A thought for Cathy (updated)

Photo Hosted at Buzznet

Our good friend, eternal California girl and classy lady Cathy Seipp, has been battling lung cancer for more than 5 years and is now slipping away. Her daughter Maia is at her side in the hospital right now, writing updates on Cathy's World and on her blog --beautifully so. Comments are pouring in and blog mentions too. As Matt says, "Love! Strength!" (as of 11 this Tuesday morning, Cathy is still fighting. As of 11 p.m... she's sill refusing to let go. Incredible woman.)

+ Amy remembers how a fan letter sparked a frienship and tells this about Cathy: : "The friendship she's shown is a testament to who she is."
+ Tony at LAist: "Journalist and blogger Cathy Seipp has been sick for a while but you wouldn't know it. In between writing and blogging and being interviewed and hosting backyard parties attended by the likes of Ann Coulter to holding a roast for herself that asked (and received) no holds barred...
+ Matt: Never mind the Boo-Hooing, great pics of Cathy.
+ Nancy: our friend Cathy.

I would never have had the pleasure of meeting Cathy were it not for you, Emmanuelle, so thank you. My thoughts and sympathies to you and Matt and all of her closest.

If you could pass my love along to Cathy, I would really appreciate it.
