More than a month has gone by since I have posted. A lot of good things have been going on, but Molly doesn't really want me to tell her story on the world wide internet. I can respect that. For all of those who have been so supporting, I just want to thank you for your continuing aid.
Lindsay, we are in the book if you want to call Molly. Xavier, I loved reading your comment as much as I loved brushing your hair! We miss you guys and hope everything is going well for you in Texas. Your house is still standing.
To all of Molly's friends out there in college land, doesn't look like you will be coming home for the end of February. Yay!
To Tyler and Nikko, God's speed in your recovery. The fact that you are out of the hospital so soon says a lot about your good health and attitudes. Molly was happy to meet you. We are here for you and your families if you need anything. Good luck on your new journeys we call life.
To Janie, you look great in your pictures. I hope you and your mom are doing OK.
Jeannette, Brian, and Chelsey; Molly was thrilled to get a call. Chelsey, you must be ecstatic to finally be able to talk. Wishing you more good news and progress.
Last night I had the good fortune to take Molly to see Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. She was probably one of about 20 people there under the age of 45. We had a great time. For an old guy, Bob Seger ROCKS!!! It was a nice change of pace to be with Molly in a fun atmosphere instead of one of her numerous appointments.
Katy and some of her friends are in the process of setting up a foundation to assist injured or ill athletes. We still have quite a bit of work to do to get up and running, but there is a web site where merchandise can be purchased to help with funding. Check out http://www.cafepress.com/bloomagain/0
I will give more updates on this as they come. Hope everyone had a beautiful Valentine's Day. Be excellent to each other.

Wow. How wonderful to get to a place where Molly can take her story back. I'll miss knowing what is going on with your wonderful family and her courageous story, but I'll just tuck it into my heart as an unknown happy ending.
I'm glad that you're out there in my home city, hopefully having a great life, day by day.
Thank you for all your inspiration.
If there is any upcoming event or organization please find a way to let us know. I'm sure there will be fewer and fewer checking back here now that you have reached this wonderful stage.

Molly and your family continue to inspire all of us and to give us hope in the goodness and strength of the human spirit. I continue to come to Molly's page, and I guess having no posts for awhile lets me know that Molly is moving on with HER life, her private life, and how good that sounds. Please know that no matter what we all read on her page in the future, a whole community will always be with her and all the family. Thank you for sharing your strength, your joys, your tears, your frustrations, your hope.

That's wonderful that Molly continues to recover and is having many "good things" coming her way. How disappointing that the world, having rooted for her through her accident and protracted recovery, is not to know of those things in her life she so deserves. In any case, the world wishes her more success with her life and the foundation.
Hello Bob, Bernie, Katy, and Molly, It sounds good to hear that Molly is getting to enjoy things again. The Bob Seger concert sounded great. I've always liked that band. May God continue to bless you all and if you can, keep us posted.
I have to tell you of my Uncle Lexie. Lexie is a real union man and when he went to Las Vegas he went to a brothel. The first brothel he walked into he asked if it's a union house. The maadam said it wasn't, the house got 80% and the girls got 20%. Lexie said he was a union man and he won't do buisness there. The next brothel was the same thing so Lexie left that one too. The third brothel Lexie walked into he asked if it was a union house. The maadam said it was, and the house got 20% and the girls got 80%. So Lexie said,"That's great, I would like to be with that cute blonde in the corner." The maadam said, "I'm sure you would, but this is a union house, and that old lady on the couch has 50 years seniority and she's next in line.
Stay strong and stay cool,

I think it's marvelous that Molly is at a place where she wants to own her story and protect her privacy as she goes on to this next chapter of her life. Although we have all looked forward to hearing about her progress over these last few months, Molly owes us absolutely nothing. She and her entire family have given us so much hope, inspiration, positive energy and perspective throughout Molly's recovery. We are all honored to have been able to share in this journey.
I saw on today's news that the limo driver will be pleading guilty tomorrow to the charges filed against him. Perhaps this will give your family some measure of peace to know that you won't have to stress over the thought of testifying in court and going through a protracted legal battle.
Molly, we are all richer for knowing you, even those of us who have never had the pleasure of meeting you in person. We wish you good health, joyful experiences, love, laughter, and every good thing that you so richly deserve. Have a great life!

Dearest Molly, just read the press release regarding your comments about 'the driver.' You are filled with wisdom, and the character you have shown today is why in life you will go any place you want to go.
My admiration for you is boundless, may all great and good things come your way. I am, an

Best of wishes for you and you continue to move forward with the wonderful Plans that God has for you. Molly, I stumbled across your story when it first happened and have peeked in on you ever since. I have prayed for you and am so thankful for your continuing improving health and abilities. You are a strong young lady, beautiful in every way. You have touched many lives in ways you will never know until we get to heaven. God Bless You!
Molly,
Just read about the hearing all the way over here in rainy England and was truly inspired by the statement your family gave. I have followed your journey through this extraordinarily tough time and just wanted to wish you lots of love and luck for the future as you go about your life privately once more. Take care and may you continue to inspire the people closest to you.

Bernie,
You're children are amazing! Kudos to Katy.... I'm blown away! Music, I've said it before, it soothes the soul! Keep on rocking, Molly... you, too, Bernie!
Also, I look forward to your posts and updates but, totally understand Molly not wanting you to advertise it to the world. No matter if you never post again, Molly and your amazing family will always be in my prayers!
Molly-
I am so thrilled to hear how well you are doing, as I have followed your story for a long time now. I wish you only the best as you continue on with your life in privacy. Thank you for sharing your incredible courage, strength and determination with so many, many strangers. You truly are an inspiration. To your family- you should all be so very proud of yourselves and Molly, as I know you are. May God bring many, many blessings your way and I hope you know you will continue to be in so many peoples thoughts and prayers, long after the "story" dies down. I wish you all only the best and may your journey ahead be filled with love, happiness, courage, hope and faith!!

I am glad to hear that your family is on such an uplifting note. As a fellow classmate of Molly, I am glad to see she is continuing her recovery. She inspired everyone including me. I hope that the family continues to share your stories with the rest of us. I hope to hear more good news from your blog.
May my best wishes and regards be with you.

Hello Molly - I'm so happy to hear that all is going well with you. I talked to Ariel's Dad and he said you're doing great! You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers as time moves forward and so do you!! Greg graduates soon and will be heading to college as you will in the fall. Continue to Bloom Ms. Molly and I hope our paths cross again when I can see you in your full glory. Susan O
Hope Molly is doing well and moving on with her life. Hope all is well for the Bloom family
Hello Bloom Family!
I was just thinking about you all and came to visit your site to see how you were doing. I am very glad to hear that a lot of good things have been going on and I will hope and pray the many, many more good things continue to come your way. You are all often in my thoughts and prayers.
Molly, I hope that your new life's journey leads you on a path full of hope, blessings, and accomplishments. I watched the video of the plea deal and all I can say is... keep on smiling!! I continue to be impressed with your attitude and the fact that your smile still lights up your face! I'll always be rooting for you! Good luck in all that you do and enjoy college in the Fall.
Take care,

Well,it's May 13 - one year. I can't help thinking of you, even though we are across the country, celebrating Mother's Day in new York with my kids' grandmother and my daughter Cindy. Jack is in Alberquerque at his roommate's house. Love to you, Molly, and your mom, who deserves an award for best mother ever. Love to you, Bob, as well.
