Hey Mama Perez and Tift-Perez clan,

Your fear of the beast is not only understandable, but certainly expected. I hate the irony of the scan date - it's very scary to recall that awful diagnosis day. I know I will never forget it or our very first conversation as I scheduled your consult with Dr. T. It broke my heart (and still does) that you had to enter the painful life of uncertainty that afflicts all cancer patients and their families.

If love alone could cure Miss M. forever, there is no doubt that she would already be clear for life. I pray every day that she remains cancer-free and that all of you could be blessed with worry-free days. I have just contacted several prayer chains who will dedicate extra time for prayer on Monday. The scans WILL be clear!!

I love you all so much and wish there was more I could do to ease this burden for you. Just know that you are always in my heart and thoughts and that prayers are non-stop for all of you. Grandma xoxoxo

Hey Miss M,
You have faced more tough choices in your 14 years on
this earth than most people deal with in a lifetime.
I do wish this were not the case, but I have the most
confidence in your ability to make the best choice for
you in this situation.

Your Christmas present is en route to MN and requires
some dancing, so I am pleased that dancing is on your
must have do list for the future of your leg! Although
I recall some great dancing at Cousin Rob's wedding
and you had no use of your leg then! You never cease to
amaze me...

I am pleased to hear that school is going so well!
Sounds like just a great fit!

Merry Merry Christmas to you!!!

Miss you!

Love.

Hey Tift-Perez clan,

Thanks for the update on Miss M. NEVER, EVER apologize for your feelings, and no one would EVER consider any of you as "weak". My God, you go through hell and back on a regular basis - of course there are tears! This has been an incredibly difficult battle for years for all of you, but especially for our champ. The decisions you have to make should never have to be made. It's unfair and it sucks!

For those of us lucky enough to accompany you on this journey, you all continue to amaze and inspire us every day. Lean on those of us who love you, especially during these times of difficult choices.

I love you so much and would move mountains if I could to make this easier for you. Keep believing, keep laughing, keep crying, keep feeling any and all of your feelings! Trust that the strength you need will be there when you need it and trust that you are never, ever be alone on this journey.

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.

For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

Life in this world can look so bleak at times. But the victory is ours through Christ! Put your trust in Him! Praying!
1 Corinthians 15:54-57 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Psalms 34:6-10 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles. The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

Christ died that we might have hope and salvation through Him. Praying so right now!
Isaiah 53:3-5 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Stopping by to let you know I'm continuing to pray.
Ephesians 3:14-19 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Praying right now!
Romans 8:15-18 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

This is the second half of the hymn "Abide with Me." The words are so comforting. Know that I'm still here praying!

5. Thou on my head in every youth didst smile,
And though rebellious and perverse meanwhile,
Thou hast not left me, oft as I left Thee.
On to the close, O Lord, abide with me.

6. I need Thy presence every passing hour;
What but Thy grace can foil the Tempter's power?
Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, oh, abide with me!

7. I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless;
Ills have no weight and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still if Thou abide with me.

8. Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes,
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies.
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me!

Hymns have been going through my head all day for some reason. This one is long so I'm only doing the first half but oh it's special. Continuing to pray so very hard!

1. Abide with me! Fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide.
When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me!

2. Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
Change and decay in all around I see.
O Thou, who changest not, abide with me!

3. Not a brief glance I beg, a passing word,
But as Thou dwell'st with Thy disciples, Lord,
Familiar, condescending, patient, free.
Come not to sojourn, but abide with me.

4. Come not in terror, as the King of kings,
But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings;
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea.
Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me.

Hello Miss M and Crew!
Great news on your new school plans. You have some big shoes to fill in
walking the halls as your momma and dad,
but I have no doubt that you will
succeed and make a fantastic lasting
impression on your teachers and the clergy.

As for the other news, well that
just stinks but know that your extended
family out here in Beantown is always
staying prayed up for you.

Sounds like you are having an amazing summer
and one that you deserve!
The summer is going by too fast,
but we have had some lovely days and
continue to be amazed at Kyle's new tricks...
he finally started walking two weeks ago and now is getting quite good at it and he talks a lot too.

We are sending big squeezes in your direction!
Take Care,

You do not know me but I am an eighth grader living in Forest Lake(u can c that by my information:) but i found your web site as a link on a different carinbridge site that i was currently checking on. When I saw your link i was brought to your page and was astounded and amazed at what you have had to go through at such a young age. Your will to live and determination is unbelievable and deeply moving. You are such a beautiful girl!! in every picutre I have saw your face glows with hope and life. What made your "journey" very personal for ME was when i actually saw you at that Twins game a week or so ago. I was looking up @ the screen and I saw you up on the jumbotron...definitely something i never would have expected! I was like omgosh!! I think that's Maryah!! Anyways I know it is quite strange to receive a message from a complete stranger but i was compelled to write you a comment becuase of the incredible imprint you have left in my heart. I have been praying for you and your family as well, I know you will never give up trying or lose heart in any predicament that comes your way.

"My Hope is Built on Nothing Less"
by Edward Mote, 1797-1874

1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

3. His oath, His covenant, and blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When every earthly prop gives way,
He then is all my Hope and Stay.
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand.

Hey Maryah,
That sucks about all the pornography links, but hey I wanted to tell you to not take it too personally, half of the "people" who post pornography links are actually bots. I'm not exactly sure how it works but I know a lot of sites are bombarded with that stuff, and not just pornography links, many are also links to buy viagara, etc. That's why a lot of sites require you to type in some text in a little box, that proves to the site that you're a human and not a bot. Anyway hope you're feelin great, take care.

I am sorry you are getting nasty messages...not cool whoever you are. Don't people
have something better to do?
Anyways, I updated your picture book. I put the other picture on the cover, but it didn't look right...so,
I changed the cover picture to my 2nd
favortie...It just looked a lot better.
Hope you don't mind...otherwise I can
get rid of the book and just use one picture...I like the
book because for the people that have never met you, I think
it gives them an idea of just how wonderful you are and
how we live life to the fullest each and everyday!
It was great seeing you tonight. I am sorry your chonies (sound it out, you'll know what
I'm talking about) secret
got out to your mother and father. I would just like to
say for the record, I was NOT with her when she bought those. I let Allie and Ry
shop by themselves for 20 minutes
and that's where they went...learned my lesson on that one!
See you soon! Thanks for making me laugh once again.
You look cute in that tutu...maybe you should wear it when
we go out to eat next...that would be cute.

2 Corinthians 4:15-18 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

Be comforted by the fact that God is praying for you!
Romans 8:26-28 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Maryah, Mom & Dad,
Happy 14th Birthday (belatedly) and Happy This Moment you are in! Celebrating you, your courage and tenacity and your Warrior Spirit.
May the love and support of all of us out here in cyberspace empower you to keep fighting harder than ever.
May you eat those rich protien foods your body's needing to enable it to fight harder. May you kick this cancer's rear all the way across the galaxy and out into another entirly different universe! May the power of the kick knock it sensless, and the shock of it loosen even the tiniest remnant of cancer and shoot every last bit into the sun, to sizzle & evaporate instantaneously!
And with all the cancer gone, may healing balm flood your entire being, gently bringing forth everything every part of you needs, in order to restore itself.
May your summer be filled with joyous laughter, impish pranks, amazing explorations and a bit of intelectual stimuli, so you'll bound into the next school year with such vim and vigor that they just won't know what hit them.
Wishing you a good day.
One of many lifting you up without ceasing.

Ms. Birth Day Girl- Maryah Terese Emerson-Tift - I fondly remember our 1st meeting 14 years ago today. Your mom called me and told me you had "finally" arrived. I made my way to the hospital. The door to your mom's room was closed so I knocked, your dad came to the door, and said that your mom was feeding you - I didn't care and I pushed my way past your dad to meet you. I could see your dark hair upon entering the room. Your mom "introduced" me as Maryah Terese and I remember holding you and just falling in love with this little person. Now, 14 years later, you have blossomed into this beautiful young woman and as I write this, I am thinking how so many MORE people have fallen in love with you over the years. I wish you a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY Ryah! You are so very special in many people's eyes!! Love you!! - Carrie

I may have been cussing up a storm if it came. We are going to our cabin near Green Bay this weekend to celebrate Mother's Day a little early (I have to work on MD), so I will think of you having fun while I am taking a walk in the woods. Spring seems to be here again today. Be well.

Still praying!
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Hi Maryah (and family)!

I am so glad you went to DC and enjoyed it! It's always good to read your journal and catch up on what you've been up to. You really have a full life!!

I do know the Moreno family from school - I had two of Aleena's siblings in my class at Adams. They are an amazing family and we are praying for them. I am so amazed by their family and yours - the strength and love that all of you reflect is wonderful.

Stay tough Miss M.

I found this poem on another caringbridge site...it so
reminded me of you....so, I'm passing it on.

Can you but feel my sorrow, can you feel my pain,
or even see my tears falling like rain,
know of the sickness and of the strain,
all of this I must endure again and yet again.

All of the drugs, the chemicals too,
the treatments I go though,
from all those injections,
come bruises often black and blue.

Now I look so different, now often I look strange,
for in this battle my body must change,
to defeat this cruel killer,
my life I must re-arrange.

Cells in my body are me trying to kill,
to win this great fight I must have the will,
your help and love is all that I ask,
to get me though this onerous task.

Every day and every night,
against this cancer I must battle and fight,
while I cry and weep,
this single thought I keep.

Reclaim my life, reclaim my right,
keeps me going night after night,
to live and to love as is my right,
I will not surrender, I will always fight.

Maryah - I will ALWAYS help you fight....I LOVE YOU!!!

Hi Sweetie,
So glad you had fun in D.C. We were there for our honeymoon many many years ago. I still think it is one of my favorite places in the country. It makes you feel so in touch with our country seeing all the history. Sounds like you are going to glide right through this chemo and on again with life. If this cancer thinks it can slow you down it doesn't know who they are dealing with. Love to all !!

and despite blazing sunshine and warm temps
throughout the hills of Newton--
I finished relatively strong!
Just before it was time to head out onto the course
I pulled out my prayer card from you and knew
what I was setting out to do was far bigger than myself!
Thank you for following along yesterday..I could hear
your cheers--especially by the Hotel Commonwealth!
We got 26.2 miles closer to a cure!!!
Today, I am at work--nursing some sore muscles,
blisters and sunburned patches of skin--
but it was so worth it!!!

I love you all!!!
Thanks again!!!

Romans 8:26-28 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This hymn has alwas been very special to me. Always makes me cry, too.
Praying right now!
"I Know that My Redeemer Lives"
by Samuel Medley, 1738-1799

1. I know that my Redeemer lives;
What comfort this sweet sentence gives!
He lives, He lives, who once was dead;
He lives, my ever-living Head.

2. He lives triumphant from the grave,
He lives eternally to save,
He lives all-glorious in the sky,
He lives exalted there on high.

3. He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.
He lives my hungry soul to feed,
He lives to help in time of need.

4. He lives to grant me rich supply,
He lives to guide me with His eye,
He lives to comfort me when faint,
He lives to hear my soul's complaint.

5. He lives to silence all my fears,
He lives to wipe away my tears
He lives to calm my troubled heart,
He lives all blessings to impart.

6. He lives, my kind, wise, heavenly Friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives, I'll sing;
He lives, my Prophet, Priest, and King.

7. He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives, and I shall conquer death:
He lives my mansion to prepare;
He Iives to bring me safely there.

8. He lives, all glory to His name!
He lives, my Jesus, still the same.
Oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
"I know that my Redeemer lives!"

Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

When I was thinking about today this hymn came to mind immediately so I wanted to share it. Know that I'm praying!
1. There is a fountain filled with blood
Drawn from Immanuel's veins,
And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains.

2. The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.

3. Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more.

4. E'er since by faith I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die.

5. When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song
I'll sing Thy power to save.

Today as I woke to sunshine through the windows, I smiled and thought how blessed I am with my family! As I lay there thinking of each person in my life, I felt my heart swell. How can one be so lucky to have such love surrounding them every day??! Yesterday. as I turned 40, many loved ones asked me how I felt? I truely feel as though I am the luckiest person alive!! My sister showed up in my driveway...just because it was my birthday! Your mom took a day of her incredibly busy, stressed life for me! Your dad arranged a bit of his schedule to make that happen as well. As did Dan and all your siblings. I went to lunch with her, A. Kelly, and A. Jane. Then evening with U. James, Dorian, and Shayna! How special is that!!! So I guess what I'm rambling about is that in this great big life...long or short...all that matters is the love we share with one another. I am so humbled by the love you give to me and am proud to be a part of this family!!!

You are my superwoman! You are all that I wish I was at age 13. You have integrity and grace, you have pride in yourself and in your family (even though we are goofy and embarrass you sometimes). Thank you for all you have taught me. Without you I wouldn't be "Ma" or the woman that I have become because of you. I know that you have endured much, you were just nine years old when this all started. It seems just yesterday but yet I look at you and you are a young lady, a mature and vibrant young lady with so much aspiration and joy! I appreciate all that you go through each day and still rise to the challenge of the next day! I am proud to be your "Mama" and I am proud of who you have become.
"I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean, whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance and when you get the choice to sit it out or dance...
I HOPE YOU DANCE!!!!!

Have you had any glimpses of spring yet?
It is in the 20's here, and as I type
this there are snow flurries. We are in the
top five snowiest winters on record for
Milwaukee. Give your mom a hug for me,
and tell Megan I love the photo album.
Keep on fighting the fight.

Dear Maryah & Moma Rachel, Champion-Diva-Dragon-Slayers,
Here's praying you can dance faster than these ole dragons can grow!
Point is marvelous. I danced ballet since I was 3 (or so I'm told...I feel I've always danced). Occassionally today I'm able to defy the odds, get out of my lil ole w.chair and do a spin or two....and my heart always dances, sings and Celebrates life. Sounds like we have similar spirits! So: You go girl!
I will picture you dancing, as I lift you up in Prayer-Song, with healing balm swirling about you, filling every breath you breathe, filling your lungs, going down to your toe-nails and back again (grin), with the cancer leaving thru every exhale!
Glad the fashion show was awesome. Sounds like you've got some incredible girlfriends. Hooray!
Carrying you with me thru my day.
Much Love and Warm Suppot,

Psalms 116:1-5 I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live. The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

Sorry I've been away from the computer for a few days. Still been praying but wanted to share such special verses that remind us all that much more importantly the Holy Spirit Himself is praying for each of us perfectly according to His Will.
Romans 8:26-27 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

Hey kiddo, I hear you and the family have gone through some tough times lately. Not to complain, but I have too, not as bad as yours. I have been out touch for awhile but Penny keeps me informed. I had an auto accident in August and suffered a brain injury. I keep praying for you all and hope there is a brighter side of things but I know it is hard. Every day God lets you remain with us on this earth, is another day your whole family can be grateful for and have a reason to wake up in the morning and be thankful. There is a little church in Cambridge, IA that has you on their prayer list every week. I was down there to see my sister last week and had to give the congregation an update on your condition. This is just another drop in the bucket of prayers that are said for you everyday, which makes the bucket keep over flowing with hope and love. Just never give up the faith no matter the pain, I haven't.

Dear Maryah and family!
I don't know if you remember me but we met in the hospital in the fall of 2005. I am Abby Szott's mom. I just want you all to know that you are amazing and the love of Christ is so evident in your family. Thank God we have His love and His new mercies each and every day. Abby lived her life guided by four amazing principles, Faith, Endurance, Courage, and Hope. Maryah, I see you exemplify these characteristics, as well. I am praying for total healing for you from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet through the master of all physicians, our Lord.
Love to you!

Hey there Maryah!

I'm glad to hear that you are able to make people "randomly laugh" as your mom says. It is always good to get a good chuckle in every now and again.

Well, as promised I am emailing you with some good news... On Tuesday morning at 9:05 am Maximus Anthony Tillman entered the world weighing 9 lbs. 5 oz. and was 22 inches long.

I have to tell you, Maryah, you were the one who kept me going during labor. When things got tough near the end of labor, Jason, my husband, reminded me of all that you have gone through over the past four years. I looked at him and said quietly, "yes, Maryah has gone through so much... I know that if she can endure what she has endured, then I can do this."

So, in ending this lengthy entry, I just want to thank you for being so strong... you are a wonderful example to anyone going through difficult situations.

All my best to you!

Sorry to hear you had to

this message tonight from the
comfort of your own living room.
If not, I hope that they are
pumping you up so you are
feeling much better.

I am happy to hear that
the rest of your family is on
the mend. Kyle has been fighting
the same ear infection for 3 weeks
and that has been no fun--but that
has just involved some sleepless
nights and several trips to the
pediatrician---not all that yucky
stuff that comes with the flu.
I cannot imagine miss Mo out of
commission--must have been awfully
quiet in Cottage Grove!

Sending my love and hugs to everyone.
You are a superstar...

Maryah,
Hi, it's alli rutman. Sorry I haven't talked to you in so long, I have been really busy with school this year. I am devastated to hear about the new spots and all that you have to go through again when we all thought it was done. I cannot tell you how much you mean to me and how sorry I am that this has happened to you. Each night before bed, I pray for you and hope that you will be alright. In my head, however, I know you will be because I know you have the perseverance to pull through. I have faith in you and I know you can do it.
Seeing you on stage everytime we got to dance together reassured me that you were strong and strived for what you wanted. I love that about you and always have. I want to dance with you again as soon as this is all done and over with. I cannot wait to see your shining face on that stage showing the entire world that you can dance your heart out no matter what.
I hope all goes well at the hotel and that you come home soon.
Know that I am always thinking of you.
I LOVE YOU

Hi you! I haven't written in a while, but that doesn't mean I am not thinking about you! You always inspire me. I love reading the notes from your little sisters. Tell them to keep writing. I miss you, and Mama!

Miss M,
I went out for a run at dawn this morning
and as the sky woke up with shades of pink and blue
and the freshly fallen snow clung to the trees,
I felt a wave of peace come over me as
I thought about you and your smiling face.

You amazingly provide hope and joy
to those who love you,
when we are the ones who are supposed
to be comforting you as you
embrace this cancer journey once again.

I wish you a beautiful bright day.

Love and prayers,
Cari

Hi Sweetie and all...I am no longer working and just now got internet access at home. I was out of the loop with your recent news. I pray for you all the time but now I am puting it in to high gear. Another bump in the road for you to get over. You will get over it. The new pics were so cute. Little Nicolas is getting big. I want to meet him someday. This summer I am going to drag you and your family over to swim and have just a fun day in the sun. Take care honey and know we are praying very often and hard for your quick recovery.

Maryah-
You have faced so many things with the grace and poise of a true lady. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers as you begin to go into serious "battle mode" once again. Remember- chemo and radiation can take many things from you- but it can't take away an attitude like you have!

We're keeping you close in our prayers and thoughts each and every day, Maryah. You have a most amazing, beautiful strength, which we surely know is the Holy Spirit, whose presence is continual in you. That presence is the light you shine for all others to see. Your light, your wisdom and the confidence way beyond your young years provides the truth and the proof through all this "noise" and confusion that you have a very special "mission" in this earthly life that continues. We believe in your mission and we believe you are one very special young lady. Stay strong, sweetie. You have the power of legions of prayer warriors lifting you up each and every day.

Look to the Lord for strength, whatever the future holds! Oh how I'm praying!
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Driving down Snelling Avenue going to the State Fair to
try out for the talent show....I have you, Allie, and Ali in the backseat
of my car...Ali starts flirting with OLD men
as we drive down the street..blowing kisses and waving
at them...you helped her, adding your kisses and waving
at the old guy. I've never been so embarresed...and I don't think
I've laughed that long since then. Not only did you
make me turn bright red on the way there...the ride home
was just as entertaining...I learned that if I have you 3 in
my back seat again....I'm putting tinted windows in my car,
so I don't cause an accident with laughing so hard.
So, wanna go on a car ride soon?? Love ya.

Oh I don't even have words. And can't put into words how hard I'm still praying!
Hebrews 6:17-20 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath: That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

Well, where do I begin. The past four years have been a real roller coaster ride. Down the Up for 7 months, then down, then up, then down again, then up on a nice long high, until December rolled in, and the coaster came crashing down one more time. Now we FROG, Staying Prayed Up and climb that hill one more time, and see where it might take up. We have all been on this ride together, and we will continue to be with the Tift/Emerson/Perez families.

the money so to speak.
But you and the family have such faith and strength to see you through this next round. We are all with you.
As your dad wrote of your Nuna's advise, the best that can be given. Enjoy the little things, the beauty of each day and the nearness of the ones you love and who love you. And be happy for each day, good or bad.
You are always in my thoughts and prayers each day. I shall continue with extra power.
All my love to you and the family.
Know you hold a very special place in my heart.
Love always

Job 19:25-27 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

Hello Maryah,

I am happy to read that your marrow is clear of the cancer. I have been trying my best to keep up with what is going on your way.

I hope that these treatment sessions kick cancer's you-know-what, and that you will once again rise like the trooper you are.

I must say, you are my strength from day to day. For today, I am 39 weeks pregnant and battling with sciatica in both of my hips. Whenever I lie in bed at night, trying my best to roll over, I have to admit, I sometimes feel that it is more than I can handle. However, I give myself a good slap across the face, remember what you have gone through, and realize that like you, I too can do it! I still wear your bracelet each and every day, and I plan on wearing it as I deliver this new child into the world. I will wear it proudly knowing that if you can do all of this and still have that beautiful smile on your face, that I can do it too.

All my best to you.

Am sharing two verses today. The second verse is God's own interpretation of the first verse. When dealing with all the "floods" and vehement winds beating upon us, there is only One Sure Foundation. Praying so as you face these "floods."
Luke 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
1 Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

This is a long section but the words are really special and comforting and special. Continuing to pray!
Psalms 86:1-7 Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy. Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee. Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily. Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee. Give ear, O LORD, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications. In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.

I'm wishing you the best of luck with your bone marrow biopsy this morning, and I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. You still continue to be the strongest person I've ever known.

Hey Precious -

Good luck with the bone marrow biopsy today. As a veteran of many of them, I know how unpleasant they are. I am waiting anxiously to hear the good news that your bone marrow is clear! I love you so much and am right there in your corner rooting for you, Champ! Grandma xoxoxoxo

A friend sent me this passage today and I thought it was especially good. There's nothing more comforting in life than knowing the source of our salvation. Know that I'm still praying!
Romans 3:21-26 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

Hey Maryah ~

I stumbled onto your Caringbridge site after seeing it on Maggie Schumann's site. Maggie and I were classmates and were on the same soccer team when we were about in fourth grade - fun times! Something told me I had to read your story-I guess I'm a "Lurker."

I can't express my sincere awe - your strength and bravery are astounding and you have a wonderful smile - you are "THE CHAMP," most definitely. You have a ton of fight in you - kick cancer out the window!

You and your family are in my prayers!

Maryah,
I have followed your story and thought about you,and prayed for you all but the 1st year of your battle. I am so sad that you have to be challenged yet another time, but something tells me that you will be a winner again. If courage, and attitude have anything to to with the future outcome there is no question your will be a winner. Fight chamnp!!!!! We will meet you in the winning circle.

Hey Miss M!
Just when I think that I am crazy to have taken on training
for a marathon, while working
full time, commuting several hours in
the car every day--all the
while raising Kyle--you remind me once
again why I make the time to go out
there to train. I do it so I can wear
my Dana Farber Cancer Institute race singlet
in the Boston Marathon with your name on it
and that is an honor that makes every mile,
ever blister, and really every run worth doing.

You are the best..and your folks are pretty amazing too..
I am sad to see Chemo is coming back--
but at the same time amazed to realize that
even after 4 long years that your shining attitude
keeps on fighting this terrible disease.

I echo the sentiments of many when I say that
I am blessed to know you and your amazing spirit.

Praying up hard here on the East Coast.

Lots of Love,
Cari & Kyle

Psalms 121:1-8 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

To the strongest young Lady and Family I have the honor to know,

I heard the news in December and I apologize for not writing until now. In my mind, just maybe if I don't go on to the site it was just a dream.

I have no words, my heart aches and tears flow with as much hope and faith I can muster. I know this is strong group of people and a young lady who will come through this next round of the fight a Champion.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during round in the ring.

Isaiah 49:13-16a Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands...

Hey Beautiful-
I was sad to read that the beast is back. If anyone can
fight it you will (and knock it out)! You have so many
friends, family, and even people who haven't had the honor
of meeting you praying for you and sending lots of good
vibes your way.
Keep your chin up and continue to be wonderful!

Hi Maryah, I check your site often and was very sad to read about your recent scans. I guess you just need to put those fighting gloves back on. Cancer cannot take away your spirit so keep fighting against this beast. You are in my thoughts and prayers. You go girl! Kill the beast.

Still praying!
Psalms 91:1-4 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

These verses were part of my husband's sermon text today. This is a really good passage and speaks a lot to us all as we face a new year. Praying!
Lamentations 3:21-26 This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.

As the new year begins everyone's thinking about time and counting it down. So I wanted to share THE section of Scripture dealing with time. Praying as one year ends and a new one begins. Whatever this new year holds, the Lord WILL be with you!
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
