To the staff at the hospital, you people are amazing! We feel so lucky to have all of you taking care of Molly. Thank you for your great care and compassion. Your professionalism is beyond belief. Words aren't sufficient to express our gratitude. We have not encountered one employee who hasn't been top notch, from the maintenance staff, cafeteria workers, all the way to the nurses and doctors in charge. Our hats go off to all of you.
To all the bloggers, keep it up. We will be reading these to Molly during her recovery. Clarence, you make us laugh. Learn how to spell your name. Come back to see us. Kayle, I love you and will call as soon as I can. All of this support is phenominal and keeping us level.
Today was a good day. Molly remains in critical, but stable condition. We had no setbacks, so that is a good day. Her injuries continue to heal, and we are optimistic.
We have had two quiet days now and that has been very helpful for Molly and us, but we miss all of you. If you come up, please maintain the same level of courtesy and respect for the other families who are in our same situation, which you have demonstrated throughout this ordeal. We would like to ask that you end visiting hours by 6:00 so that we may have our time with Molly before the shift change. We love you guys! Thanks for everything.

Molly,
I ride the train each afternoon with your wonderful Aunt Franny.
I am deeply saddened to hear of your accident. We are several commuting friends who laugh and now cry together.
Our hearts and love are with you and also Franny.
May your recovery be swift and complete, the pool awaits you.
Sincerely,
Terrie
Molly Molly, Bo-Bolly!
I came and I visited you on Monday, and I can't stop thinking about you my dear! You are so wonderful, and we saw your and Hannah's movie in film, and it was hilarious. Good job. I was just recalling all the good times we've had over the years. I don't know if you recall, but that time you were at my house and you ate some bad yougert, and you starting wiping it off of your tongue, and I was laughing so hard. Then later you gave Even a bloody nose because he called you fat. You are the best, and the strongest, and I'll be visiting you this summer.
To Molly's parents and Family: I am praying for you as well, and you are in my thoughts as well. I love Molly a lot, we all do.

Molly, yesterday Mr. Madison showed our film class the movie that you and Hannah made. It was hilarious, especially the coreography of the judges, very well done. Not a day goes by that I don't miss that warm friendly smile of yours. Greg and I await your recovery and hope that you will be well soon. I love you soooo much Molly. I will always, always be there for you and your family.

Molly and Family,
Sending you prayers for healing and strength through this difficult time. I read your story on cnn.com and just finished reading some of the posts. Looks like you've got a lot of people who love you and are praying for you. I just know that will see you through. Prayers coming from Nashville, TN, also... hang in there and I hope you're getting better and stronger each and every day!
Molly,

Molly - I'm praying for you and your family. I know I still have your reading log folder here somewhere and would like to get it back to you. I'll find it when I open boxes in the fall and then I'll arrange to come and see you. You've always been held up to all my classes as one of my best writers. Maybe journaling now could turn into an opportunity for you later. I love you and pray for the best of all outcomes for you. Mrs. King
Molly,
I don't know you. I live in Brazil and I was reading the CNN's news on internet and then I found your history. I only want to say that somebody, too far from your country is thinking on you. I'm sure that everything will be all right and soon you'll be better.
Best wishes for you!!!
Henrique Piacsek from Brazil
Molly dearest,
Everyone at creek sends their most heartfelt wishes and love to you. You have supporters everywhere so know that you have millions of people rooting for you.
Every time I see your picture I smile and laugh about all the good times we've had together from Hawaii to all those practices with Jimmy.
I'm not sure you can count Pirate's Cove as a good time, but I guess with you everything was at least a little fun. On that note, the Pirate's Cove suckers, I mean staff sends their love too.
I love you so much, its ridiculous.

Molly,
I baby-sit for your cousin Rachel in Iowa and was so deeply saddened to hear of your accident.
I just want you to know that our family, church and several other prayer groups in this area are praying for you, your family and your friends.
May Heaven's healing touch be in your life, may angels attend to you daily and may the soft gentle whisper of Gods love ring in your heart.
Hang in there and God bless all of you!
Sincerely,
Beth

molly my dear,
you are in my thoughts all the time. you are so strong and so tough. you are an amazing girl, and i know that everyone who knows you agrees. we all love you so much.
well mr madison showed our movie to all of his classes, and i have gotten so many compliments for it. you did an amazing job editing it; it's really, really funny. he said the way you cut to the judges during the dancing shots could be a clinic on reaction shots. that was all you, girlie.
much love,
hannah
Molly,
I am from Louisville, Kentucky. I read your story on CNN.com and was very saddened by it. Reading your blog, it sounds like you have a wonderful family and a wonderful group of friends who support you.
Please hang in there and get better soon. You are in my prayers :)
To Molly's family, my thoughts and prayers are with you all through this difficult time. It sounds like you all have alot of love for each other and that will help you all through this as well.
Stay strong and God bless all fo you :)
Such a pretty girl, don't let this ruin your fun. The prom is an important event for all school aged boys and girls.
Still praying for you! I am looking forward to the day you can smile again. I know it will be sooner than later. Oh yeah, do you know you have the strongest parents in out whole family! Hang in there kiddo!
Love,
Sarah
Oh my wonderful, beautiful, funny, smart, incredible Molly i hope you know how much i love you! Not a second goes by when I don’t think of how strong that love is or some sort of crazy memory that i have had with you. In my life you have always inspired strength and happiness-- I’m not sure how i could have gotten over so many petty incidences (that seemed like the world at the time) without you. I might not be the best at speaking up for myself but i have gotten considerably better and i credit that to you. You have made me a stronger person and now all i hope is that I may be strong for you and give back all that you have done for me. I'm not sure if I can stand leaving you in the fall and I’m not going to if that’s what you need. Katie was telling me the other day about a speech she had made about you a few weeks ago. I’m not sure, you probably already know this, but it was about how you were her hero, When she told me I couldn’t help but smile because I have felt the same way for years. And I know no matter what you will be the one doing something incredible while the rest of us sitting with our jaws dropped in amazement-- but I always knew that. And also your curls will always be far superior to mine no matter how much I try.
Love Always,
Friend
driving to work this morning and, again, finding myself fighting back tears for this whole nightmare, I heard Bonnie Raitt's "I Will Not Be Broken." This soft, strong song helped me turn my despair to determination...at leasst for the moment. Maybe others of you will find it helpful as well.

Molly,
We are a Congress Park Pool family, our son Jack swims there every day and remembers you from the summer. We are praying for you every night before bed, especially for strength and courage as you face this change in your life.
The Murphys
Molly,
We don't know each other but a mutual friend called and asked for us to remember you in prayer. You have been on my heart every minute since that call.
Please know that the Lord is with you and our prayers are for you and your family.
II Cor. 13:11 "The God of love and Peace will be with you"
The road to recovery is sure to be a difficult one, but it is evident that God has blessed you with a wonderful "cheering section". You certainly have one, here in Kansas.=)
Sincerely,
Shannon, Ks
Hi again Molly,
I don't even know you and I just love you so much and can't get you off of my mind.
My son is your friend and he is just so protective of you and so in awe of who you are to him and I am glad that he knows you.
I look at the posts everyday and eagerly await the family comments as to how you are doing! I am so glad that you are improving!
All the love in the world!
An East high Mom and Graduate 1989!
Molly,
I graduated from East last year, and I'm at KU now, and I know you don't know me really, but my mom just called me and told me about what happened to you, and I just wanted to let you know how sorry I am. I can't even imagine how something like this could happen, and I am truly saddened. I hope that your recovery goes well, and I wish the best for your future. You are in my thoughts.
Molly,
I had been remenicing about the good ol' aquawolves days when I heard what happened, and I haven't stopped thinking about you since. You are such a sweet and fun girl, and I wish you a very speedy recovery.
Best Wishes,
erin
Molly,
I'm Amy (Rebecca Cohen's BIG sister). I remember when I first met you at Becca's house, I was in total awe of you---because you were one of a kind. You wore striped, rainbow colored tights with a skirt---and a bright, shiny smile. Really, an unforgettable smile! You not impressed me once, but twice. I came to watch Becca swim--but instead, I ended up watching you. Wow, such a slick swimmer! I hope all the best and more for you!
Love,
Amy
I read your story online and I'm so sorry this terrible thing has happened to you. Keep fighting and stay strong.
Molly,
You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Molly,
I have never met you nor your family and read of your terrible accident on the internet. Having a child of my own I can only imagine what your family must be enduring at this time. Please just know that while you may think you are alone and see only one set of footprints is when he carries you through. The Lord is with you and with faith and prayer anything is possible. I wish you a full and speedy recovery. Please also know that while we may not understand why this tragic accident had to happen God has a reason for everything that happens. Please do not turn your faith away from him. May God Bless you and heal you from your injuries. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless you.

Ms.Molly and Family ,
My daughter JaQuita went to East I was so saddend by the news our prayers and love our with you.
Molly, and Family,
We are thinking about you and praying for you every second that we can, Molly. You are such a fabulous kid, and we have been so honored to have your friendship and that of your wonderful Mom and Dad (Molly, Katie, Maria, and Mary--400 free relay extraordinaire--qualifying for state in the last event of the last meet your sophomore year will go down as one of our family's most memorable East moments). You have so many people praying for you it's hard to believe. Your doctors and incredible family are taking great care of you. Fight strong, Molly Bloom. We love you.
Kevin, Peg, and Mary Higgins
(Patrick, too)
Just want to let you know even strangers care - and my car SO needs to be washed on Saturday (thanks to the Texaco people at Florida & Holly). You are in one of the best areas in the world for medical care and therapy, and I hope the media will do those of us who do not know you a service by keeping us updated on how you are doing. You have a wonderful family, wanting to protect your privacy, though. We care, that's all. Best wishes.
Molly,
I know I'm not the first stranger to leave a comment, but as an East student, I feel obligated to express my feelings. I and the people at East are thinking of you and you lie with our prayers. We wish you to a healthy recovery.
From what my friends have told me, you are a strong person, and that helps to assure me that you will be alright
-Devin Pitts-Rogers
Molly, you are in my thoughts and prayers every day, everything about this mess is going to shape us all into stronger adults, i look forward to your recovery and to a long life of friendship beyond this tragedy
all the best, and, ill see you soon

Hello to Molly and her family,
I, like so many others, do not know you, but read of this tragic news on the internet. I cannot stay away from this page and long to know that you are going to be OK. At 18, I broke my neck in a car accident, today I am strong and healthy with a husband and 2 young boys. Things happen to certain people for reasons we may never understand. Just know that you have so many people who are listening to you and your family and holding you dear to our hearts. You sound like an amazing young woman with so much future ahead. Keep your head up and focus on getting better. The doctors in this world are amazing. Surround yourself with family and friends and take all the help they can give. We love you and we don't even know you. I promise to keep checking on your progress because i know that is what it will be. Rest well and let your family hold you. Thanks to them for making it possible for us all to hear your story.
We are an East family, our daughter is a Junior. We all sat and talked about how this was yet another reminder of how fragile our lives are, how we need to take nothing for granted. We are all so very sorry that this has happened to you Molly, and we wish for you all good things in life. We do not know you or your family, but with every opportunity that arises in the days ahead, we will contribute
however we can. May God shine his love and grace upon all of you.
Hey there Molly you may not remember me im a sophomore at GW and i swam against you this year I just wanted to send you the best of wishes and i hope you get better soon you are an amazing backstroker and a sweet girl and I think you should know that all of us at george are wishing you the best!
Tessa
Read the story about what happened to you, eventhough we don't know each other, my heart goes out to you. Be strong and be courageous. Everything happens for a reason, and even if it's difficult - trust in God and rely on Him. Bless you and your wonderful family and friends.
J - Australia
Glad to hear that you are improving. We are praying for you to have a speedy recovery. We think of you everyday. Stay strong!!!
We love you Molly! Stay strong! Don't ever ever ever give up. Ever.
Hey Molly,
Out east we are very glad to hear that you are recovering well. Keep up your spirits. I will be visiting the last of the family in Pittsburgh this weekend to let them know your progress. Yes, they don't have anything like internet at Manny and Tyba's house. But, they are moving to an aparment in Squirrel Hill. Maybe then, they will get cable and internet. But, I doubt it. Everyone is thinking of you and praying for your speedy recovery.
Love,
Jay
Molly & family ~

you are in my thoughts and prayers daily ..

Candada Says get well soon
Molly,
As soon as I heard about your accident my family and I started praying for you and your family immediatly. I remember the time that you went up to Copper Mountain with my mom and me (I think it was in 7th grade, maybe 8th) and we jumped on that huge trampoline together. I also remember going to one of your birthday parties where we all went to the pool and swam.
I havn't seen you in a long time but I remember what an amazing, strong, and brave (not to mention extremely funny) girl you are! I know that you can and will get through this!!
To Molly's Family,
If there is anything that my family or I can do for you please dont hesitate to ask!
Sincerely and with love,
Jori Gregorio
