CNN.com!
Hello Everyone!
Before she passed away Eva worked tirelessly to promote 65_RedRoses, and she was thrilled to hear that CNN.com was interested in covering her story. Her mom gave an interview with one of their journalists, and now the article is online.

Also 65_RedRoses won BEST DOCUMENTARY at the 2010 Arizona International Film Festival!!!! Eva would be so excited right now – she wanted the film to be seen throughout the US.
We’re winning them over one state at a time girl.
Much love to Arizona.
These photos are from the recording session that we had for 65_RedRoses where Eva came into the studio to do some narration.
I’ll leave you with the lyrics from a song called BETWEEN TWO LUNGS which Eva loved. The Artist is Florence and the Machine, and thanks to Bethany for passing these words along to me the other day…
Now all the days of begging
The days of theft
No more gasping for a breath
The air has filled me head-to-toe
And I can see the ground far below
I have this breath
And I hold it tight
And I keep it in my chest
With all my might
I pray to God this breath will last
As it pushes past my lips
Love love love,
Team 65_RedRoses

Eva’s Story make’s it to CNN
I saw the article today on CNN.com. It drew me into the blog, and I have been there all day. It is such a moving experience that Eva shared with others. I wish I had more time to explain the things I felt and what it opened up inside my heart, but I should probably just keep this simple. I live in one of the suburbs surrounding Cleveland, OH, and was wondering if there is anything I could do to help get her story heard in the states?
And God bless Eva, her family and friends.
I am so happy that this finally made it to CNN, Eva has been my inspiration as I struggle to live from a lung disease called Alpha 1, I am waiting for a double lung transplant with not a lot of time. I have followed Eva on her Blog, I still listen to her daily, She is with me now. Lung disease sucks the LIFE out of you. I want to see this so bad on TV, Please lets do it for our lady in red EVA…she lives on in so many of us.:) LET MAKE CF STAND FOR CURE FOUND! Kathy Hogan USA MA.
