Last month I wrote a post called The Girl Next Door , about a 7 year old girl named Natalie. She was diagnosed with brain Cancer and the last year has been an uphill struggle</description><dc:language>en</dc:language><generator>CommunityServer 2007 SP1 (Build: 20510.895)</generator><item><title>re: Follow-up: The Girl Next Door (aka Laptop for Nat)</title><link>http://weblogs.asp.net/bsimser/archive/2009/04/29/follow-up-the-girl-next-door-aka-laptop-for-nat.aspx#7069909</link><pubDate>Fri, 01 May 2009 15:59:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">c06e2b9d-981a-45b4-a55f-ab0d8bbfdc1c:7069909</guid><dc:creator>jacee</dc:creator><author>jacee</author><description>&lt;p&gt;yeah, Ajay, boy nothing like a little kindness and humanity to really screw up technical stuff...who needs a life, here? &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;can you stop your pity party and get on with life.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have personally faced problems in my life but have taken it everything on the chin and moved along.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you realise many people subscirbed to your blog for technical stories not these sob stories......&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have empathy for people your mention... but you know it&amp;#39;s such a big world out there and so many people out there are suffering ....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Get over it brother&lt;/p&gt;

We spent nine months living through it and a year later are still dealing with the effects of the chemo she had. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I also can&amp;#39;t begin to tell you how much what you have set up is appreciated. Unfortunatley, most people try to get as far away from the &amp;quot;fire&amp;quot; as possible rather than helping out. Two thumbs up for your work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Peace and Grace,&lt;/p&gt;
