CF Update: CF Trust Calendars

The United Kingdom has the "CF Trust", which is the equivalent to our "CF Foundation". Lorraine Barnes, mother of 2 boys with CF, has a wonderful fundraising idea...calendars! She asked for pictures from anyone who has CF, and because I think this is a great cause, I sent her a picture of Samantha! The calendars will be out later this year, but Lorraine has put a slide show together. Just click here for the slide show. As you can see by the 20 minute video, Lorraine received an overwhelming response! When I watched it tonight, Samantha was at the 4:12 mark. And the picture I submitted to the calendar is the picture I decided on for this contest, which completely personifies Samantha's personality. The quality of the picture is not great (I had to zoom in a bunch), so if you can't really see it on the show, here it is:

I love that picture! So is she going to be in the calendar? Oh friend, I just got caught up on all your latest blogs and I hurt for you...I know it has to be so hard with the school thing. I am anxious to hear what they had to tell you today. I love you and I am praying for you and T.

It was kind of hard for me to see Sam because of the effects of the video. Are you planning to post a copy of the pic? I really want to see it now!

VERY cute!! I thought from the video that she was peeking through a fence but I wasn't sure. Thanks for posting this pic. When will you know the results of the contest?
