Welcome to Stanton's web page. We have created this page to keep our friends and family informed of Stanton's battle with Neuroblastoma. Stanton was diagnosed in January 2003 with Stage IV Neuroblastoma. He had 6 rounds of chemo, surgery, stem cell transplant, radiation, and 9 rounds of Accutane. He had been classified as "No evidence of disease" until April 15, 2004.

FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS SWEET BABY!
February 14,2001-February 13,2005
In lieu of flowers we would be honored to have memorial donations sent to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or Ronald McDonald House of Memphis. There websites are on the bottom of the page.
I have also added Michael Waltrip's website back to the bottom, you can go there daily and vote on him for your favorite driver. Do this for Stanton!
This is a poen written for by Trish for Stanton from Emma Grace Forever, My Friend
Forever is God’s light you let shine through Brightly beaming to everyone you knew.
Forever you taught us how to race to win You crossed the ultimate finish line with Jesus at hand.
Forever is our love like none that compares God gave it to you and you so freely shared.
Forever we’ll meet the lives you have touched Sharing God’s love whom you love so much
Forever is the joy you’ve given to me God gave through you for the world to see.
Forever is our love that grew and grew It started the very day I met you.
Forever our smiling laughter echoes the halls Or silly quarrels that amounted to nothing at all.
Forever I’m blessed to share this journey in part As you are forever etched in my heart.
Forever goes on in this circle without end Just as forever I’m blessed, you’re my best friend.
Forever you’re in this heart of mine You, my Stanton, are my Forever Valentine.

Friday, September 5, 2014 2:40 PM CDT Wow!! I cannot believe how long it has been since I have been on this page documenting my feelings. I still check in occasionlally just never seem to have anything to say. Today is really no different. Life goes on, changes and I have to learn to live and chagne with it. Jeff and I are dong good. He got a new black lab puppy that is keeping us on our toes. I don't know if any of you remember Stanton and Emma Grace each had stuffed labs and Stanton took his everywhere. He named it Jaboo, and I have no idea where the name came from but we now have a living breathing, chewing, hyper but bery smart Jaboo. I am sure most of you are more concerned about Hayden. He is doing great! He has graduated from college and also has a Master's Degree. He lives in Monroe which is about an hour and a half from where we live so it is not so bad. He is working in politics which he was born to do. Jeff and I could not be more proud of the man he has become. I sometimes sit and think how blessed I am that God thought I was worthy of being the mom to 2 amazing sons. They are both truly my heros! It is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month just in case you didn't know. I hate that this month kind of gets shoved to the side while they start putting out the pink. Don't get me wrong, I love the pink and support any kind of cancer awareness I would just love to see childhood cancer get the same recognition. It is hared to believe that it has been 10 years since we have been at St. Jude. It seems like just yesterday and very selfishly I would go bcak to that time in a heart beat. People always said "it gets easier". I guess my question at this point is when? Yes, I don't cry every day and curl up in bed. But yes, there is not a day that goes by that I dont' think of my sweet baby.The triggers are to numerous to name and some of them hit without any warning. Those are the hardest because no one seems to understand. God continues to hold me up when I feel like I can no longer stand on my own. My family is awesome and I have no idea what I would do without my nieces and nephews. They truly are my world. I guess I have given you evoungh information today. I have been thinking lately of starting an online journal but I am not sure what format or where to start. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks as always for your continued love and support
