Hi Friends, Thank you for all of your prayers and thoughts!  I truly believe they have brought us strength and courage.  Ever since Andrew got out of the hospital a couple of weeks ago he has been quickly getting better!  He is on oxygen, but is slowly using it less and less.  He is writing… Read more »

It’s been a wonderful couple of weeks.  I went home to Dallas to meet adorable baby Brooks (my cousin’s 4 month old little boy), visit my grandmother in her new nursing home and spend quality time with my family and friends.  Going through everything we’ve gone through over the last year has made me so… Read more »

Last week was a breath of fresh air.  My sweet dad came in from Dallas to drive Andrew to M.D. Anderson pretty much the entire week.  This gave Ellie a normal schedule and me some alone time to get rejuvenated.  When I was little I would play Barbie’s most of the day with friends and… Read more »

Hi Friends! I’ve missed telling you stories about my crazy life J   I’ve been out of cyber world for a couple of weeks for good reason.  I’ve been enjoying a NORMAL (somewhat) life with my family!  I haven’t been this happy in a long time.  We had three weeks away from M.D. Anderson while… Read more »

Holy Moly! I seriously don’t even know where to begin.  I’ve spent a few days rolling around ideas in my head of how to express my full gratitude to the amazing community of Cuero, TX (aka fighting gobblers) and everyone who helped and participated in the benefit this weekend.  I’ve come to the conclusion that… Read more »
