Holed Up
Today has been a wonderful day. My Christian and I have been "holed up" in a hotel room in Albuquerque. He has an MRI in the morning, so we stayed over the weekend. My husband and Lance came up and we hung out and had a great time.They left this morning, so he could...
Meltdown
Yesterday was not pretty. My Christian had an ankle bleed Wednesday night, so he wasn't walking and I had to stay home to work on Thursday. I had to get both of us ready to travel to Albuquerque for his treatments Thursday evening and Friday. My Lance is struggling in...
Oozing with purpose
As I am in my early forties, I have struggled with many things. I'll admit, I've had a bit of a midlife crisis. But the one thing I often question is, "What is my purpose in life?"I've come up with many things: to be a good mother to be a good wife to bring as much as...
Loneliness

Being Called

Wonderful News!
I am so excited! Our hematologist called today and Christian's inhibitor levels are the lowest they have ever been! It looks like the chemo is working!All of the trips, all of the money, all of the waiting, all of the crying and doubt about whether or not we made the...
4 Years Ago
4 years ago today, my life changed. I gave birth to my second son, Christian. For four years my husband and I tried to conceive (our oldest son is 10 years older than Christian). When we finally gave up trying, there he was!To say we were utterly amazed that we were...
My Christian
My Christian has been having a rough time. He's had a knee bleed and an ankle bleed back to back within the past two weeks. It's been very painful for him. To see him crawling and limping just hurts my heart. I spent Wednesday morning with him...from midnight until 4...
