Amelia Lincoln watches from inside the door as her husband, James Patterson, plants the garden beds in the front yard of their home in East Bethel. Lincoln, who is battling leukemia is forbidden from handling the soil. A bone-marrow registry drive will be held Tuesday, July 19 in Randolph Center to aid in finding a potential match for a stem cell transplant, which Lincoln will need after an exhaustive round of chemotherapy.
