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.

A series of lasts...

Rebekah is in her last MRI. At least we hope it's her last. It's our final 5 year out of treatment followup. It has been a long haul. Hopefully by the end of the month we will be able to call rebekah cancer free.

In a neat weird sort of way her nurse today is the very very first nurse we ever had when we were trying to figure out what that bump was on rebekah's face almost 6 years ago. Sue, the nurse, set the stage for Rebekah to this day feelng happy and excited to come to the hospital despite all she has been through. It's actually wonderful to have her here. We owe her so much. It's calming to daddy in this tough time.

I have only done this one other time alone, without mommy here and that is tough. From the moment Rebekah was diagnosed we knew that we would get through it together. Even though mommy is not here at the hospital with me right now she is still at home in bed and we are still doing it together. Hold on mommy, we can still see Rebekah cancer free together.
