Journal entry by Molly and Jerad Protaskey —
Sarah is coming up on a year since her emergency brain surgery to remove a cancerous tumor. Sarah continues on her treatment path with 4 months left of oral chemotherapy. She has been tolerating her chemo well with the exception of some fatigue. While living and working in Charleston she does virtual appointments with her doctors at Froedert and comes back to Wisconsin every couple months for an MRI and in-person consult with her treatment team. This past year has been a whirlwind for our family, most recently with our dad having open heart surgery to fix an aortic valve a few weeks ago. Once again our family has been supported and uplifted by so many of you and we are incredibly grateful for your thoughts and prayers.
Sarah most certainly has been an inspiration in her mental toughness, continuing to take her treatment one day at a time, showing gratitude for the small things in life and undoubtedly has helped my dad is his recovery. Her next MRI will be around Easter, continued prayers for healing and strength are greatly appreciated. My family and I thank you all for everything and count our many blessings for we are fortunate to have you! May the season bring new blessings of hope, love, faith and good health to you all, happy Easter!
