Dan’s Story

Site created on August 28, 2018

Welcome to our Caring Bridge website. Dan was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in September of 2017. Following chemo, radiation and surgery in June, that diagnosis changed to stage 4 medically incurable cancer, having spread to other parts of his body. While this is an extremely difficult time in our lives, we are trusting God to teach us many things about Him, ourselves, and to be a blessing to other people.


Our family is so thankful for everyone's love, care, encouragement and support through this very difficult time.

Journal entry by kristy sterken

I have started about 4 different posts since last November and never published any of them.

Why?

Well, I wasn't happy with how I wrote them, how the words flowed.

I am not certain anyone really wants to keep following us on here.

I struggle with knowing what to say! Our life seems so "normal" now, for which I am so thankful!

CaringBridge was a great place to post when Dan was struggling with a terminal illness. Not so much for life updates that involve how the kids are doing, and things we are learning along the way!

All this to say, if you would like to stay in touch with me, please email me at kristyjoyhubbard@gmail.com so I can have your contact info.

Our family sends out email updates every few months to people who would like to stay connected and informed on what is going on with the Hubbard/Sterken Clan!

You can also check out the CaringBridge site of Norman's late wife, Katie at this link: https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/katiehubbard/journal

I am quite certain that Norman will continue to post (very) sporadically, but he does it well and is such a fantastic communicator!

Thank you again for all of your love, care and support of our family over the years. God continues to show His goodness to our family!

(Enjoy the pics of the kids who live at home with us right now. As far as the older kids go - 2 are currently in college and one is married, so I am lacking in the photo department for them!)
