Many of you may know that Carrie is working on opening a school/rehab center for special needs children next fall. A ton of work has gone into this already, and soon it will be a dream come true. It’s called Lauren’s Institute For Education, or LIFE.
While we were doing the fund raising events for Lauren’s transplant, several media outlets picked up the story and publicized it for us. Scott McGhee, a reporter at Channel 3 News, took a particular interest and gave us a lot of coverage.
Carrie called him this week to see if he would be interested in doing a follow up on Lauren two years post transplant, and also see what is happening with the new school. He was very eager for this opportunity, and met Carrie and three of her partners/staff at the site yesterday to film the segment. It aired last night, and is posted online today. He did a great job with the piece, as did Carrie and of course, Lauren! Check it out.
That was a very nicely done story. I hope it generates lot’s of support for LIFE.
That\’s absolutely awesome! I have goose bumps & it brought tears to my eyes. May God richly bless their efforts.
That reminds me of II Corinthians 1:3-6 – as God gives us the ability to comfort others out of our pain. That is so awesome! Please say “Hi” to Brian and Carrie for me.
Great piece, great story.
I saved the story on TIVO, and have played it several times. It is just as great the 12th time as it was the first.
