Lindsay’s Story

Site created on April 20, 2020

On March 24, 2020, during a global pandemic, Lindsay heard the news that she had a brain tumor. After removing it, she was diagnosed with glioblastoma. A tumor that is fast growing, and a condition that is in need of immediate and aggressive attention, which initially includes 6 weeks of chemotherapy and radiation for which she will make daily trips to Columbus to receive. Because of Covid-19, much of her treatment will be faced alone. It is possible that she could also have clinical immunotherapy treatments in the future. There have been positive signs along this journey including the complete removal of the initial tumor, and news that she has a genetic marker that makes treatment more likely to be successful in this battle! Lindsay is a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister, teacher and friend. Her life continues to be marked by working hard, pursuing ambitious goals, living a healthy lifestyle, and most of all giving of herself completely to the ones she loves. She is facing this difficult situation by leaning on her unwavering faith in God, and through the support of the many family and friends who love her dearly.

Journal entry by Lindsay Moore

Firstly, more than anything, this is the day we celebrate our Savior’s Resurrection. Easter is the greatest love story this world has ever seen. I am in awe of Jesus Christ every day since I found out I had the most deadly Stage 4 brain cancer. 

I remember 4 years ago today I went into brain surgery. Ty and I prayed before right before the nurse wheeled me away. I wasn’t scared. I didn’t know if I would live through it and I especially didn’t know if I would live much longer after the fact. My kids were 9 and 5. I wasn’t scared because Jesus came into my heart full force earlier that week. I have peace like I can not describe… “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.“ Philippians 4:7 

Today and every day, I celebrate Christ. I give ALL the glory to Him. Every day of my last 4 years I reach out to Jesus by talking to Him, praising Him in ALL circumstances, thanking Him and reading the Holy word of God. I want to serve God. It’s a way of life for me and it should have been all along. I want others to know God. It’s a beautiful life with our Savio. This life is like a grain of sand. Heaven is all of the grains of sand and then some. 

I often think…why me? I should have been dead 4 years ago. The doctors say I should have lived 6-8 months. Sometimes I feel like I am doing nothing… but I am learning patience. I know that I am a child of God and His word tells me that He has plans for me. If you don’t Jesus is your savior please reach out to me or anyone and especially to God. He wants of His creations!

I heard many times “you are so strong” and to be honest I kinda cringe. I am NOT strong, but God within me is! All glory to Him. I keep leaning into the word and that’s keeps me going. 

My next MRI is June and that goes well I get to go every 6 months! My plan (God’s will be done) is to go back to work in Aug. I would appreciate prayers for the work situation.  I want to be where wants me to be. 

Happy Easter ✝️
