This is a public "diary" of a family whose little girl started a battle with inoperable cancer in April 2005. In December 2007 our house burned down. And in September 2009 Mommy was diagnosed with a terminal disease (a genetic form of ALS) that took her to Heaven in July, 2011, leaving Daddy and two young girls to make it on their own. Over several years of ups and downs, you will get into our hearts, minds and souls as we share joys and sorrows. It can sometimes be very difficult to read. We hope it is also uplifting. Please find joy in what you read here.

Goods and Bads

Mommy and the girls are off at clinic.  Pray for positive tests and a short day.  

Last night was really rough.  Again Rebekah seems to be waking up every 15 minutes to an hour screaming.  We are not sure what it is that is bothering her but having mommy with her is about the only thing that calms her down.  A good friend suggested that it could be an ongoing part of her withdrawals – could be.  

You would think that we would be getting used to having goods and bads all together but I am not sure that we are.  There are so many little things, little glimpses of joy in her eyes, little moments of playful child, etc. that are then followed by her being hurt, crying and only wanting to lie in bed that it is difficult.  If anything, though, we have learned to really REALLY rejoice over the beautiful moments whether they be 3 seconds or 3 hours long.  

We thank you all for the support and prayer that you have been providing.  It truly is the only thing that keeps us going.  Please pray for strength and rest for mommy and daddy as well as continued healing for Rebekah.
