What do you take to Chemo for a 3 year old?

We’ve had LOTS of questions about what all we take with us to Owens Chemo appointments… and today, I took pictures while packing up everything in preparation for tomorrow. I want to remind you what our appointments look like, Owen is attached by his chest (via power port) to a 4-5ft IV line that’s attachedContinue reading “What do you take to Chemo for a 3 year old?”

Don’t Be Your Own Bully

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but your worth is more than your hair, more than your weight, more than your looks, more than your past decisions, and more than your struggles. When my son lost his hair due to Chemotherapy treatments, I shaved my head… and if we’re being totally honest here…Continue reading “Don’t Be Your Own Bully”

Be the light you need

Yall, it’s been a rough couple weeks. Do you ever feel like this black cloud is following you dampening anything you touch? That’s how I have been feeling for a bit. I’ll spare you the pity party, but long story short its one thing after another, after another, after another and after another. Some daysContinue reading “Be the light you need”

Always Help Others

Some of my viewers don’t know that I’ve been putting together bags for the homeless people we pass on the way to Owens Cancer treatments. They are waterproof backpacks jammed with all sorts of necessities and goodies, and I’ve gotten some questions about them… What if there just greedy people who go to “work” onContinue reading “Always Help Others”

God will Provide

I just want to give a quick testimony about God and him knowing our needs. God will bless us as we bless others. Late last night I found out that someone who donated to Owen when he was first diagnosed is now dealing with their own terrible share of things. I immediately felt like IContinue reading “God will Provide”

I Just Can’t. . .

Hello friends! I have been so busy with life. I feel like each time I post, I always say that I’ll try to do better about posting more, and the intention is there; but the time isn’t. Today was hard, and that’s an understatement. I work a full-time job, another job on Monday nights afterContinue reading “I Just Can’t. . .”

It’s been a while. . .

Hello friend, its been a while hasn’t it? I’ve been very busy with lots going on in my life. However, to be completley honest (whichI always have been when writing) I’m not doing the greatest right now. I could humor you with a pitty party for myself, but i’ll save you the trouble of tryingContinue reading “It’s been a while. . .”

Let go and let God

Recently, I have been praying for my future. I’ve been asking what it is that I need to pursue, trying to find my calling in life you could say. To be completely honest, I didn’t hear much other than that this life is about finding happiness. Finding inner peace, and being truly happy. It’s notContinue reading “Let go and let God”
