Great Story

You can tell the experience of a writer by the stories they write. Suzanne Russell of The Home News Tribune does an excellent job with her "Today's a Miracle" story. She captures the feeling and emotion of a young girl battling a disease and celebrating life with a party. Ms. Russell has been with the newspaper for years and her skill as a writer shows with this story. She makes you want to reach out and help this young girl without making the story all about the disease she is fighting. She then shows the outpouring of support from the community to help the girl.

Her story captures the beauty of the moment and makes us all stop for a moment. There is little more you can want from a reporter then to make you stop and think.
