Haleigh is remembered here, too, as this article from the Boston Globe illustrates:

136 years after his death, the faithful still flock to the grave of a young priest, seeking help

An enduring shrine to hope

Medicare played a key financial role in the case of Terri Schindler-Schiavo and maybe for other disabled and incapacitated adults in the United States today, providing hospice care in such facilities as Woodside Hospice in Pinellas Park, Florida, operated by the Hospice of Florida Suncoast, where Terri died last March 31 of starvation and dehydration, and at the Hospice of Florida Southwest where New York's Ted Stith died earlier this week.

From your link:

While most of the notes at the fence are folded and nearly impossible to read, one letter stands out. Penned on white lined paper and placed in a clear plastic bag attached to the front of the gate with guardian angel clips, it requests prayers for Haleigh Poutre, an 11-year-old Westfield girl who suffered brain damage after a beating. ''Please help Haleigh Poutre," the note reads. ''Let everyone pray for Haleigh and have a Christmas miracle. Let her live and let all her wounds heal and that someone loving will take care of her."

I pray that these prayers are being heard and answered.
