Prayers...

In April, 2010, when Andrew was 2 and a half, a tumor was discovered behind his eye. The tumor was removed, but it was found to be an aggressive cancer. He endured chemo and radiation. He is now four years old. If his cancer returns, he will almost certainly lose his eye, if not his life. He continues to shock me with his energy, his love of life, and his happiness, in spite of everything. Please pray that cancer will never return to his little body. Thank you.

A year clear

Hi Friends,

Just a quick update to let you know that Andrew had an MRI Friday and it was all clear.  We have had one year of clear scans!  There is still a long road ahead, and each MRI is terrifying (so continue to keep us in your prayers).  But we are thankful.  Andrew has been loving preschool and is a very social boy.

Thank you all for your kind words, prayers and comments over the past (almost two years!).  They mean a tremendous amount.

I don't come here often because, honestly, it is painful for me. I am considering starting a new blog, with a distinctly lighter tone. 

Hoping you all are doing well.

Julie :)

  4. Yay for good news!

    If you do start another blog, I'll follow you over there too. This stuff is painful, yes, but also a memorial to all that you went through. You handled it with grace AND fire. That's something to be acknowledged. (((hugs)))
