Annie Sullivan

Annalee Grace Sullivan was born on April 7, 2003 and lived the life of a playful, spiritually sensitive, musical child until she was 3 1/2 years old. On January 21, 2007 she suffered an hypoxic brain injury from a seizure caused by undiagnosed Addison's Disease. In spite--or because--of her physical and cognitive limitations, Annie was a blessing to all who knew her. She died on March 25, 2011, and today stands in the presence of Jesus--completely whole and without disability.

Dusty's Vol-State Race Report

I'm sorry I've been AWOL for AWhile. A few things have been going on this summer, not the least of which is that Bill's elderly father is at home in hospice care, and the whole family has gathered around to care for him in his final days.

I'm there now, but had a few moments to share the link to Dusty's Vol-State Race report. I'm so impressed with her accomplishment: 314 miles in 9 days! And, she raised $5,161.40 that helped Adrenal Insufficiency United educate first responders on the care and management of AI. So proud of Dusty, and Jennifer at AIU, for pulling this all together!

Dusty's Race

My friend Dusty is about to begin Day 3 of the Last Annual Vol-State Road Race to benefit Adrenal Insufficiency United that I wrote about here. Keep up with her adventures across Tennessee here.

Dusty is raising funds so that representatives from Adrenal Insufficiency United can attend the International Fire-Rescue Conference in Denver, Colorado in August.

AIU will share with 13,000 emergency medical professionals

1. What adrenal insufficiency is,
2. How to identify a person in adrenal crisis, and
3. Why injectable liquid hydrocortisone (Solu-Cortef) should be carried on all ambulances/aid trucks.

Join Dusty in saving lives by bringing awareness of adrenal insufficiency. Give here.

Thanks! And Go, Dusty!
