!

Colleen (a liver mom)

HEY MALLORY,

LITTLE BLESSINGS DAYCARE SENDS LOVE, SMILES, & PRAYERS TO YOU!!!!!

HEY MAL,

I"M SORRY YOU HAD ANOTHER BAD NIGHT. I PRAY THAT TODAY WILL BE EASIER ON YOU. I LOVE YOU!

BRIDGET

MORNING MAL,

WE HOPE THAT YOU HAD A GOOD NIGHT, AND HAVE A BETTER DAY TODAY. HOPING TO SEE YOU REAL SOON.

LOVE YA,

GAIL

  Hi Mal, sorry to hear that you have had a couple of rough bays. Jeannie and I check on you every day and she talks to Maw Maw often. You are always in our prayers and in our thoughts. With all the support and love that I see on this site I have no doubt that things will be good soon. Take care and try to eat.

Hey Mallory and Lisa.

I also read your journal every day.  When I am in training at my new bank they understand that we do not start until I have read Team Mal!  You guys now have a whole new bank praying for you!  Of course I still feel a part of Georgian Bank Family.

Mallory I pray today is a good day and each new day gets better!

Lisa you take care of yourself as well!

Melanie Elliott

Hang in there Mal.  One day you"ll be trying to lose 10 pounds and all you"ll want to do is eat choc. chip cookies!

We love you and know you are on the way up and outta there!!  terry wishes he had your appetite so he could lose weight.  He"s still celebrating the big BAMA win!! 

jm tm and am 

Hi Miss Mallory,

If it were possible, I"d be happy to lend you some of my appetite; heck, I"d even GIVE it to you permanently! Seriously, I"ve got my fingers crossed that it won"t be long until we hear the good news that you"re strong enough and stable enough to start thinking about going home. So many people that you will never even know are including you in their prayers...

xox,

Dr. J

Hang in there Mal (and Lisa)!  You are so close to home!  We are thinking about you and praying for you and your family!

Love,

The Whitfield"s

Hi Mallory and Lisa,

Wanted you to know we are praying for you daily, and especially thought of you on the last two weekends.  First, walking 5 miles around Stone Mountain to raise funds for the American Liver Foundation.  And also at the Georgia Transplant Foundation"s Wellness Conference on Saturday.  You had loud cheers from us when they announced your Scholorship Award & we took a picture of your slide up on the big screens so will get that to you in the near future!  Our prayers are with you Mallory for your strength and appetite to increase.  Lisa, praying for your endurance as well.  Take care and the Lord bless you all.

In His Love,

Karen Shaw

Hey Mallory!  I hope you are having a great day today.  Remember hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.  If there is anything at all you feel like eating, you have all of the TEAM Mal supporters at your disposal.  Just let someone know what you want.

I think a new puppy would be a wonderful get well present.  Nothing makes you feel better than holding and loving on a puppy.  The one they had at the Children"s health care auction was soooo cute.  Maybe you can talk Jane into giving it to you.

Everyone at Georgian Bank is praying for you and your family.  We talk about you all the time and can"t wait until you feel yourself again.  The world is truly a better place with you in it!  Keep the faith!

Mallory... who do you know in Mississippi!? Last night when I was driving back to school I was behind a car from there with the license plate, "777 MAL."

Crazy right?!

Hi Mal and Lisa!

I just wanted to say hello.  I"ve been reading the journal faithfully and I have been praying for Mal"s pain levels to be tolerable and her recovery to be quick.  She is a miracle!!

Please know that we are thinking of all of you and praying every day.

Much love to all of you,

Dorothy

Mallory,

Your Alabama Team performed quite well on Saturday, as you know.  As a UGA fan, I also enjoyed watching the Tennessee defeat.

I"m glad to hear that you continue to improve and hope that your appetite will soon return.  All of us at Georgian Bank continue to speak of you often and keep you in our thoughts and prayers.  Stay strong and help take care of your mother.  Tell her that we all miss her.

Steve Tibbitts

MAL,

GLAD TO KNOW THAT ALL YOU LEVELS ARE OK TODAY.  BUT YOU HAVE TO START EATING SOMETHING BABY GIRL THAT WAY YOUR BODY CAN START TO HEAL FASTER. IT ONLY TAKES A FEW EXTRA BITES TO HELP YOU OUT.  LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT ANY THING AT ALL.......

LOVE YOU

LOVE,

GAIL, JEFF JP, NICOLE & PAUL

I LOVE YOU MALLORY.  THANKS FOR THE PICTURE.  HAVE A GOOD DAY.  IT IS RAINING HERE.

LOVE CYNTHIA

GOOD MORNING,

I HOPE YOU HAVE A BETTER DAY.  YOU ARE A FIGHTER AND YOU ARE STRONG.  I AM GLAD ALABAMA WON SATURDAY.  ROLL TIDE!!

I WILL SEE YOU SOON...HUGS TO YOU, KIM

Hi Mallory, Wow! Don"t know if you remember me.Brett was in your HR & I"m his mom.  I was your character ed partner your jr year. Brett told me you had "something wrong" last year but he didn"t know much-typical male -they don"t ask questions!  I had no idea that you have been so sick!  Gloria Shurette who used to work with your mom asked our SS class to pray for you.  We will and  I"ll also  send out a mass e-mail w/the link to your site to all of my friends to join in praying for your complete recovery.  You may not know but Brett is an aspiring chef.  He wants to know if there is a special treat he could bake for you.  Do you have a favorite cake, cookie or other food?  He also says you"re too sweet to be sick and he"ll be praying for you!!!  Serious about the treat.  He can make it & I"ll make sure you get it. More later but our love and prayers are w/u and you"re family. Roseanne Smith

woops that blank note was from me! I had a little slip of the finger and accidentally pushed enter!--but anyways hello my darling and i am so sorry to hear of the pain you are in, i am praing everyday that God will relieve you of this burden so you can finally go home! i love you so much and i can"t wait to see your lovely face again! hang in there girl!

Hi Miss Mallory - You are definitely my kind of girl - the first thing I would ask for is a puppy also - I would have 10 if Hal would let me. I have 2 australian shepherds (Trip & Revo). I was so excited when your dad told me your brother had gotten an aussie puppy. My vote for you would also be an aussie, but I am partial. I hope you have a blessed and pain free day today.   Phyllis M.

Hey MAl!!!

I am so glad your numbers are doing well and that alabama won their game :)

We missed you at the transplant conference. It would have been a lot more fun if you had been there. I am glad you can eat some normal food, YAY! that is big!

I am so glad Heather and I had the chance to see you last week. You look great! I am so glad to hear you are being able to take walks and have no IV poles. Praise GOd! those things are soooo annoying... hehe. We will continue to keep you in our prayers and hope to hear that you are on your way home any time now. TTYL!

Love always kelley Shaw

Happy Sunday to you guys!

Just wanted to say HI and let you know we are thinking of you. Hope that pain will go away.

Glad ALABAMA won for you yesterday!

Love you lots,

Robin & Frank

Hi Ladies, we are praying hard for you Mallory, all we want is for the road to become smoother for you and the pain to go away.  Papa, Granny and Nani-Grace have been with us this weekend so you can just imagine what event this has been.  Papa makes us laugh, Granny is getting us fatter and fatter, ok that is just for me and Nani is making us all running around like crazy.  Praying you will have a good Sunday. 

Love, Love, Sharliss & Katherine

Hey Mal! It sounds like you didn"t have the greatest night, but I hope that today will go a lot more smoothly for you. I am so sorry that I didn"t come visit this week! I knew that with your surgery I would have to wait until the end of the week and I ended up having a couple of really large projects due, so that"s why I wasn"t able to stop by. I am sooo sorry! I promise to come see you either tommorrow or Tuesday, as long as things remain well :). I hope that you are feeling better this afternoon! I love you!

Hey Mallory! Sorry to hear that you"re having some pain. Hang in there! Taking baths always helped with my pains. Praying you have minimal to no pains and that you can have a relaxing Sunday.

Good morning and I know it had to be a good night since Alabama beat the Vols.......I prayed a silly prayer before the ballgame...I asked God to let Bama win because I knew it would boost your spirits.......Well God must have not thought my prayer was so silly because Bama won...Guess Tennessee got stuck when "17" came up.....So very glad you are doing better......We love  you and praying that you will continue to get stronger each day!!!!    Miss you all so much!!! 

You go Michael..........So proud of you!!!    Maw Maw and Robert...

Hey Mal!

Glad to hear you are doing better today and that you are able to keep some foods down. yummmm...teriyaki chicken.....

Well, I was closed half-way up on friday. It hurt, as you well know! I was up with pain most of friday night and saturday morning but got up saturday afternoon. I feel a lot better and am basically off the morphine and just using 25 mgs of ultram.

Oh, and I went to bingo on thursday night and won you something. Nothing big but i thought you might like it. I will bring it to you on sunday if you don"t mind a visitor.

Anyways, like i said, i am so glad you are doing better! keep it up!

TTyl , Mal!

Hey Mallory,

Just wanted to let you know that I was at the Wellness Conference today for GTF and I ran into Dr. Heffron.  Kelley and I asked about you and he said that you were doing great....we were so thrilled!!!!  We are both so proud of how far you have come and your dilligence to get there.  That is so cool about your school.  I am so glad that they are such a great support for you.   You must feel so important....of course you know that you are....hehe.  :) 

I cannot wait for you to be able to join Kelley and I at the Liver Walk and the Wellness Conference next year...you will have a blast!!!  Still praying for you!!

Heather  :)

Mallory,

Glad to hear that you are feeling better-And Alabama is up on Tennessee right now, 3:20.  We don"t have to worry about the Bulldogs today, since they aren"t playing.

Hope to hear that you will be going home soon.  Take care of yourself and your mom.

Steve Tibbitts

Hi Mallory

I saw in the latest journal entry that you want to get a dog. I have a story for you. Over seven years ago when I retired, my wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I told her "a kidney". She insisted on a puppy however and went ahead and picked out the cutest cockapoo you ever saw. When she brought it home she said "happy birthday, now you have to name her. So I called her "Kidney" and that is what she has been called ever since  She is the best dog we have ever had and that would be my suggestion for you new puppy if you get one. You might even call her (or him ), "Liv"

Glad to hear you are doing so well. My son Turk and I will be coming to Atlanta on Thursday for the procedure on Friday. Keep getting better and I hope your team wins this weekend.

Scott Foster 

Good morning Mallory. Well I guess good afternoon.

We are so glad you have had a couple of good days!  Before long, you will have more good days than bad days and then ALL good days.  We can"t wait for that!  We just wanted to let you know that we are thinking about you everyday and praying for you everyday.  You will have to let us know when you have your appetite back enough and we will cook something for you.  Even if it is after you get home which we hope is in the very near future.  And you know the rule,  whatever you want us to cook, you will get. 

We hope you have a GOOD day today! 

Greg & Dana Wigley
