Many Thanks Carrie and the DN for sharing this open invitation to attend our World MRSA Day 2009 Candlelight Remembrance for the Loved Ones, Survivors and Victims. Thank you for helping us put this Superbug on the public radar. With so many people getting it, and so many dying from it every year, we hope now, more will be done to stop MRSA.

At this 4 year anniversary of JimDear contracting MRSA in the heart and the miracle of surviving it, I want to thank all those worked so hard to save his life, for those who prayed for him and for us, for those whose generosity helped us through those many many difficult months and for the goodness that continues to this day. He overcame 5 surgeries, kidney dialysis, months of intensive care, and complete life support and walked out of the hospital on his own power on Fri the 13th, January 2006. America does have the greatest healthcare system! It is right here in Salt Lake City, Utah! Booyah!
