The Day Has Arrived
Thursday, April 17, 2014 is the day our family has been waiting for and working towards for months. It is the day that our mighty warrior "Christian" receives his first dose of Xolair, a relatively new injectable drug that is used to treat moderate to...
Seek and Find
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with...
Numb
My mighty warrior, Christian, is doing so well. He's been to school 30 days in a row and has not had any bleeds that have kept him down. He has endured a couple of bleeds that we were able to control at home. This has been a huge victory. But...
My Other Mom
Way, way back when my husband and I were newly married, I had issues with my mother-in-law. We just didn't get along. My mother would fuss at me and tell me, "Cazandra, she is going to be here long after I am gone, you need to develop a relationship with her!" She...
I Stopped For A Moment

I’ve Never Liked Rollercoasters

Who Do You Talk To Most Often?
Is it your best friend…your spouse…a family member? When I started to think about this question I realized that the person I talk to most often is..... me! I will admit that more often than not the things I say to myself are not very kind. Doubt creeps in,...
Twenty Days
I never dreamed we would make 20 days of school in a row.But there is something else that is absolutely amazing. "Christian" has been struggling with his fear of needles for quite some time. It was to the point where my husband and I had to take him in to the HTC once...
And Another Week Passed…..
Fifteen days of school in a row! Well, of course that was almost too much to believe. Friday night, as we entered the auditorium to watch my oldest son perform the lead role in "Shrek", my "Christian's" knee started up. I immediately took him...
I Always Thought I’d Be A Band Mom
I remember the day I opened my oboe case when I was in 5th grade. My sister's band director (Mrs. Dempsey) heard I made good grades and she wanted me to play the oboe. I had no idea how that would change my life. I took my first private lesson and I was hooked! My...
