The Stockings Were Hung:

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
But one special stocking was no longer there
All that was left were the memories bittersweet
Of a life that had ended so incomplete

The family had pictures all gathered around
That sometimes made all of them tear up and frown
For the sorrow and sadness without their sweet child
Made it difficult for the whole family to smile

Although there were times when they felt him(her) so close
As if they were feeling some kind of a ghost
The signs that were sent were so special and clear
That they felt that he(she) truly was so very near

They often would talk to him(her) as if he(she) was there
Sometimes they would smile but also shed tears
For each Christmas that came brought with it such pain
That they felt in their hearts would always remain

Then one special moment on one special day
He(She) came to them and simply took them away
To fly through the heavens and up to the stars
A beautiful place that was not very far

He(She) showed them where they would all join once again
A place full of beauty no sorrow or pain
A place where he(she) is happy with heavenly friends
A place where we too will also ascend

After their amazing visit was through
This family was no longer terribly blue
For they finally realized one day not to far
They would all be together on a heavenly star

Dear Mr. Hallmark,

I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear,
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here,
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card,
A card of love for my parents, as this day for them is hard,
There must be some mistake I thought, every card you can imagine,
except I could not find a card, from a child that lives in heaven,
they are still a parent too, no matter where I reside,
I had to leave, they understand, but oh the tears they cried,
I thought that if I wrote to you, that you would come to know,
that though I live in heaven now, I still love my parents so,
they talk with me, and dreams with me, we still share laughter too,
memories are our way of speaking now, would you see what you can do?
my parents carry me in their heart, their tears they hide from sight,
they plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells,
they writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease there pain as well,
so you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth,
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth,
they need to be honored, and be remembered too,
just as the children of the earth will do,
thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you will do your best,
find a way to tell them, how much they mean to me,
until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.


I know Christmas must be so hard for you although I can't comprehend how difficult it must be.

All my love,

Viks

I was posting this picture on Cassie's site, and thought I would swing by your page to say "hello", was also reading your guestbook, what alovely message beneath mine, i agree that your daughter was a very beautiful girl :)

I too came from Max's site. I can envision Delaney welcoming Max onto a big, beautiful playground, introducing him to the other kids like a big sister would.

This is the first time I've been to your site and I read your entire journal. Your strength is impressive and I know that made Delaney's journey less frightening and eased her transition.

We count our blessings every day and know that we have been so very fortunate. We begrudgingly remind ourselves that we are not out of the water yet. I hope that with whatever power Delaney and Max may have in their new lives, they will look out and lend strength to other little kids like my Morgan.

You are coming upon the 2nd anniversary. I know from experience that these times are vivid and difficult. I hope you can take solice in the idea that Delaney paved the way for new treatments and may even be lending herself to others fights on a non-corporeal plane.

I wish you peace.

Hi Amy,

I just came from Max's site and saw your posting. I haven't been to Delaney's site in a few weeks and wanted to stop by and let you know that Delaney isn't forgotten. I hope that you are doing well and are healing from your pain.

Take Care & Stay Strong,

Amy,

May the joy of this season permeate our hearts, renew our spirits and allow us to recognize the good that is possible in each day and in each person. May we be willing to communicate with listening ears and open hearts - embracing our similiarities and celebrating our differences. May you find bright spots of joy in each.

Thinking of your family over the holidays and wishing you the best for 2004.

For Delaney and Mommy:

I stood by your bed last night,
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying,
you found it hard to sleep.


I sang to you softly
as you brushed away a tear.
"It's me, I haven't left you,
I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."


I was close to you at breakfast
I watched you pour the tea.
You were thinking of the many times
your hands reached down to me.


I was with you at my grave today,
you tend it with such care.
I want to reassure you,
that I'm not lying there.


I walked with you towards the house,
as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my hands on you,
I smiled and said, "It's me."


You looked so very tired,
and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know,
that I was standing there.


It's possible for me to be
so near you every day.
To say to you with certainty,
"I never went away."


You sat there very quietly,
then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening,
I was very close to you.


The day is over...
I smile and watch you yawning.
and say, " Goodnight, God Bless,
I'll see you in the morning."


And when the time is right
for you to cross the brief divide.
I'll rush across to greet you
and we'll stand side-by-side.


I have so many things to show you,
there's so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me

I found Delaney's site from your entry in the Trimper's guestbook. I cannot imagine the pain of losing your beautiful child but do know the pain of watching them suffer and fight leukemia. My 5 year old son had AML M4 and has gone through treatment, relapsed and gone through a cord blood transplant. God bless you and I pray for your peace and comfort through the holidays.

I came here from Katia´s site. I read all the journal and even knowing how the story ended, it was hard to accept the disease coming back after some many different medical attempts plus Delaney´s courageous attitude and all the LOVE and support she received from you. It is unbelievable how life can change so fast from one day to another. I cannot imagine how much you suffered with her during the treatment and how brave you are to manage to survive the loss of her. I am sure you are all proud of each other. You are great persons and have an incredible faith and are doing the right thing. Being positive ! Comemorating the years and the gifts she gave you. She is a beautiful angel. Heaven became a better place upon her arrival. One day you will meet again and it will be a glorious day. I am honored to know a little of Delaney´s & family story.
Hugs from Brazil. Merry Christmas in Heaven and on Earth.

We lost our beautiful angel Meghan (age 6) 8 yrs ago. It seems like just the other day she left. Christmas is especially hard as her last Christmas was so filled with suffering. I think our angels are together dancing and having a wonderful time waiting until we are together again. There is a purpose to this it is that we do not yet know it.

Delaney,

We love you and miss you here in our home. We know you are in our hearts ... Daddy says, "Thanks for the bunny." He knows you sent it to him. For everyone that doesn't know, Delaney's Dad 'found' a 'free' domestic bunny in our backyard. We put up signs and went door to door, but no one had ever seen the bunny. The bunny is gentle and loves children. Bob got the bunny a new deluxe cage, a 'play pen' for animals so the bunny can lay in the grass and run around, and he feeds and takes care of it. He knows that Delaney sent it to him.

Touch Of An Angel



I felt an angel's touch today,
in the midst of my despair.
Twas sent by God, Himself, to say,
"be still and know I'm there."

To lead through days of darkness,
and light your way with love.
Be still and know, deep in your heart,
I'm reigning from above.

I'll lift you when you stumble,
I'm with you all the time.
I understand and share your pain;
remember child of mine,

The end is coming quickly;
the Lord shall soon appear.
To resurrect the righteous ones,
I love and hold so dear.

And bring them home, into a place,
where broken hearts are healed.
And promises I made to you,
will finally be fulfilled.

This life is but a spot in time,
a place for lessons learned.
Heaven holds the key to all,
your broken spirit yearns.

I sent an angel down today,
to show my words are true.
You're never far, beyond the arms,
of all God's love for you.

All material copyright @Judy Van Meter

You are in my heart and prayers. If you ever need someone to talk to or lean on, please email me. May God draw near and give you strength and hope and allow you to feel the touch of your angel.
Love and hugs

Reading your journal entries (past and present) really touched me. There was one line you said especially that I need to memorize because it's so true. Basically loving as much as you grieve, or loving more than you grieve. THis is why I need to memorize it! When I read it I had a light bulb moment!

Amy I know I havent been by in a while, been keeping busy but thats no excuse. Theres just been so much bads news on Cb I had to take a breather, you know? It just seems never ending. I'm trying to figure out are more kids actually getting and succumbing to cancer than ever before, or am I just so much more aware of it now that I am in "the loop"? I guess its both.... but at any rate I am thinking of you

I am so touched by Delaney's story. My 3 year old daughter, Morgan, was diagnosed with AML in December of 2002, went into remission in January, and completed treatment at the end of April.

Aunt Carol, Uncle Mike, Marissa & Caitlin went and saw a live performance of CATS last night. None of us had seen it before. We all saw Victoria kitty and thought of you. At intermission, there was a young girl about 7 with long blond hair that was in the row in front of us. She was wearing a white kitty outfit and a kitty mask. The girls and I all looked at each other. We could picture you in that little girl, and we knew it was a sign that you were with us. We are sending our love to you. MEOW!

Hi Delaney,
It's been a long time since we've signed your guestbook. We saw your mom at Celebration of Champions. She was so strong. We all miss you so much! Coral and Kylie are at Camp Reach for the Sky this week. Coral really misses you! Today is her brother Braden's 3rd birthday and Coral said she wants to give you a balloon. Look for it on Saturday morning when we have the party. You're in our thoughts always. Love, Cynthia, Coral, Kylie & Braden

I read a verse today and thought of you.

"If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again."

I don't know who wrote this, but it is beautiful and "so true."

Dear Delaney,
I'm sorry I am late in wishing you a "heavenly birthday", I'm sure your celebration was AWESOME. That is so cool that you sent your family a message with the "cat sighting". It had to make them so happy. I know that they miss you a ton, but someday you will all be together again in God's heavenly home. When that day comes, I will also get a chance to meet you face to face. Until then Delaney, keep sending your family your signs to let them know you are there. God's blessings on you all. With big hugs and love,

Yesterday was your birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL! I just want to say THANK YOU because I did my personal best at in the spring play and it was all because of you! You brought the drama queen out of me and showed me how to shine! Because of you I know that I shouldnt take life foregranted and live every moment to the fullest! Because of you I had the courage to take a risk and get out on stage in front of 200 people for the play! On wednesday, I got many signs from you...the weather was great, I saw roses everywhere and that night I got a full night of sleep and dreamt of you dancing in heaven! (and a full night sleep is rare for me, believe me) Save a place for my gramps for me! I love you with all my heart sweety! I miss you gorgeous! All my Love, Caitlin
PS: I found a song that reminded me so much of you...and coincidentally its called Seven Years because its your 7th birthday!
"Seven Years" --Norah Jones
Spinning, laughing, dancing to
her favorite song
A little girl with nothing wrong
Is all alone

Eyes wide open
Always hoping for the sun
And she'll sing her song to anyone
that comes along

Fragile as a leaf in autumn
Just fallin' to the ground
Without a sound

Crooked little smile on her face
Tells a tale of grace
That's all her own

Spinning, laughing, dancing to
her favorite song
A little girl with nothing wrong
And she's all alone

I know Delaney is smiling down on your good deed, proud that your love can go to other children as well. I can not believe the unfairness of a child not being here for her 7th birthday, but I guess its just not for us to understand. God bless you guys, I know Delaney is pain free and in peace.

Hi. Just wanted to sign your guestbook. I'm a new parent to DaybyDay, and have been looking at all of the other sites parents have dedicated to their children, and am trying to sign all of the guestbooks. My daughter, Julia, passed away on 8/4/02 from osteosarcoma (bone cancer). She was 10. I just want to make a point of signing everyone's guestbook to let them know I'm thinking about their child, as well as mine. I hate this disease and don't understand why it needs to afflict anyone, let alone a beautiful, innocent, sweet, perfect child. Take care.

Hello I found your sight by visiting the Day By Day group. I found great comfort in visiting Delaney's sight. As I read your journal enteries I felt as though it was my life for the past three years.. we just lost our dear son Matthew on 3/25/03 he was dx 9/9/99...we lost him due to a fungal infection following two BM transplants. He had ALL but much of the chemo and regimine that you described is what he went through as well. We have a ten year old son Michael who keeps us going and happy. Meanwhile, no doubt both of our children are angels....take care nadia nadiamh12804@yahoo.com

The memory of Delaney will live in my heart forever. It meant so much to me that we had found each other. It was across the country and our children fighting the same disease with the same treatment. I was so heart broken at her losing the battle.

I stop and think now about what she is seeing now. We can only imagine. I love that song out about only imagining what Heaven is going to be like. I can almost hear the children laughing and singing.

I don't know if you keep up with the POG Study that Delaney and Holly was on. There were 35 children that started the study. There were 4 that had sibling matches and only 12 that had the Melphalan. That is only 16 out of 35. The final words on the abstract is: this treatment stategy is promising. I don't feel this treatment is promising at all. I'm very interested in reading the abstract after the 5 years about the survivors.

Remember Delaney today and everyday!

I just came here from Alexandrias' site; she is a friend of ours. My little girl was dx w/ALL on 11/02/00, 5 days before Alexandria's dx w/Phil+ ALL.

It is very painful to watch so many families go through the agony of treatment only to lose a child to the horrific reality called cancer. It is a wicked brutal beast.

Delaney was a very precious looking little girl. I bet she had her daddy wrapped around her finger. The reality off all of this is so painful; there are not adequate words to express the feelings.

May God's peace surround you and His blessings be upon you,

My Child

You’ll Always Be My Special Valentine


You’ll always be love cradled in my heart and memories to cherish through the years….
You’ll always be a sunbeam; smiles for the soul and hugs reaching up to outstretched arms.
You’ll always be dreams gently growing into flowers in a garden of special secrets to share.
You’ll always be footsteps racing on through time beneath the moon of yesterday.
You’ll always be kisses blowing in the wind on a playground stretched out from sky to sky.
You’ll always be the gift God has given me.
You’ll always be my joy, my happiness, and my song.
You’ll always be the child I love.

They truly are the window to the soul and she was beautiful from within too. We are trying to raise awareness and bring more love, prayers and support to more kids' sites, so you will be getting messages here from someone who "Adopted" your site and wants to keep Delaney's memory alive and support you a little.

Dear Angel Delaney,
I was dreading the 7th of January because I was flashing back in my mind to that very morning that changed my life and I thought this day would always be filled with bad luck. I pushed the tears back and tried to forget about it all. However, I walked out of the Phys Ed Locker rooms, laughing and talking with my friends and I noticed a bright shiny new penny, heads up, right in my path. I immediately stopped and thought of you. I picked it up and stuck it in my pocket. Everytime I felt sad or angry at the fact that God requested you to be one of his beautiful angels, I would squeeze it tight and remember this is a day to celebrate your life full of loving friends and family. That was the day you were relieved of the pain and confusion of the world and lifted up to live among the clouds. Thank you Delaney for being there to remind me that you are watching over all of your loved ones...I almost forgot there for a minute, getting caught up in my crazy teenage life. That penny is now in my shoe...because it will always remind me that you are with me every step I take. I love you.

Dear Delaney,

Yesterday, Miranda and I went to visit you after she went to Brownies. Because we did that, we drove home much later than we usually do on a school day, and just happened to see one of Miranda's first grade classmates walking on a busy street at 5:00 p.m., all alone. We turned around and stopped to pick him up. He told us he was walking home and was already a mile from school. When we took him home, the police were there, as well as his distraught mother. He had been reported missing, as no one knew where he was! But I know that you knew all along where he was, as you were walking with him, guiding him to us.

My sweet Angel, even in heaven, you watch over us. God bless you!


Love, Aunt Marty < >

Hello Delaney. Thank you for creating a beautiful day! It was foggy, windy and cold this morning but as I opened the door at work it was warm and the sun was shining bright. I know you were with me today (like everyother day) because the signs were there. Just when the day is going awful you show me what to be thankful for. "If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again." Thank you for being a part of my life. Even though it's been a year since you left this crazy world, you have not been forgotten. You continue to fill our hearts with love <3

Dear Wright Family-
I saw your website today on Gooch's site. Strange that I would come here on this one year anniversary of the loss of your beautiful Delaney. My nine year old daughter, Alexandria, just finished a round of Clofarex. She was diagnosed 11/00 with high risk ALL, relapsed 7/02, sibling -match BMT 10/02, relapse 12/02. Thinks do not look so good but I am trying to keep up hope and faith. The Clofarex is working on the blood, not sure about the bone marrow yet. I just want you to know that although I cannot fully appreciate the pain you all have endured in the last year, I do know how awful this disease is for our children. It breaks my heart that they must endure so much in their few short years of life. I will be praying for your family. Alexandria's website is

I wish for you...
Comfort on difficult days,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm your heart
Gentle hugs when spirits sag,
Friendships to brighten your being,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Faith so that you can believe,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
And love to complete your life.
God Bless you!
I asked the Lord to bless you
To guide you and protect you
As you go along your way....
His love is always with you
His promises are true
No matter what the tribulation
You know He will see us through
So when the road you're traveling on
Seems difficult at best
Give your problems to the Lord
And God will do the rest.

Wright family,
I know today will be very hard on you as well as all those who loved Delaney. I hope you look back on the past year and see how far you've come together as a family. I think back and can't believe it's been a year. I can still picture little Delaney pretending to be Victoria wearing pink and purple watching Power Puff Girls with all of her cats, dolls and tattoos on her bed. Tonight, Coral and I will light a candle in Delaney's memory. My friends and family will pray for your family and Angel Delaney. I feel honored to have known such a wonderful person. I love and miss you all dearly.
Sincerely,
Cindy Bingham

Amy, Bob, Kevin, and Angel Delaney.
One year has passed. It is so hard to believe she has been gone a year. It seems only yesterday we saw her laughing and smiling. I guess that proves she is in our hearts forever. That laugh, that smile, that look has made a life long impression in our sole. Some how a year ago, I didn't think any of us could have gone on, but yet, we received strength from Delaney. I know that I have grown as a person this year. I look at children, at illness, at life very differently. Her death was not for nothing. She made us all better human beings. She brought closeness to our families. We've now shared births and death and everything in between.

Yesterday, Mike and I were planting a new rose bush in our Angel Delaney garden. Mike found a beautiful marble in the soil right next to the fairy bench. We had dug in that same soil other times and never found a marble before. We both knew Delaney was watching and approving of the new Veteran's Honor Rose.

Time has moved forward, and so must we. We honor Delaney and are blessed by being touched by her.

Our thoughts and prayers are with each and everyone who was touched by Angel Delaney.

Dear Family of Delaney,
Delaney died on January 7th, one year ago. One year you had to start living again without your precious Delaney. It must have been a hard year and you must miss her a lot. I had a look at her pictures and was touched by them. She was such a pretty girl. She fought her cancer so bravely; it is so hard that she lost the fight.

I send you all my love and hope you will find some peace in the new year that is ahead of you.

Love, Marianne, Rashid's mom

I can't believe it's almost the new year! We miss you all very much and hope to see you in the coming year. Coral has been atttending Kindergarden this year and has found a best friend. Moving on to a new best friend was very difficult for her as well as myself. Her name is Delaney. This little girl has no idea how another girl of that same name has touched our lives and the symbolism that we see in their friendships. Angel Delaney is greatly missed and is still brought up in conversations almost daily. I hope the new year will bring happiness to your family.

I think your Delaney in Heaven is here with us tonight, Amy - I truly do! Just as I was reading your posting tonight, the sink started running water here in the hospital room. It hasn't done that on it's own since we've been here and I was startled and then amazed that it happened JUST AS I WAS READING YOUR GUESTBOOK ENTRY!

Thank you so much for you kind thoughts and words - I really enjoy reading your website when you talk of Delaney and the time she was yours to care for here on earth - I believe God has big plans for her up in heaven... she's working a bit of magic here with us now! God Bless!

Dear Angel Delaney. We met your mom, dad, and big brother Kevin for our bi-annual trek to Disneyland. We felt your presence every step of the way. We talked of good times that we shared with you. We certainly got a sign you were with us, when a mother asked us if Caitlin would ride a ride with her daughter because she and the father had to take the 2 little brothers on the ride (the car only held 4 people). When Caitlin boarded the ride, I asked the mom what the little girl's name was, and it was Delaney. She was 4 years old. She had brown hair, yet her eyes were blue. She wore a pink shirt with the 3 Disney princesses on it. She talked to Caitlin as if they were best friends. We knew it was a sign from you. Happy Thanksgiving, little princess. Love, Aunt Carol

What a wonderful blessing Delaney was to have blessed your life, she is a lovely child and I am most sure a lovely little angel. God watches over his little angels with special care.We lost a child to miscarriage in no way the same but we know how precious children are, Your daughter must have really liked her kittie's. Next time I have a orphan baby kitten for rescue I will name one after your daughter. I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet little girl, but know she watches over all of you every moment of every day, God bless all of you,

I wanted to share this song with you.

Good-Bye
by Sondra Burnett

Into His hands I send you now;
If I could keep you with me I would some how;
But you have been chosen to be by His side;
The angels have come to take you for a ride.

Up above the clouds where Heaven is waiting;
Jesus has His arms opened wide;
So good-bye for now my sweet lullaby.

Letting you go isn't easy to do;
We hope you know how much we love you;
The time is come to tell you good-bye;
We'll see you again someday in the sky.

Up about the clouds where Heaven is waiting;
Jesus has His arms opened wide;
So good-bye for now my sweet lullaby.

So good-bye for now my sweet lullaby.




Always in my thoughts and prayers

Hi Angel Delaney,
Just thought Id give an update: As my mom said, I volunteered at the Light the Night Walk a couple weeks ago. I was feeling icky that day but when I started helping out, I could feel you lifting my spirits to keep me going...Thank you :). I also started high school a couple weeks ago...its been rough but getting through the day is a lot easier when I remind myself that you are up there playing with kitties and dancing. It helps me get that occasional giggle out. I also am attending the Leukimia and Lymphoma society board. Yesterday, they had an older boy come for the "Mission Moment." He talked about what he is experiening in his fight against cancer (AML). I know you are up there giving every child that suffers from this disease a boost. Later in the month I will also be writing an essay on you and your experience and i might have a chance to win a scholarship...wish me luck :). I love you so much and really miss you! Keep playing with my kitty!

All my love, Caitlin <rockchick11@attbi.com>

Dear Wright Family,
The Light the Night Walk was highly successful. There were hundreds of people. We were at the beginning of the walk going around the park. When we got to the end of the park, we could look behind us and across the park and see a trail of lit balloons. It was awesome!!! Our team raised over $800, and the entire walk reached its goal of over $100,000. It was just amazing. I did get a sign from you, Delaney. I saw a little blond girl about your age with hair just beginning to grow back, and she was carring a white (survivor) balloon. I looked at her and immediately knew, you were with me, with all of us, all the way.

Hi Angel Delaney. Aunt Carol, Uncle Mike, and Marissa will be walking the Light the Night walk for the Leukemia Society on Friday. We raised some money from some very generous friends and family. We will carry lighted balloons in your honor. Caitlin is now on the Jr. Board for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Sacramento. She will be volunteering the afternoon and evening of the walk. Since we are a team, we get to carry a banner that Caitlin decorated with your pictures and stars and hearts. It is really cool. It will be dark when we walk, but look down and see all the lit balloons tomorrow night and show us a sign that you are watching.

Thank you for leading me to your beautiful site!! Your daughter is SO very beautiful and I'm sure she is so very proud of you for your loving tribute. I'm also glad to know someone else believes in the 'pennies from Heaven'. When I'm down...I always seem to find a penny from my beloved angel telling me to 'cheer up Gram'. I hope we get to know each other much better during our 'swaps'. I'll be back to visit your angel. Hugs, Cuppy(Melissa's devoted Gram)

What a beautiful site you have for your daughter. I am in your new group and would like to send you a HUG today. I look forward to getting to know you better. I have a niece up in heaven with Delaney. She was 12 when we found out she had non-hodgkins lymphoma. She was recovering from a bone marrow transplant and getting ready to go home when an infection took her away from us. She has a star on page 4 of heavenly lights - Megan Leigh Newstrom.

Dearest Family,
Just wanted to drop a quick note to let you know I still come here each and every day and stop to say a prayer for your family. I still love to look at the pictures of beautiful Delaney and smile each time I do. I know she is one of the most beautiful angels flying around the heavens. I have no doubt she is leaving you signs that she is just fine. I also have no doubt God has put her and her sweet disposition to very good use!! Kevin, my son, Robbie, also 10 years old, went to his first pro tennis match this past Monday in Indianapolis. He wasn't too thrilled about having to get up at 4:30 AM, but thoroughly enjoyed his day and getting to see the pros play. He also was lucky enough to get some autographs. The day he was there the "biggest names" weren't there, but it didn't matter to him, he loved every minute of it. Being a former tennis player all through high school, I can also remember back when I was a kid (years ago) going to watch Chrissy Evert play. Boy was that a thrill for me!! You may not even know who she is, but when I was a kid she was the biggest!! I always dreamt of being able to be a ball girl. You sure would be lucky to be able to do that!! Please stay strong and let God and Delaney guide you through each day. . . one at a time. Good luck at school this year Kevin. My kids start next week!! God's blessings on you all and I'll be back to check in again soon. With big hugs and love,

I just felt a need to visit Delaney's site tonight and let you know that we continue to think about all of you and pray for your continued strength in the days and months ahead. The scholarship you created in her honor and memory is very special. Also, I'm glad you were able to go to Santa Barbara for your annual visit, and that it brought you more memories of beautiful Delaney. The painting you found, Amy, sounds perfect for many reasons. Love is being sent to all of you, from Seattle. Also... Kevin, keep up the tennis! We hope to see you play someday!

Hi! Simple words can't express the flood of emotions that came over me as I read your Journal. With my own six year old Delaney fighting her own battle with cancer, I felt a closeness I can't explain as I read...and read...and read. People have asked me over the hears how I EVER came up with such a unique name for my daughter, and I simply reply, "God let's parents name the REALLY SPECIAL daughters Delaney". Amy, clearly, you know what I mean!!! :-) Thank you for sharing her story of strength, hope, and courage with us. Angel Delaney Wilson, keep talking to statues, dancing around the pool, chasing those cats, and please keep a watchful eye over the rest of us.

My name is Renée La Forest and my daughter and I, also Delaney, were looking for her website here at Children's Hospital. I found your Delaney first. After I tucked my little parakeet into bed, I snuck back here to read about yours... you have no idea how my heart goes out to you!

You handled her illness with grace and fed on the strength she showed until the end. I pray that the knowledge that God has brought her to be with him, at that she is no longer in pain will allow you to remember the happiness, and the closeness you shared before she became your Angel Delaney.

Every day I have with my daughter, born a short three weeks before yours, I thank God for! I have no idea whether she will survive this illness (Ewing's Sarcoma) or not... but I have faith, and I pray, and I want you to know I will hug her just a bit tighter tomorrow, and every day thereafter - for you - God Bless you and yours - you are a strong family, and I pray you will continue to be!

If you care to read about our little one, she is at www.caringbridge.org/oh/teamdelaney.

Hello Delaney,
I miss you and your family so much. It was hardest during the forth of July. As I watched the HUGE fireworks above me on lake tahoe, I thought how beautiful they were but then again they were nothing compared to your smile!:) There was one firework that was bright purple with glittery sparkles that stayed in the sky until they fell into the lake. I knew right away that that one was made and sent by you. Thank you. I also bought a small powerpuff girls pot and my mom helped me put a pretty plant in it. You have been such an inspiration to me and my writing. Not only are you my angel, you are my muse. You have showed me courage and faith to help me put my feet on the floor and get out of bed each and every morning. Take care of my kitty up there. *Make sure to put LOTS of bows on him, wink wink ;)* I love you beyond my heart.
Love,
Caitlin

Christine and I went to the Art Fair on Sunday (local Santa Barbara artists display/sell their work along the boardwalk.) I was looking for a 'Paris' street scene painting. And I found it from my favorite SB artist. (Her name is Sue Slater and she is the artist that painted the pictures to be hung in the dining area.) She did her first Paris street scene and it is great. Part of the scene includes items in a window of one of the Paris shops: a wonderful, pink hat - Delaney's hat. Both Christine and I knew right away it was your hat, Delaney, and I had to have the painting. (Yes, I am crying while I write this...)

Hi Angel Delaney (aka Diva)!

Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that the playroom at Children's Hospital is not the same without you and I think about you often! You and your magnificently positive energy are sorely missed! I also want to thank you for your positive spirit that I feel accompanying me as I try to help other children there to possess even just a sliver of the strength that you so gallantly radiated!

Kevin, I wanted to commend you on not only your admirable dedication to tennis, but also, on your wonderfully written and very thoughtful update today. Delaney, along with your parents, must be very proud!

We blew kisses to you on Kevin's Birthday and the 4th. We miss you so much, each and every day. Kevin J. and Stefanie miss you, too.

Life is not the same without you in it. We know you are loving us from heaven.

Hi Delaney - I came to visit you yesterday afternoon. Kevin and I played tennis inthe morning. Knock Around Club starts today and I wish you were attending, you would have so much fun! Remember how you decorated your IV pole and had a parade at the hospital last year? Mom is going to place some 4tth of July pinwheels at your site so you can celebrate again.

I will miss you always, Dad

Dear Family of Delaney,

I was told about the Heavenly Lights Website and was particulary interested in the site for your daughter, Delaney. Our son, Steve, also passed away from AML on April 27, 2002, and we will be adding a star in his memory soon. Steve was 15 years old. His story is so close to Delaney's except that he didn't have a stem cell transplant. His sister was not a match, and his doctor's recommended that he go through three rounds of chemo instead. He was in remission from August through February but relapsed. Like Delaney, Steve also receive Mylotarg. It initially worked, but only for a few days. He then received more chemo to get ready for a cord blood transplant. Unfortunately, on the last biopsy before the transplant, Steve relapsed again. We lost him to pneumonia (with leukemia in his lungs) just a few days later.

Our hearts go out to your family as we know what a rough, painful journey fighting AML can be. Your daughter is so beautiful! You must miss her so much.

Dear Kevin;

You are headed for great things, I can just tell. Tennis and roller coasters, huh??? Tennis Pro/Engineering degree!!
Love it!!! Really though, getting though elementary school is a really good goal too!!! I'm sure your parents and Guardian Angel are so proud of you. You have lots of wind beneath your wings. It's tough to be a kid, and it sounds like you've been doing some special things and having some fun along the way. Thank you for your update. We care alot. Dianne Roth

Hi Wright family,
Just checking in. It is amazing to me how we as parents have so much on us at times, but God is so good. He helps us through these rough times and gives us others to lean on too. I really enjoy reading your updates, even tho I did not know Delaney, I felt as if I did by writing to you when she was in the hospital. It helps me get through the days to know that others are experiencing the same kind of pain and also joy from the other kids. That Kevin sounds like a great kid. God Bless you all...gina

Kevin (and Mom too!)
Thanks for the update. I continue to check in each day to see if perhaps there is an update and also just to look at Delaney's photos and say a prayer. Even though I have never met any of you, I was still very inspired by Delaney through her journal and continue to think of her! Kevin, I'm so glad you are enjoying your tennis. I was a tennis player all through high school (I hate to admit that this year is my 20th reunion of my graduation!) Tennis is a sport you can continue to play even at my old age!! Last year for fun, I entered our city tennis tournament after not picking up a racket for about 18 years!! It was really run, but kind of frustrating too when I would try and do a drop shot or overhead and nothing was working the way it used to!!! I did succeed in aceing my opponent 4 times though, so that was my highlight!! I can't imagine going on all the rollercoasters with you though. I would be like your dad, sitting with the cameras!! My daughter, Rachel is 12 and she is playing on the girl's fastpitch traveling team this year and also playing tennis. My son, Robbie is 9 also, and he is a pitcher on his baseball team and has started playing tennis this year too! Keep up the good work, but don't run your Mom and Dad too hard. God's blessings on all of you!

Miss ya, love ya, and think of you always. Love, Aunt Carol, Uncle Mike, Marissa, and Caitlin.

P.S. Been playing with Scraps!!!

I am so sorry about the loss of your beautiful daughter, from reading your journal I can tell she was alot like my own little girl Kayleigh who just lost her battle to AML-M4, always full of spirit and life. I know that they are both playing together now, with no pain and no suffering. Please take care, I am only an email away.

We saw your family and gave each other big hugs. We miss you all very much. Coral said that she knows that you were there with us during the celebration and the baseball game. I hope you played with the balloon that your family let go for you. You will forever be in our hearts and always be a champion! All our love, Cynthia, Coral, Kylie and Braden Avery

I just loved to come and look at your smile, what a beautiful little girl. Now a beautiful angel, they say that God only takes the best. . . I don't understand why, but someday when my turn comes, I need to ask him all about this plan of His. Until then I have to believe. . . Delaney, continue to watch over your family and give them the comfort that only you can give. God bless your entire family. Soar each day Delaney . . . until later

Amy,

I clicked onto the website today, thinking of Delaney. I chair blood drives a few times a year and often,in my own heart, dedicate the drive to someone who has needed blood transfusions or had a blood-related cancer. Next week's will be Delaney's--again--because I am thinking about you on Mother's Day and her in heaven...I copied the poem on the site and will send it to my sister who has also lost a child. I wrote you before because I somehow feel connected to Delaney, with her having been transplanted on my birthday and becoming an angel on the anniversary of my diagnosis of an acute leukemia. I am remembering her and wanted you to know that even though I never met her or you. I just know she was an incredible girl and that her brother Kevin is an incredible boy!

That poem is really beautiful and I'm sure that is how Delaney is feeling looking down on us all. As we are here on earth in pain and sorrow, she is frolicking up in Heaven. That is sort of comforting, yet still so sad. I continue to check on you guys and think about you often.

Dear Delaney. Last year I was with you when you turned 5. It is hard to believe what has happened in such a short time. We are keeping in touch with your mom and dad and brother, Kevin. They are doing well and staying strong. Your brother said at your "celebration of life" that he wanted to go to Magic Mountain. We thought the weekend after your birthday would be a great time. We will continue to pray for them, and we feel your love always. Happy Birthday, Miss D.

Happy Birthday Delaney. You are one year older today.
We will celebrate your birthday, even tho you've passed away.

If I could give you anything, I'd give you anything you'd wish. I'd made you a necklace of daisys or blow you a simple kiss.

I'd color the clouds pink, throw a "happy birthday" banner in the sky. Sew a beautiful magic carpet so together we could fly.

I'd capture a million butterflies for you, or give you a single white dove. I'd catch a falling star, from the midnight sky above.

I'd give you beautiful dresses so you could dance around and play. I'd give you your own kitty, and make it spring everyday.

I'd give you anything you'd wish, because I love you so much Miss D. But the one thing I'd want to give you, is your presence here with me.

Happy Birthday, Delaney. I love you.

Hi Delaney, tomorrow is your birthday and I just wanted to remind you to make a wish before you blow out your candles :) I have been working on a poem for you but it isn't finished. Here's what I have so far..it still needs a little work though.
~
Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday darling, you are not a year older, for you will never grow old.

Happy Birthday Blossom, for you are strong and brave. You had the power to change people's lives and give them faith.

Happy Birthday kitty, or Victoria as you called yourself. Even on bad days your strength and curiousity continued to show. I thought cats only have 9 lives, you lived a life of a thousand.

Happy Birthday "Miss D' for your attitude was unique and special in every way possible!

Happy Birthday angel, for your smile touched everyone who met you.

Happy Birthday Delaney for you are my hero and always will be!!

Well Delaney tell your brother I will see him this weekend and we will ride the BIG rides (but i think he will have to hold my hand, i get a little scared) Love, Marissa

A Special Birthday

Please God, make them rember that
Today is a special birthday.
Make them understand that
The memories don't go away.

Bless them with ears to hear
And hearts that care.
Enable them to listen while I share
Shelter them that they may
never now my pain.

Help them to help me know
That my child's life was not in vain
Help them to remember Lord
That I wish that my child was here,
So we could celebrate

Help them to understand that I still feel
The nearness of my child
Help them to see beyond my smile
and the words,
"I'm OKAY".

Please God, just let one remember today
IS A SPECIAL BIRTHDAY

I am so sorry I'll never have the chance to meet Delaney face to face like our cycling coordinator Christina did. We'll be thinking of Delaney as we do our hundred miles around Lake Tahoe on June 2d, secure in the thought that she too is in a beautiful place helping us in our efforts to help others. Bless all of you.

Happy Easter my sweet Delaney! I remember so vividly the Easters we have shared together. We would re-hide the Easter eggs all morning long, while you and Kevin would have fun finding them each time. I also remember you wearing your pink bunny ears for days before Easter. You would wear them in school or while we were out and about. Your princess style together with the whimsical bunny ears would bring a smile to everyone you saw. You had a special way of sharing your life with those around you. Love forever,

We lost a very special friend of my son's when they were both 7 (he's now 17) and we never have forgotten what we went through with him. So many campaigns to raise money for bone marrow and pounding the streets - etc. It's just not fair - we still put flowers on his grave every year!

Amy,
I am very sorry for the loss of you daughter Delaney. She is absolutely beautiful. I have spent some time reading through your journal and your guestbook. There are no words to describe the sadness in a mothers heart when we lose our children. It amazes me how many children have lost their courageous battles to this dreadful disease. Hopefully during our lifetime a cure will be discovered.
I don't know how I have managed to get through the days without my daughter.....she was my entire life. We are coming up on 8 months this week. I don't know how I have made it through the days.....

I send my condolences to you and your family.....and many hugs your way....I will keep your family in my prayers....

I hope our children are together in Heaven.....Briana loved to be "mother hen" to children younger then herself.

Hi;

I'm thinking of you all. I'll bet your work friends are glad you're back. Aren't work friends great? They know where you've been and try to put a smile on your face one day at a time. We love tennis, too. Tricia 14, years took lessons last summer. You and your family are in our prayers. Dianne Roth www.caringbridge.com/mo/jackiesjourney

Dear Bob and Amy,

I had not one inkling that you were going through this "journey" with Delaney. It saddens me deeply to learn Delaney is no longer "on earth" with you and your family.

You and your family hold a special place, in my real estate experience, as clients remembered with great fondness and appreciation. 'A model family.'

As to Delaney, specifically, I remember her as being so beautiful, delightful and full of energy and wonder.

Creating the website and sharing day by day developments in all that you went through, was so helpful to those who cared...and your photos. It does not seem possible that you could have done anything more than what you did....

How difficult...I don't know many parents who would have attempted to share what you and Delaney were experiencing in such a communicative way. Bravo and kudos!

Words cannot adequately express the shock...

I would, very much, want to stop by for a brief visit to say hello. Thank you for creating the Delaney Fund. What a tribute! I would certainly wish to contribute.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time and for Delaney, your sweet Angel.

We are thinking of you and miss you very much! Macy and I were looking through some old pictures for a Kindergarten project and we came across a picture of you at the park for Macy's third birthday! It is a great one! We set it aside to include it with the other photos of you and your Mom we are using for your memory book. Macy thinks of you often and sends you special hugs and kisses!

Dear Amy -
Maximilian is 17, not five, but he still has a liking for stuffed animals (new-age kind of guy). And he has a Siam cat exactly like the one Delaney has in the photo - although he calls his Zafir. So, although of course I didn't know her, I often think of Delaney when I see Zafir!
I had read most of your journal, and entries from September on the BMT list, and because you expressed yourself so well and shared so much with us, somehow I have picked up a little of Delaney's spirit. My daughter Montserrat, who is 12, also knew about Delaney and still thinks of her. She would undoubtedly have been a beautiful, powerful woman had that terrible disease not taken her over.
Thank you for the poem, too - it tells people what they should do to help those who are grieving so much.
Sending my love to you, Bob and Kevin,

Dear Amy,

I have looked at your website so much. I am so taken by Delaney's pictures. She IS absolutely adorable. I will never understand why this has happened to our children.

The more time that passes (16 months for me) the more it hurts. I can't stand that I have not been a "mom" for that long. I know I will always be a mom, but I am not doing any mommy "things" now. Georgiana was my only little girl. I miss her!

Take care..

I try to be strong and tell them all the right things. It is hard--so very hard. Especially, since I share their tears. We think of you everyday. I hope you are with Grandma Betty and the others who went to Heaven before you. God be with you and all those who love you.

We talked about you, our last visit with you, and how much we all missed you. We still can't understand while your life with us was so short, but we are blessed to have spent it with you. Your big brother skied and snow boarded. He did great!!! You would have been proud of him. Your dad, Mike, Kevin, and Caitlin went skiing/boarding for two days. Your mom and I shopped for 2 days. We all did what we do best!!! We think of you always. We send our love, we hope you feel it, because we sure feel yours.

They, along with your big brother are coming to visit us on Thurday. I know that they need some time away from San Diego and all that they have been through. So glad they will spend that time with us. They are struggling, but staying strong -- something they learned from you.

Madrid, 16 Febrero de 2002

Querida familia:

Me siento miembro de esa familia universal de padres como yo, que hemos perdido a un hijo por el motivo que sea.

Comparto el dolor por la pérdida de su hija y les deseo que Dios les ayude a soportar el vacío que deja su ausencia.

I believe it's the hardest thing on life and there are no words to explain those feelings. I'm the father of 'Santi',(Santiago García Alcubilla) the second boy of this Memorial Wall list, who also died of leukemia in 1997 when he was only 6 years old.

The mornig he died, I was alone with him in hospital, and I felt of the sadness of the world, and that moments became to me like 'the day after' (I imagine: la misma devastación y desolación tras la explosión de una bomba nuclear...!)

I'm sorry of your loss and I wish you the best.

God bless you all.

Excuse me for mixing both languages.

Yours sincerely.

Dear Amy, Bob and Kevin,

My daughter Bryten played with Delaney in their kindergarten class. I remember Bryten one day after school so excited telling me that she played with her special friend Delaney and that they had fun. I later learned that Delaney had leukemia. I told Bryten that Delaney was indeed a very special friend. When we learned of Delaney passing away I explained to Bryten that her special friend was in heaven now. Bryten pondered on my explaination long and hard and finally said "Well now I have a new angel with my Grandpa." Then when we were star gazing one night recently, Bryten pointed to a big twinkling star and said "Mommy look--that's Delaney! She's saying hi to me." I am happy that my daughters life was touched by Delaney. Bryten is comforted by knowing that her Grandpa has someone special to play with in heaven. My heart and prayers go out to you all. God bless you!

Amy,

Michelle asked me the other day if I had heard anything about how Delaney was doing. I was crushed when I checked your web site. Words cannot express our condolensces. She was (and is) a beautiful girl. I can't imagine what you are going through. As we may have mentioned, our second daughter, Brittany, left to be with the Lord when she was almost 2. (she drowned in my parents pool). I can remember thinking I would not be able to go on. My faith that she is in a better place, where there is no sickness or pain, is what got me through the really dark moments.

Your and your family will be in our prayers.

I love you! You will be in my heart forever. <3

Victoria Kitty
A gift that was given from a young girl who has passed,
it is my treasure forever it will last.

The fur is worn from being cuddled so many nights,
the dress is faded pink, the bow is tied on tight.

Her nose is no longer pink, still there is a smile upon her face, her fur is no longer white, compared to the silky lace.

It was her favorite kitty, one she loved very much,
it brings back memories with just a simple touch.

I won't keep it locked away, I will cherish it like she did,
it is my special treasure from such a special kid.

Praise God that your beloved Delaney is so much more than an angel now! She is whole and she joyfully and expectantly awaits in the presence of our heavenly Father for that glorious morning when the dead in Christ shall rise; when we, who have also believed, are caught up with them to meet our Lord with whom we shall be forever where there is no death, sorrow, crying nor pain. I am so grateful to a Saviour that brings His comfort and His peace in even this, our most cutting and enduring pain. I will grieve the rest of my life. I will, however, grieve in hope, precious hope, for I will hold my Anna again. I pray you might also have this peace.

We laid your body to rest on Saturday. It is a beautiful place, right in front of a Koi pond by the waterfall. It is very serene. Your body maybe there, but your spirit is alive. I spent the week with your mom and dad and big brother. It is very hard for them, but they are strong. Strength they are receiving from you. I will visit your grave on occasion, when I am in San Diego, but I will feel you, see you, and talk with you much more often. For you are my Guardian Angel. God be with you.

Dear Amy, Bob & Kevin,
You don't know me, but I also have a daughter with leukemia. I learned about Delaney from ALL Kids online. My heart and prayers go out to you during this time and in the months and years ahead. This is a dreadful disease and I hate it that our precious children suffer because of it. May God watch over you and comfort you right now.

Bob, Amy, and Kevin: I don't think Ty ever meet Delaney while they went through treatment. But he knows her now. He meet her at the gate and helped her learn her way. I am crying for your loss. I am crying for your pain. I am crying that you must now learn a whole new life without this Angel you so love. No one should ever experiance this life that we now have. I am here for you at anytime you need someone who understands. I know Delaney and Ty are watching over us. Why couldn't they have done it from down here!?!

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Delaney. We have heard about her through Bert, Abby's dad, Abby is a Make A Child Smile child (www.makeachildsmile.org). In 1999 I started a group making cross stitch quilts for sick children featured on the MACS page. Last year when one of the stitchers passed away while stitching for Samantha (see http://lovequilts2001children.homestead.com/Samantha.html)her mom sent me her unfinished stitching to finish as well as an "In Remembrance" card from her funeral. There was a wonderful poem with this card and it read...

GOD LOOKED AROUND HIS GARDEN
God looked around his garden
and found an empty space;
He then looked down upon this earth
and he saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you
and lifted you to rest;
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain,
He knew you might never
get well upon this earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
and the hills were hard to climb,
so He closed your weary eyelids
and whispered "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you never went alone,
for part of us went with you
the day God called you home.

May the peace of the Lord be with you at this time.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Wright
We have been following Abby O's fight through MACS and heard of your loss through Bert. While you do not know me, I can assure you that literally thousands of prayers are being lifted up for you through the loving family of MACS. Words cannot possibly allieviate your sense of loss, but from what I've read, your faith in Christ will support you. God is sovereign, and one day all of this will make sense. When you arrive in heaven and see the beautiful tapestry of Delaney's life, and your own, you will see His wonderful creation through His heavenly perspective and see the beauty of His work. Small comfort to you now, I know, but rest in knowing that Delaney is in the arms of our Saviour!
Praying for God's peace and comfort for you both and for Kevin!!

I'm so sorry! The news is shocking and devistating! Coral said she is very sad and misses Delaney but is glad that she doesn't need to get any more chemo, have any pain and is an angel up in the sky. She wants to be an angel so she can play with her. Coral also said that she wants to see you all really soon. Your little angel touched us so much! Coral's journey wouldn't have been as bearable without her. My journey wouldn't have been as bearable without you. It's amazing how strong we become through it all. Your family has been, and remains, an inspiration and comfort to Coral and I. Please contact me when you're ready. We love you all so much and want to help you in any way we can. If Kevin needs to get out of the house, he can play with my nephew Jachob anytime. Coral and I want to see you all soon. If you have photo's of Delaney and Coral, could you e-mail them to me sometime. Coral wants pictures of the two of them together on her web site and up on her wall.

With our greatest sympathy and love,
Cindy & Coral Avery

Dear Amy, Bob, Kevin and Sweet Angel Delaney;

There are no words to express how much our hearts are aching for you all. Delaney radiates a lifetime of joy being a role model, playing, smiling, maintaining and sharing her spirit, through all her suffering. Her life patterns the life of Christ. Children emmulate their parents. Your family obviously offered everything earthly and spiritually possible to enable Delaney to make every moment of her life count. What a fine brother Kevin is, and so lucky to have you all as parents. I hope that you know what an impact your whole family has had on ours though your written word. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm sure your grief is beyond comprehension. You have a right to feel every emotion in the book. We're praying for you to be OK. Your tears are heart felt in Missouri. We will always remember Delaney and learn from her life philosophy. We will keep in touch.
Your Friends, Dianne, Paul, Tricia and Jackie Roth

"God's Heavenly Garden"
by Dorothea K. Barwick

Sometimes God picks the flower
That is still in full bloom.
Sometimes the rosebud's chosen
That we feel He's picked to soon.
Sometimes the flower is fading
With petals floating down,
But God knows the perfect time
To gather flowers from the ground.
There is a heavenly garden
In which God takes great pleasure
Because He's placed within it
The loved ones that we treasure.
He walks among the blossoms
Giving them eternal rest,
And I know that it must please Him
Because He chose our very best.

I only wish I would have had the opportunity to meet Delaney in person. I don't even remember how I got to her site the first time, but after I did, I was hooked. There was something about your little angel that spoke to me the first time I looked at her picture. What a beautiful little girl. Her personality just jumped out of her pictures. What strength and determination from such a little thing!! When I opened her site this morning at my desk at work, I just couldn't believe it was true. I would pray every night that God would take care of her and make it all work for her. I just don't understand God's plan. I guess that is why it is called "faith". Your family has shown so much faith through this whole terrible trip, you simply amaze me. God has worked through all of you and now Delaney is playing up in heaven, her just reward for all of her work on earth. I just wish I could have hugged her! God's blessings from another one of Delaney's fans. I pray God will hug all of you a little tighter in the days to come. Please know there are so many people who love and care for your whole family that you don't even know. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart for sharing your little angel with me.

There are no words to take the pain of missing someone away, There are no words that can comfort you in your loss. But I would like to think that because Delany is an angel that that alone will help you through the rough times and help you to enjoy the good times. I feel as if I have lost my daughter as I have been watching your posts for over a year n a half now. My heart is heavy yet knowing she no longer has to suffer on this earth and that God was selfish enough to take her pain, I have some comfort. Still, the selfishness of wishing that all this disease and illness could just dissappear and keep our loved ones near, just kills my soul. So much Love and wishing there was something I could do to heal you all.

Amy,
I'm so sorry about the loss of your precious little one. But, it's so true that heaven has a new angel. I've talked to you a couple times on the aml list. I lost my beloved husband, Tommy(30) to aml m2 on Dec. 8, 2001. I look up to you for your exquisite faith in the Lord. That's the only thing that can get us all through this. What a terrible disease. God bless you, always. Delaney was such a fighter.

Dear Wright Family,

We are so devastated at today's news, but are thankful Delaney left Earth gently and in peace. Thank you for sharing her journey so frequently through your wonderful emails. Delaney went through much more than many of us could bear and is an inspiration to us all. Macy is so sad to have lost such a wonderful friend...and at age 5. We hope you find strength in your memories of Delaney and we pray for peace in your family in 2002. God bless.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is hard to express what I would really like to say other than you are right. Delaney is in Heaven now and having such a great time with that new body that is healthy and free of those bad guys. I can just see that smile with all that spunk in those eyes. Thank you for sharing this part of Delaney's life with us.
I'll pray for your comfort and for Jesus to put his loving arms around the three of you and the extended family.

Dear Amy Bob, and Kevin,Words cannot express the saddness I feel for you on this sad day, and to hear such saddness in Carol's voice, said it all. Delaney fought such a hard battle, much too much for any child to have to fight, but her reward is the everlasting life with God the almighty, and I hope that with time, that you will feel comfort with that thought. Our thoughts are with you today and always, Fondly, Kim, Steve, Michelle, and Amanda

My daughter Liana and I met Delaney at Miranda Wirt's birthday party on year ago in December just before Delaney became ill. They had fun playing together and Liana has since referred to her as her friend. We are so sorry about the loss of your precious daughter. We know how much you will miss her and how much you look forward to seeing her again in Heaven. Our prayers and love are with you as you grieve and begin your new life. God bless you and love always.

Amy, Bob and Kevin - May God and all who know you comfort you after the loss of such a beautiful little girl. I was so shocked to learn that Delaney is no longer with us. Though I am in England, and had not met her, seeing her photos, hearing about her progress and her spirit in recent months, knowing as a ALL parent what this is like, has made me feel that I knew her in some way. I will continue to pray for that little angel, and for your family in their grief.

Hi, Delaney,
I'm one of the cycling mentors with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training program. We just found out you are one of our Honored Teammates. Welcome to our Team! We will start training on January 26th for our hundred mile ride (called a "century") around Lake Tahoe in June which we do to raise money to find the cure for leukemia and lymphoma. My role is to teach people who have never ridden that far on a bike before how to go about achieving the goal of doing a century. I will also be raising money to find the cure.
Take good care of yourself. You now have a whole bunch of really nice people who are interested in you and want to have you feel better.

I havent written in the guestbook in a while but I do check in almost daily. I hope you like the kitty cat stuff the kids sent, and I hope mom & dad are getting a little break here and there... I used to complain to my hubby about my having to be the bad guy for Ronnie's 9 hour iv's appointments; I cant imagine being there ongoing.
There are a lot of people pulling for you and praying for you, and we cant wait to hear how well you do when the new leukemia medicine starts. Hang in there, we all love you.

{Kevin, I didnt forget about you, I just mailed them separately! I know Ronnie's 2 older sisters have had a lesson in growing up fast since our lives got disrupted by the big L, and I wouldnt forget about you}.

Dear Delaney and family,
We would like to wish you good luck on your trip to Texas. We have been praying for Delaney's cure since you contacted us. Here is a quote that carried us through our difficult time with Nate;
"When you come to the end of everything you know, and are faced with the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing one of two things will happen. Either there will be something solid for you to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly." You are in our prayers. Please feel free to call/ write anytime. Sincerely, the Parry's

To the Wright family - You are in my heart and in my prayers. I hope that this new medicine is the miracle that you have all been praying for! I agree with Mother Theresa - sometimes it looks like our God has more faith in us and our strength than we do in ourselves, but I think that is because we get so focused on what we are going through that we can't see anything else. Just remember that there are lots of us out there walking and praying with you!

My Inspiration

The day I found out
that you were really sick,
I knew I didn't want to lose you
and knew you wouldn't quit.

Your mind is too stubborn
and your heart is too strong,
you will get better
it will not be long.

As doctors stand around you
you don't understand at all,
you are only five
you are too little, too small.

When doctors doubted your survival
you continued to smile,
you are my inspiration
you make me go that extra mile.

I wish I could comfort you
and help you ease the pain,
I wish I could relate to you
tell you I feel the same.

Distance keeps me from seeing you
though I keep your picture by my bed,
and when I leave the house
your picture is always in my head.

I love you with all my heart
and have so much faith in you,
but most importantly
have faith in yourself, too.

Oh gosh, reading your latest entry just put a rock in my stomach. A definite need of prayers are headed your way. I seeks His assistance in combatting against these darn leukemic cells -- they are sooo pesky!! Delaney you are a true winner -- so keep up the fight. You will beat this disease!! My 9 year old daughter was browsing through your website (before I could get into your Guestbook) and you really stole her heart. She enjoyed looking at your pictures in your photo album -- what a beautful little girl you are. Our heart, hands and prayers reach out to you and your family. We pray for strength & endurance as you get yourself back into remission to forge ahead with your transplant. Amy, if there's anything I can do to help your family (from Orange County) please don't hesitate to ask. We know what you're going through and we are not very far away.

Hugs to you all,

You can leave a message on Holly's website guestbook. I am sorry to read that you are back in the hospital. The Doctors have to do what is right to make you all well. You keep smiling and spend some time in the play room.

Holly and I use to sing a song together it went like this "He's still working on me to make me what I ought to be." Jesus is still working on you so keep smiling for Daddy, Mommy and Kevin.

You and your family will be added to my list of special people I pray for. My father died 4 years ago from leukemia, so I've asked him to be an angel on your shoulder all of the time because he knows how you feel. My mom and I ran the California International Marathon in Sacramento for the Leukemia Team-In-Training to raise money for leukemia research in 1996. Just between my mom and I, we raised over $5000!!! The wonderful people at SMUD, McClellan AFB, friends, and family were the wonderful donators to help us find a cure. May God bless you and your family always, Delaney!

Hello Delaney,
I'm a friend of your Mother's, from back in our High School Days in California. My oldest daughter, Kate, is a junior in High School right now; it's hard to believe that I met your Mom when she and I were younger than Kate is today.
I am so glad to hear that you are better. For a long time, my Company's virus scan wouldn't let your update emails, through so I had to keep up with your progress through mutual friends.
Keep smiling and keep the faith. You will continue to improve. You are so lucky to have such wonderful parents and loving big brother.
Your friend, Leslie Heavey

Amy,

I am thrilled to read that the Mylotarg is doing it's job - the blasts are being reduced. I hope that the progress continues and Delaney is just around the corner from her cord blood transplant. My prayers are with you all for strength and endurance. It is a traveled journey, with ups and downs along the way. Continue to forge ahead with good measures of progress. The best is yet to come.

Hi Delaney and family! I'm Elizabeth Wriker (Jeff Wriker's daughter), 19 years old, and I was diagnosed with AML M1 April 4, 2001. I've had two rounds of chemo back home (in Oklahoma) and then I was sent to Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, TX for a bone marrow transplant. When I got here, I found out that I had relapsed so I had to have treatment before the transplant. We had some good news today: My donor has decided to donate stem cells! We were so happy. My transplant date is October 5th and I'll be admitted Sept. 28th. I am very anxious.

I had myelotarg and it was GREAT!! If any chemo could be great... :o) I know you will do well with the other dose. I had no side effects whatsoever, except for a little nausea and some tiredness, which was NOTHING compared to what I had with regular chemo. I think it is the best treatment out there for what we have.

You are a beautiful little girl and I know that God has his arms wrapped around you every second of the day. Keep your chin up and keep smiling.

Hi Delaney,

My soon-to-be-three-years-old Linus has leukemia too. My five year old Henry also just started Kindergarten, and when he saw your photo with your name written in Cheerios he went tearing off like a tiger saying, "I'm gonna do that too!"

Good luck with your treatment!

I'm glad that you are still feeling good. I wouldn't be crazy about doing more treatments either. God loves his little children so I am going to pray for you every day for God to make your blood better. God's healing power is the only thing that can make you better. God can work through your Doctors and the new medicines. You keep fighting and smiling.

Delaney and Wright Family,

This week is the holiest time of the Jewish religion. We believe that on Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year (last Tuesday) God opens the book of life and checks our good deed account. If we have been good people over the last year, then God records our names in the book of life and we are okay for another year. On Yom Kippur, (next Thursday), we fast and ask for forgiveness for the bad things we did, not just from God, but from people we have been bad to. This is a sacred time when God is really paying attention to the whole world and it is a unique time for healing and renewal...

Please know that we are praying for your healing and for the renewal of health and spirit for you and your whole family.

We love all of you!

Hey Delaney, You are one strong little girl. You keep smiling for mommy and daddy. I use to tell Holly that "Good days are coming". You will before long get to forget all this because GOOD DAYS ARE COMING. I am so sorry your tummy hurts. I am glad to read that mom says nothing about mouth sores. Those soldiers should be coming to make your tummy better really soon. Holly and I like to call the WBC's soldiers because they use to come save the day. We would ask God to send the Soldiers when she had a bad infection. I have read what Mom has wrote. You have had a few bad times too. GOOD DAYS ARE COMING!!!! Remember that Jesus loves His little children.
