Blogger/Recapper Update: Madelaine's Health
Caraymates,
I have been in touch with many of you over the last week as
I have gotten updates from Blogger Madelaine’s family about her health. Many of
you have asked if we shouldn’t share the news more widely on the blog, and so I
am using this space to do so now. Most of you know Madelaine as one of our most
energetic bloggers, recapping multiple telenovelas at a time, multiple times a
week. He recaps and comments are folksy and warm. Her ever-ready, perfectly
matched song/music selections are infectious. Over the last few weeks she has
been unusually absent from the blog, battling what she thought was a tough flu
bug.
Mads and her family now know that her fight is much greater
than that. Sadly, she is battling stage four lung cancer. I know most have you
have already been sending her prayers and well-wishes. I ask that you redouble
those, as Mads goes through radiation and chemo over the next few weeks. If you
would like to send her a letter/card/note directly, please e-mail me by
clicking on my avatar.
I hope you are all well out there.
Abrazos,
Vivi

Oh, no!!! That is so sad.
Definitely sending all my good vibes her way. She is a tough one, so I have faith she will overcome. I have missed her here!

Vivi---This is so terrible. I don't know Madelaine except through the computer but I know that she is one of the very best.
Of course I would send a card but there is a problem. When I click on your picture you brief info comes up, ok but when I click on your email it says---could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed. I can't get through.

Prayers, hugs and good vibes to one of the best recappers (((((((((((((((((( )))))))))))))
Besides her recaps, her comments on the other recappers' posts reveal the kind and generous person she is.
XOXOXO, Madeline - hang in there, we are all pulling for you.

I read the site often but usually don't comment and have probably never told Madelaine how much I appreciate and enjoy her contributions(especially the songs and references) but I do and am a little ashamed that it took this to bring me out of the woodwork.
Many thanks Madelaine for volunteering here, really its a lovely thing to do, and I'm sending thoughts, well wishes, esperanzas, good vibes, and prayers to you.
To Vivi and all the other volunteers on this site
Thank You
Many more people appreciate your work here than tell you.

Vivi, thank you. I have already written and plan to do so again.
Madelaine embodies all that is kind, generous and good. She has a knack for bringing all of the commenters into the fold and making everyone feel special and included.
Madelaine always makes everyone feel that what they have to say is important.
Seeing my younger brother battle back from cancer and my youngest brother recover from a stroke has made me believe in miracles.
I will keep Madelaine close in my thoughts and prayers. Madelaine, we are with you in this battle, every step of the way.

Madelaine, we love you and appreciate you as much as if we know you face to face. We'll be thinking of you every day.
I'm glad you shared this with the whole CarayCaray community Vivi. Please, everyone, send a card. It makes a difference. My friend with leukemia had her hospital room papered with cards. A visual reminder that so many loved and cared for her.
Hi, I just found out today.
Madelaine was my link to this blog through all 182 PEAM episodes and I wish her the best. I couldn't have done it without her. Get well soon!
Madelaine,
Do what you can with what you have, where you are, as you always have. Hugs! Pablo

Write to Vivi. She's listed her email here. If that doesn't work, contact me: Vivi sent me Mads' address.
sorry to hear that. Mads is such a warm and active presence in these blogs... putting her on my daily prayer and affirmations list... She is whole and wonderful and i affirm she is healthy and strong... she will get through this.
601@ Madelaine, I am so sorry to hear this terrible news. May the Lord God shields you in his loving embrace as you do battle with this disease. I will keep you in my prayers. You will be victorious.
Romy.
