Summary: Lo's Story Will Be With Me Always
Comment: I cried my tears as I read your story. I am still in awe over the ability of the human spirit in adversity. Lo and her family have touched thousands of hearts thru their lives and thru their book, no doubt inspiring countless others to stretch themselves to do something they fear is impossible, or to forge ahead when life seems like "too much to handle". Now, when I catch myself complaining about anything at all, I remember the Deitrichs, and the fact that Lo has to "fight" for every breath she takes. I humbly shift into gratitude for my life and my health, and I send loving thoughts to this and other CF families, and pray that my strength may be equal to theirs if I am ever faced with seemingly insurmountable odds, odds that they live with every single day. Thank you for opening your lives to others.

Summary: The Spirit of Lo
Comment: The Spirit of Lo is a story of a remarkable family. Mom and dad relate their life experiences about a daughter (now age 16) inflicted with cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease that counts children's lives in years rather than decades.
The book begins in the doctor's office sixteen years ago as the doctor relates the diagnosis for their infant daughter (Lo) that forever will change their lives. The report...Marriages often crumble, family ties become difficult, financial woes are prevalent, hospital stays are expected, daily treatments are overwhelming and on & on.
However, their story is not one of despair. Not even close to it. It is a story of hope. That hope can prevail and leads to strength of character in face of all odds that speak otherwise. As the very real story unfolds, you find that the story of hope is not only for their daughter and family, but one of hope for us all.
Best of all, you will find inspiration that no matter the travails of life that all families encounter, that life should and can be filled with good.

Summary: That's it!
Comment: So many things in your book made me want to shout "THAT'S IT!" The smell of the formula, the loose stools before the enzymes kicked in, the entire shelf in the kitchen filled with her medicines, the astronomical medical bills, the exhaustion, the depression, the frustration. No one understands except the parent of a chronically ill child what it is really like. Your book does a wonderful job of giving others a glimpse of what our lives are like. I plan to get copies for all my sisters to read. Thank you for taking the time to put it together. I plan to keep you all in my prayers.
