OUR JOURNEY

This is our family's journey- the story of our daughter's fight with cancer. Along the way, we will have some tears, lots of love, and even more prayers going up to heaven. We know that our Heavenly Father is aware of us. We know that he will help us fight, fill our hearts with peace, and send angels to give us aid. We send praise to HIM. Join us in this battle. This battle of courage, determination, and most of all faith in God that all is well and will be well.
This is where I will record my feelings- raw, real, and unfiltered. Welcome all.

Bumpity, Bump.

We hit a road bump today.
Just a little one.
Not to worry.
Right after Evalette's chemo,
(her daily chemo is done for this first 5 week induction;
it was a muscle shot and a push chemo today)
she took a nap.
I just kept having a feeling to check on her.
I did and sure enough she was very warm.
Nurse took her temp and it was 102.
In one hour she went from normal to 102.
Guess that is what happens when you don't have white blood cells to fight off infections.
So they did blood cultures, started an antibiotic, and started fluids.
They aren't sure if she got a fever from the chemo, if it is an infection, or what,
but after we saw a million doctors,
got some meds,
started the fluids,
and rocked in our chair for hours
her fever went down, she sat up,
and ate some squash.
She has been fine since.
Already over that bump
and still moving forward.
Fingers and toes crossed
that next week we are homeward bound!
Thank you for your prayers and good wishes...
we are blessed.

  1. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you and your sweet family, infact, you're on my mind so much that I had a dream about you last night :) I have something for you and Evalette, I really wanted to bring it up to you, but I'd have to find an afternoon to do it without Ryelyn. We are continuing to pray for you guys, xoxo
