2008 - The Chatterbox

The Chatterbox Gamma Delta 2008 �

Bits and Pieces From the Collegianshe Gamma Delta chapter at Auburn University has had yet another incred-ibly successful year in 2007-2008. The

exciting year began with all of our squirrels chipping in to gather support for Auburn’s spring 2007 SGA elections, with our very own Mary Lindsey Gentry chosen as the new Miss Auburn! Many of our girls helped orga-nize election campaigns. In March, between socials and midterms, we held our annual philanthropy event, Wing Jam. Natalie Edwards did an amazing job organizing this open-mic talent show at Tiger’s Den which raised over $6,000 to benefit the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation. Soon after all of our hard work raising money we had a blast at our spring formal, Swampwater. Lau-ren Vercelli planned the night, where we danced under the stars at the Webster House

reetings from the Loveliest Village of

the Plain! It has been a fabu-lous year. Traditionally, we have events for both the alum-nae and the collegians. Our alumnae events include our February Dutch Treat Lun-cheon, Summer Salad Lun-cheon and an Alpha Gam Always lunch. This year our Dutch Treat Luncheon was indeed a treat as it was held at Christopher’s! The re-sponse, food and fellowship were great and new officers were announced. The Summer Salad Lun-

cheon was hosted by Joan Odom Asbury. Many came to her lovely home, where we made sure we had Recruit-ment Information Forms for all the local girls. We appreci-ate so much the time and per-sonal sacrifice of the alums who help with Recruitment. It is a huge and often difficult job. This fall, Susan Lovett Speakman organized an Alpha Gam Always lunch be-cause it is always fun to be an Alpha Gam! Everyone had a great time getting together just for the fun of it. We also get the pleasure of

hosting activities for the undergraduates. You will be glad to know that they are just as smart and pretty and more organized than ever. The Senior Supper, IRD and New Member Dinner are times where it is the pleasure of the alums to host a meal or a tea and have a chance to spend some time with the girls. Many thanks to Cindy Sims Bridges, Elizabeth Newton Lundey and Kelly Gal-lops Davidson for organizing the events and to Dorry Ann Hayes Blackburn for her gracious hospitality. Our last event of the year is the Mother-Daughter Christmas Tea for local girls and alums. Thanks to Madrid Davis Bailey, who opened her home. It was wonderful to see many new faces and a huge collection of gifts for Toys for Tots. We must raise money to provide for the above activities, The Chatterbox postage, Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation,

and Convention expenses. We do this by having our Spring Plant Sale. 2007 was the first time in three years that weather has not closed down our plant sale. Thanks to the good weather and the beautiful baskets supplied by Young’s Plant Farm. We were able to raise over $1,600! Lately we have also been selling nuts, because we’re squir-rels, of course!. We

started selling pecans since the ‘big box’ home stores have cut into our Plant Sale profits. Many thanks go to Susan Lovett Speakman and Dorinda Gunter Miller for their help. We raised about $400, which was even more than last year. We were glad to give $1,000 to the Foundation and are proud to announce that we are members of the Jewel So-ciety for the eighth year. Several alums were so kind to do-nate to the Chatterbox fund last year and we appreciated it so much. Our officers do a great job making the funds stretch far, and our local alumnae are so kind providing food and sharing their homes. Still, due to the rising cost of postage to send postcards to thousands of alums, we appreciate any donations and promise that we will be good stewards. Convention is this year in San Antonio, June 19 - 22. Please consider attending. Gamma Delta has been blessed to win many awards, yet we could use a better represen-tation there. We are honored that our very own, Jackie Brannon Stutts ’77, serves as International President. Thank you so much for your support of Alpha Gamma Delta. Best wishes for a wonderful year!

in Auburn. We had a sensational performance at Greek Sing in spring 2007 and won third place as well as the Spirit Award. After a short summer break, we returned to our Home on the Plain for Recruitment in early August. Our endless nights of preparation paid off because we had the best Recruitment Week. Huge thanks go out to Kimi Barton, Jill Bledsoe and Hollon McKay for working so hard to accomplish such a suc-cessful week! We initiated 58 outstanding new members into the Gamma Delta chapter. (see page 4) The Annual Feast of Roses was held in October at the Auburn Marriott Hotel & Conference Center. Cambre Prater and Laura Kathryn Chambless made the night possible. They also did an incredible job organizing and making families feel welcome in November at the Homecoming Tea. Two of our very own, Jennifer Stubbs and Kendall Mer-cer, were chosen to compete in the Miss Glomerata Pageant. They looked beautiful on stage, and so did freshman Mari-glenn Golden, who placed fourth runner up in the Miss Fall Rush Pageant. In October, our formal was a home run at Turner Field in Atlanta. Lauren Vercelli did a fabulous job organizing our evening overlooking the field. The good news keeps coming as the Gamma Delta chapter’s very own Mary Kathryn Martin and Hollon McKay were both cho-sen for Auburn University’s Top 5 Miss Homecoming! The entire chap-ter campaigned vigorously throughout the week and on Nov. 3, Hollon was crowned Miss Homecoming 2007. In an amazing election win in the February 2008 SGA elections, Lauren Hayes was elected SGA President, only the second female in Auburn’s history to win this office! Also in February, Meredith Gas-ton was named Auburn’s new Panhel-lenic President. It’s the first time any-one remembers an Alpha Gam holding this office! As we all know, grades are very im-portant in Alpha Gam and once again we were first in grades for ALL Greeks. The firsts just keep coming, as we also won first place in Spirit for all sororities and first place in intra-mural sports. We Alpha Gams have the talent to do it all!

hree cheers for senior Hollon McKay, Au-burn’s Miss Home-

coming 2007. Alpha Gams had their work cut out for them during the Fall 2007 campaigns, with two Alpha Gams in the Top 5: Hollon, a senior in public relations, and Mary Kathryn Mar-tin, a senior in public ad-ministration and Spanish. Hollon’s slogan was “Rais-ing the Bar for Auburn.” Al-pha Gam Brittany Davidson, a senior in apparel merchandis-ing, was Hollon’s campaign manager. Mary Kathryn’s platform was “How sweet it is to be an Au-burn Student.” Her campaign manager was Alpha Gam Lauren Hayes, a junior in public administration and German. Hollon was crowned by Gov. Bob Riley on Nov. 3, 2007, center-field at the Auburn Homecoming game against Tennessee Tech in Jordan-Hare Sta-dium. “I met the most incredible people while campaign-ing,” she says. “I felt undeserving to be among so many people who cared for me, escorted me around town during campaigns, voted for me, wore my T-shirt a week straight and sent me flowers and sweet notes of encouragement. I look back on the ex-perience and all I can do is smile and say a quiet prayer of thanks because it was life-changing.” Hollon will graduate in May 2008. Afterward, she would like to spend six weeks in East Asia doing mission work with Campus Crusade. Later she plans to work in a large city and eventually pursue a master’s degree.

TLauren Hayes Elected SGA President 2008-2009

n Alpha Gam made history again as junior Lauren Hayes was elected SGA President in February

2008. Lauren is only the second female in Auburn’s history to be elected to this posi-tion—the first served 1988-1989, exactly 10 years ago. Lauren’s slogan was “Giving a Small Town a Big Vision.” “I have high goals for the year,” she says, “and I fully intend to create the new pro-grams and initiatives stated in my platform. I am also currently working with the other newly elected officers and my appointed Chief of Staff, Jessica Dewberry, an Alpha Gam as well, to se-

lect executive assistants and cabinet members for the year.” Alpha Gams worked hard on her campaign. Her campaign manager was Mary Kathryn Martin, who was a Top 5 candidate for Miss Homecoming. Lauren had served as Mary Kathryn’s campaign manager during her own campaign. “Campaign week was a

whirlwind,” Lauren says. “Each day I campaigned on campus and spoke at

up to 20 meetings per night. By the end of the week, I was run-ning on adrenaline, caffeine and prayer. “All of the Alpha Gams were so supportive. Whether it was escorting me around campus, bringing me coffee and flowers, or passing out handbills on the Concourse, they helped and encour-aged me every step of the way!” Lauren is double majoring in public administration and German. She will graduate in May 2009 and plans to pursue a master’s degree in public policy.

The Chatterbox Gamma Delta 2008 �0

Dear Sisters, I wanted to give you a little history on how Samantha and I reconnected and what an example our life experi-ences are, concerning sorority sister-hood and how the bond has given both of us an immediate support and sense of unconditional love through the roughest patch of our lives! Claudia Stevens Lee ’9� originally lived across the hall from me in Owen Hall our freshman year. We became friends over daily routines (taping Days of Our Lives, eating entirely tooo much sugar/rice crispy treats/etc. when we were supposed to be studying for final exams) and just giggling the way children giggle at a slumber party. That is my memory of my freshman year in that dorm and the friendships that were built. I pledged Alpha Gam the following year and remained friends with Clau-dia as we both moved into the Alpha Gam dorm on The Hill and then spent the next few years of college together. Samantha was in my pledge class. She grew up in Selma and I grew up

in Montgomery. One of Samantha’s best friends (since her toddler years) is Claudia. We had an immediate tri-angle of connection which, years later, would save my spirit and give me hope when I needed it most. Claudia and I graduated, and the following year Samantha graduated. I went up to Chapel Hill, NC for gradu-ate school and proceeded to work at Duke Medical Center. All of our lives went separate ways. I was diagnosed Feb. 13, 2007. The kind of leukemia I fight is called Chronic Myelogenic Leukemia (CML). It is very slow to grow and very slow to detect. It can take years before it is detectable in the blood. Based on the amount of time that my symptoms started showing up, I probably started getting it around 2005. I started get-ting really sick in 2006. That is when the doctors kept saying I had mono. It was horrible. I ran a fever for a year, and I had sore throats that would not go away, no matter how many different medications I took. My hip bones hurt so badly. The only way I know to explain the bone pain is that it was like putting bones on ice. It was terrible and nothing would relieve the pain. I remember asking my co-workers if their legs also hurt, thinking that maybe the floor we worked on caused bone/muscle pain. I had started coughing in 2005, a very hard cough, that would wake me up at night. By 2006, the cough was unbearable. It would

wake me up in a full sweat, gagging. There was absolutely no stopping the cough. The doctors continued to tell me that this was part of mono or pos-sibly an allergy, and I was given more medications that did not work.

Eventually, I got to the point that I could only sleep and it was almost impossible to breathe or eat. I would walk into my front door from work and collapse on my floor, asleep with my dog. My friends would come to

An Ever-Present Help

Jessica’s Story

Jessica Ginn ’92 and Samantha Thomas Kelly ’91 reconnected nearly a year ago after both were diagnosed with the same form of leukemia. On the following pages are their letters to fellow Gamma Deltas, chronicling their illnesses and explaining the precious, newfound bond between them.

Jessica in August 2006, about six months before her CML diagnosis.

Suddenly, neither of us felt so isolated,

alone or frightened amid the despair that surrounded

both of us.

my house because they knew that if they did not stop at my house I would sleep through the night on the floor. They would force me to eat and drink water and they would carry me to my bed. At one point in the fall of 2006, I recall con-fiding in my best friend that I was scared because I honestly felt so weak that I did not feel like I could breathe. I contin-ued to be told that I had mono. Eventually, in December 2006, I moved to Atlanta from South Carolina to live with my parents because I could no longer take care of myself. We had no idea what was wrong with me. I was 34, and all of my things were thrown in stor-age. I thought my world was ending. I had no idea what was just around the corner. One month after moving into my parents’ home, I saw a doctor and then had a phone call that I was to see a special-ist ASAP, that something was abnormal. So January 2007 is when the cancer chase began. I had no friends who had been diagnosed with cancer or treated for cancer. I felt utterly, completely alone and scared, and no person seemed to be able to understand the gazillion things I was feeling. The time line is blurry for me, but at some point in the spring, my father was having a business dinner with a man named Chris. My father noted that Chris was approximately my age and eventually my father shared that his family had been through an extremely difficult year because his oldest daughter had been diagnosed with leukemia. One sentence stretched to the next and my father and Chris connected the dots that Chris’s wife must have been at Auburn at the same time that I was there. When Chris said his wife’s name (Claudia) my father laughed and shared his memory of moving our things into the freshman dorm in 1990. The two men immediately picked up their cell phones and dialed both of us. Claudia and I reconnected after 16 years! She and I began emailing and catching up on one anoth-er’s lives. She shared the sad news with me that Samantha had (ironically) been diagnosed with the exact same type of Leukemia that I had, exactly three months before my date of diagnosis. I contacted Samantha to tell her that I was writing an in-ternet blog regarding my struggle, walk and determination to heal from the leukemia. She read a couple of the posts and we immediately bonded on a profoundly deep level. We began talking on the phone with one another and suddenly, neither of us felt so isolated, alone or frightened amid the despair that surrounded both of us. Through the trials and thrilling moments of triumph over this past year, Samantha has been the one person on the planet who can totally understand every sensation that has zipped through me. She and I have often been mystified by the fact that what was once an introduction through a pledge class of 50 young women has become a life-line friendship for both of us.

Dear Sisters, On Sept. 5, 2006, I took myself to a drop-in doctor’s clinic because I felt I was coming down with the flu. I knew it was early for the flu, but I also knew something wasn’t right. I was sick—really, really sick. Next thing I know, I am on an ambulance to the hospital with a white blood cell count three times above normal, a tem-perature way above normal and a very scary feeling inside because I could see the doctors’ and nurses’ faces around me. I must have had a million tests, and yet no one could figure out what was wrong with me. They sent me home with the diagnosis of a severe case of bronchitis and possibly West Nile Virus (but that particu-lar test takes a week to get back).The next day, I went to see my general practitioner. He ran more tests and very calmly said he wanted me to see a hematologist. I knew a hematologist was a blood doctor—and I was okay with that. What I didn’t know was this particular hematologist was also an oncologist. As he gently broke that news to me, I freaked out. My doctor explained he just thought I had a bad infection in my bloodstream, but felt this hematologist/on-cologist was more qualified to make that diagnosis. Off I went to meet my new doctor at the Montgomery Cancer Center. Those words scared me to death and still do to this day, every week as I walk through the door. Don’t get me wrong; my doctor, Dr. Da-vidson, is amazing—everything you could possibly want in an oncologist—but who wants an oncologist? And the Montgomery Cancer Center is a top-notch facility with the kindest staff, nurses, and facility; it is clean and as inviting as a cancer center can be but who wants to go to a cancer center? Dr. Davidson ran more tests. I felt self-conscious from all the needle marks on my arms where they had been drawing blood for about two weeks non-stop. He came and sat down with me and matter-of-factly

said that he truly felt I just had an infection in my blood—simple as that. I breathed a sigh of relief and what I heard was I did not have cancer because he said he didn’t think I did…but we would know for sure after the weekend. Talladega was that weekend –October 2006. I felt great. I had been on antibiot-ics for weeks—lots and lots of them. I was a little nervous because I knew something was wrong, but I wasn’t worried because I heard Dr. Davidson say I didn’t have can-cer (which isn’t exactly what he said, but that is what I heard). With my entourage by my side the Tuesday after the weekend, I went back expecting to just to get my antibiotic for my “blood infection” and get on with my life.

Dr. Davidson walked in the door and the look on his face was different than before. He sat in front of me with my chart and placed his hand on mine and said, “You know, I said it myself, you did not appear to be one of the ‘ones.’ I am sorry to have to tell you this, but you have leukemia.” In my mind, I wanted to yell, “Wait, you

just said less than a week ago, you didn’t think I did. You can’t go back and change your mind. There are no take-backs.” (I learned that from my kids.) As I sat there speechless and in com-plete disbelief, he explained to me that I have a rare type of leukemia called chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). The good news was that we did catch it early, which to me meant nothing because I was 34 and had two small children, a promising career, a busy life and no time for this CML junk, no matter when we caught it. He explained there are about 4,000 cases diagnosed a year and most are in men or women over 65 (I’m thinking, great, I am caught in someone else’s body). They have no idea how you get CML, why you get CML, but they do know it is not genetic and it just appears one day. He explained there was a chemo-type, one-of-a-kind pill called Gleevec that I could take daily that would keep the CML under control. I had the only type of cancer you could take oral chemo for. “Whooptie-doo,” I thought to myself. I have leukemia, and you’re trying to tell me I’m lucky that I can take a pill! My nurse practicitioner explained there were a few side effects to the Gleevec—all of which I seemed to have as I started the medication. You could literally take out the drug insert that comes with the bottle and if it was listed, I was going to get it! But the good news was, I didn’t have to have a bone marrow transplant and chemo and

I pray you find your own ‘Jessica’ who understands what you need to help you through your

difficult times.

radiation and I wouldn’t lose my hair. A few months into my treatment, my im-mune system became extremely compro-mised. I started having to take monthly treatments via IV that were supposed to boost my immune system and make me feel great. I started those in March of 2007 and exactly 36 hours after my first six-hour IV infusion, I developed spinal meningitis. The doctor at the ER misdiagnosed my meningitis for bacterial instead of viral af-ter 17 spinal taps, and I was put in quaran-tine for a week in the hospital. During that stay, they discovered that I had a terribly inflamed gall bladder that had to come out via emergency surgery while I was there. I came home with a pic-line in my arm through which I’d administer myself IV antibiotics for two weeks . Just as I had almost recuperated, it was time for gamma treatment No. 2. The problem with not taking the gamma was if I wasn’t taking it, I immediately got a cold, which turned into bronchitis that turned into pneumonia. I was running out of antibiotics that I could take with Gleevec and running out of antibiotics that actually worked on my infections. I started Gamma treatment No. 2 in April and exactly 36 hours later I was back in the hospital with meningitis—again. This happened in March, April, May, June, July and August. We finally decided to stop the treatments. Immediately I got sick again. I chose the lesser of the two evils and took the illnesses. If you have ever had menin-gitis, the pain is indescribable and almost intolerable and I couldn’t do it anymore. I am not exactly sure when my pledge sister Jessica Ginn and I started e-mail-ing, but Claudia Stephens Lee ’9� put Jessica and me in touch. She told me she thought Jessica had the same type of leuke-mia. We started e-mailing and talking and have been so blessed through this journey to have found one another to lean on. Jessica and I were diagnosed within six months of each other, which truly beats all statistics if you ask any doctor. There are only 4,000 people diagnosed each year with CML and she and I are two out of a pledge class of 50! Jessica and I have very different stories, yet they are very much the same. We both have very similar feelings, both physically and mentally, although she has been through so much more than I have physically with other illnesses on top of her CML. We have the same questions and the same hurts and the same tears. Looking back, we weren’t as close at Auburn as I wish we had been, but I know God has given us this second chance. I know I would not have made it through

all of this without her support. We are both so blessed to have such awesome support systems through the closeness of our families and friends, but sometimes it is really hard to talk, listen and understand CML unless you have it. And while we are so grateful to each and every one for the support we have daily, the bond she and I share is special and unique and one that no one else could possibly understand. It is so awesome to pick up the phone or shoot off an e-mail for a question that we need answered. The internet can be a scary place when you are sick; you can find all sorts of crazy things and crazy people. It is so much more comforting to be able to call Jessica and ask if something has ever hap-pened to her that I am experiencing. Every day I thank God that we are back in touch with each other—I just can’t even describe it. Some days she needs me and here lately, I have needed her more. We have each other and we understand what

we are dealing with and we don’t think it’s crazy when we ask one another, “Why us?” Because we all have days like that. To wrap my story up, I have had menin-gitis seven times now (six from the gamma and one from the Sprycell). I am at a point of frustration, anger, pain and confusion. I feel like the poster-child for side-effects. On October 29, the FDA approved drug No. 3, Tasigna, made by the same company (Novartis) who makes Gleevec . I was the first patient in the state of Alabama to start on Tasigna but was cautiously optimistic. The nurses couldn’t answer any questions nor could the doctors. There were very few answers out there. No one knew what to expect but we all knew if something was going to happen, it was going to happen to me. I felt great for about a week and then it went downhill. As with the other two, you could pull the papers that came with the Tasigna and go down the list, and that was me. The good news is all three drugs work on the leukemia, they just don’t like me. So, now we are trying to find that balance. Dr. Davidson has lowered my dosage and we are being optimistic. I am here: a mother of two of the most

beautiful little angelic blondes you have ever seen; blessed by the most wonderful family support system I could ever ask for; working for the most generous, most un-derstanding employers you could ever ask for; living close enough to my immediate family (within 50 miles of each); knowing I have the very best friends both near and far who are all only a phone call away; hav-ing the most amazing doctor and staff right here in Montgomery…I could go on and on. I know that many of you reading have trials and tribulations. I sincerely pray that first and foremost you find God and hand whatever you are dealing with to Him. And second, I pray you find your own ‘Jessica’ who understands what you need to help you through your difficult times. I pray you understand what she needs to help her through hers. She is out there. She could have been the girl in the Zap that you haven’t looked at or thought about in 15 years from Recruit-ment. You remember singing those songs about being Sisters for life; you formed circles and passed candles and chanted chants about Sisterhood and you either didn’t pay attention (I was guilty) or you didn’t really understand the impact of it all until one day something life-changing hap-pened and you needed someone. Guess who was there? Your Sister—with-out questions, without judgment, just there with arms wide open, full of love and understanding. That is what it is all about. It may take you a while to catch on, or you may understand immediately. But know in your heart that the girls you were blessed to be living with for the few years of your life at Auburn are the ones who may save your life one day.

God bless you all,Samantha Thomas Kelly ’[email protected]

Samantha’s daughters, Ann-Seery, now 8, and Camille, now 5.

Every day I thank God that we are back in

touch with each other. I just can’t even describe it. Some days she needs

me and here lately, I have needed her more.
