Well, I can’t believe it but it’s been a year since my diagnosis. One year ago today, my world was turned upside down as I sat on a stormy beach. It was by far the most emotional and challenging day of my life. I wanted to write today to encourage everyone to always have hope, no matter what. While every day presents many physical and emotional challenges for me, I remain firm in my feelings that my cancer has been one of the best things that has ever happened to me. It has brought me closer to God and built new and stronger relationships with so many wonderful people. While every day is not easy, I know that there is always hope and that God will take care of my family and me. This doesn’t mean that things will be easy or that obstacles won’t exist. What will always exist is hope. What can’t be taken away is hope and my relationship with God and the amazing people who’ve walked this path with us this past year. We love you and are forever grateful and in awe of how you’ve loved us. My original thought was not to post today, but when I opened my eyes this morning, the word hope kept repeating in my mind. Then, in God’s perfect timing, my devotional today was all about hope (below). A year ago today, I thought my life was over, when in actuality a beautiful journey was just beginning. No matter what you’re going through, try not to lose hope.



Love you all very much. My scans are in a few weeks, so please be in prayer. I no longer pray for clean scans but for God to take care of my family and me when the results are revealed- regardless of the results.

Have a wonderful week and reach out if we can help YOU!💗
