I just heard about an hour ago that the 5 year old daughter of one of the teachers at my high school died this evening after fighting a difficult battle with leukemia. This news was so incredibly sad because I knew how strong little Caroline Harmon had been fighting over the past few months. During my senior year in high school, I was a member of the Student Council, and we conducted several fundraisers in order to benefit the Harmon family. We collected new toys and videos for Caroline in order to keep her occupied when she began her cancer treatment in quarantine. We raised money for gas and food, as well, because the family had to drive back and forth from Lafayette to Minnesota for treatment. I had not heard much news recently about Caroline Harmon's condition so I assumed that she was on the road to recovery. I'm just so shocked that such a small child could be taken in this manner. My thoughts and prayers go to the Harmon family in this time of pain and sadness. At least she will be in heaven where all the pain and suffering will be gone forever.
