To the Editor:
Sadie Sprague-Lott (“Social butterfly, Aug. 14) deserves all the credit you gave her, however, her mother Alison Sprague [a childhood friend], is ALIVE. She survived cancer twice — the second time opting for a double mastectomy along with chemo. Many other close relatives have died, But thankfully, Alison is alive and well.
Sadie is amazing and has her sights set on [Connecticut’s] Wesleyan University. I hope your article helps her achieve that goal. Inner-city children, no matter how well they do, tend to get overlooked. Thanks for focusing on all the positive student. Sadie has coped with a maturity beyond words.
