Adrienne Anderson, environmental activist, has brain tumor

(Ed. note: This is being posted with the urging of Adrienne Anderson herself. Never one to shrink from reality, she has asked me to chronicle this part of her journey. I do so with tears in my eyes.)

Doctors prepare to remove dressings from Adrienne's head 3 days after brain surgery.

  1. Hey I hope you are doing better. I know the therapy can be difficult but it really is good for you! I haven real excuse for not calling except busy with Sorority recruitment, my daughter looking fort another apartment... As you probably remember kind of hectic at times.

    I'm guessing by now you are at the mid point in treatment which is a good thing!

    Adrienne, please know that we are all praying for you and your girls!! Love, Caroline

    Hello Adrienne - I'm just a high school friend you've probably long forgotten - or maybe didn't even know - but I so remember you. You were witty and charming and even today, so beautiful inside and out. Thank you for your wisdom and your strength. God bless you.

    Ok so I guess Adrienne you got the drift of my message... Typing needs some improvement! If you had been a "keygirl" instead of an "Owl" at SMU I would be able to send Kappa kisses and lifesavers... But instead I'll just send HOOTIES Hugs...(Wrapping those big wings around you)!!!!!! Love, Caroline
