I’m Marching for Maddie

04.7.09

And the ache she left behind today.

Heather and Mike Spohr have lost their darling Madeline Alice Spohr.

Please give generously.

And hug your babies.

As there is news it will be posted at Heather’s Blog. http://thespohrsaremultiplying.com

They have asked for donataions in lieu of flowers. Here is the walk Heather had planned on making. If you’re one of us, please give right up to your comfort zone and then add a dollar for good luck. Because in the world of scientific research every dollar counts.

So I’m going to go and finish filling this bucket with tears and think of my friend Heather who had the opportunity to love a child as only a mother can.

Please contact Heater and Mike on twitter.

    Their site is down, so I can’t offer condolences. I will make a donation to the March.

    That is so sad :( The site is down. I first heard about it from you via your Twitter. I host with BlueHost as well so I gave them a call this morning because I’m sure she doesn’t have the time. Just wanted to help and see if I could bully them into putting it back up. I tried but it didn’t work.

    I’m not sure if you are close friends with Heather? But BlueHost said the account is suspended because a script on her site is causing problems. Possibly a table that is not working. Or that the database simply needs to be repaired.

    They advised that she go to the CPanel (the backend) and go to the MYSQL section and click on ‘Repair Database’ and that might fix it.

    Please let me know if I can help in anyway or see if I can fix the problem. :( I would need her password to the BlueHost CPanel. Otherwise hopefully someone techy can help her.
