I come to you this morning, excited about our win last
night, but also excited about life. It's funny how some small things can put so
much into perspective.
Yesterday, we has a special guest and visitor named
Hannah. Hannah is from the Make-a-Wish program, and she wanted to meet her
favorite player. Well I'm blessed to say that I was that player. Hannah and her
family blessed us with their presence for shoot-around and the game. I was able
to take her around, show her the locker room, and take a few pictures with her.
This really brightened my day. After the game was over I was able to speak with
her a little bit more. As I walked out to sign autographs, Hannah comes up and
thanks me again and hand me one of her bracelets. She said she wanted me to have
it. Her bracelets say Hearts for Hannah and it has her illness on it. I then
took off my H.O.P.E. bracelet and gave
her mine. I always play with my hope bracelet on my wrist, but I will now
represent Hannah from her on out!
This little 11 year old is brave, strong and courageous.
I am so happy that I got to meet her and spend a little time with her.
We have an important road trip coming up against Western
Conference opponents in The Phoenix Mercury, and the San Antonio Silver Stars.
We will rest up a little and get back to preparation in the morning.
I will keep you all posted. Thanks!
Meek
