Bed Time for Sweet Spot!

Hi all!
Sweet Spot (Sheri Paulson) is home on bed rest suffering with cellulitis. She doesn't have easy access to the web or email, so she asked me to pass the word along. She is seriously disappointed, especially with Chicago coming up so soon, but remains optimistic that she will recover enough to run, or at the very least go and cheer us on.

The condition started with what looked like a pimple, and quickly progressed to serious swelling and pain. She is on antibiotics along with bed rest. Cellulitis can be very serious, but it appears that Sheri caught it in time to prevent spreading. If you want to read more about it, you can check out:

The medication Sheri is on to keep her MS under control affects her immune system, which, unfortunately leaves her susceptible to these odd infections.

All prayers, positive energy, healing thoughts, ect. would be greatly appreciated!

Anybody out there?

Hello Everyone,
The blog and emails are so quiet!!! Just wondering if anyone else plans to do Bridge to Bridge. I hopefully am, depending on some childcare issues.
Also, my 4:30 a.m. running partner decided that it is too early for her to get up since she can't go back to bed anymore with school for her kids, so I am back to evening runs, which are not happening very often! Which I am bumbed about :(
Hope everyone is doing well!
Candace
