Teri and B's Blog

We chronicle Teri's harrowing journey that began with a shock & awe diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia on 2/10/10. Her path has traversed multiple rounds of chemotherapy, remission, fruitless worldwide donor search, relapse, near demise from a superbug, resuscitation by an autologous (self) transplant, birth of her first grandchild Jack, and a mismatched haploidentical/umbilical cord transplant on 2/15/11 and myriad complications. This is her story as fought valiantly to the end.

Canada, anyone?

Friends last night: "How much room do you have in Vancouver?"

Me: "It's a small condo, but I'll put bunk beds in. Come on up!"

Teri Li Education Awards 2016

The Teri Li Awards in educational excellence for early pediatric gastroenterology faculty across the US & Canada continue in their 5th year with double outstanding awardees.

The official presentation took place at the 5th World Congress of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition held in Montreal in early October.

Thanks to many of you, we have raised over $50,000 for this endowment. And as a result, we will be able to offer educational grants for the first time next year.

Teri continues to support education in 'youngsters'.
