She is feeling well and chomping at the bit to recover and start running and enjoy life like any other 22yr old. Lets perk up this young ladies life with prayers and some greetings. Lets let Ann, Tommy, Tina and sister Lisa know that they are not alone during this ordeal. Ann's address is 314 Lopax Road, Apt. E 10, Harrisburg, Pa. 17112.
