For the Record

Wow! Exciting evening. Michael and I ran over to the community garden and then to the Duckpond for a final 5 mile training run; Sibel got a surprise visit from Cora-Ann Mihalik from Fox/Channel 9 who wanted to interview us for a piece on Strides For Sylvie. Fast forward, quick showers and the Hughes family was camera-ready for our up close and personal interview.

Cora-Ann had hoped to get shots of the family hanging out, playing and having fun but I pretty much assured her that Sylvie would either a). think she was a doctor or nurse and be psycho b). be so tired and therefore psycho. Sylvie lived up to that! I like how when Michael answered Cora-Ann's first question, he said that he owned a natural food store in the East Village. Michael has officially graduated media training 101. Well done. He's back on the home page of Forbes again with part two of his interview with grocery tycoon John Catsimatidis.

Cora-Ann asked us a lot about our experiences as parents enduring a child's illness and of course, about Strides For Sylvie.

Check it out tonight at 10 pm on both Channel 9 and also Fox.
