Journal entry by Lauran Johnson —
Hey everyone! Now that the dust has started to settle a little bit here, I just wanted to jump on here one last time.
Where do I even begin? The last ten months or so have been a roller coaster to say the least. We went through surgeries, treatments, had good news, had bad news, had bad days, and had good days. Through it all, we have had AMAZING support from our family, friends, and all of you.
Going through something as earth shattering as cancer, can be hard. However, knowing that we had so many warriors praying, thinking, checking up on us, and just in general being there for us in what ever capacity, is truly humbling. I honestly don’t think we would have been able to handle any of the news or even the unfortunate outcome without the support from everyone.
Seeing all of the love and support at mom’s visitation and funeral and all of the love and support we have received since mom passing, really does warm our hearts.
Mom was truly a “life of the party”, kind hearted, spunky lady who touched many people’s life’s in ways that we are just now figuring out. Even though it is hard not having her here and that we miss her like crazy, we know that she isn’t in pain anymore. Knowing that gives us a little peace. But it is going to take time for us to start our new normal. Day by day we are getting there though.
Long story short, we (dad, brother, and myself) would like to thank everyone for everything they have done. Whether it was making a meal, praying for us, sending flowers, visiting mom, sending a note or two, or simply letting us know that we were in your thoughts. It honestly and truly is humbling. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We wouldn’t have been able to do any of this without you.
Thank you,
Collin, Lauran, & Eric
