"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jeremiah 29:11

~Two and a half years CANCER FREE!! ~

Yippie!!!

Can you believe that?

I look back at pictures and think...

 "How did our family get through this?"
"How did our family not fail?"
"Why did Ty survive, and not others?"
"Will we have to do this agian?"

But.... I know whose hand was/is in it all!
I know that God has plans for Ty!
Great plans! He always has!!
He has taken him in His hand and held on tight!!
And for that,  we are SO grateful!

Ty is just stronger and healthier than ever!!
He will be 12 years old on July 5th, and is growing like a weed! He is wise beyond his years & hopeful in so many ways!! We couldn't be any prouder of who and what he has become throughout all of this!! 

And Samantha, she amazes us every day with her unselfishness, and eyes-wide-open approach to life!  Talk about wise beyond her years!! That is Her!!! She is my light, my life & my Hero!!

Our family is stronger than ever, our faith is never ending, and we know what really matters in the long run!
No matter what is to happen in the future, we will face it with HOPE, FAITH, & DETERMINATION!!

We are half way to the 5 year mark!! Ty will be considered "Cured" then!! And.. what will those years bring? Only good things Always No matter What!!

Lots of LOVE & HOPE,
Gretchen, Lee,
Ty & Sammie
