✝️ “Jesus Heard My Cry” – Full Testimony

I can’t speak enough about the documentary Kids Like Us! 🎬 It shares stories like ours — stories of faith, fear, and the fight no parent should ever face.

Our journey began in October 2019, when my son Alec was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. 🎗️

Watching him battle cancer broke me in ways I can’t even describe. But even through the tears, the sleepless nights, and the hospital walls that became our home — God was there. 🙏 Alec fought hard, and by 2022, he was declared cancer-free.

But just when I thought we could finally rest, three years later, his identical twin brother Aden became sick with the same exact cancer. 💔 We almost lost him on 10/23, and I remember falling to my knees, crying out, “Jesus, please don’t take my baby.”

And in that moment — Jesus heard my cry. 🙌 He wrapped His arms around Aden and gave him the strength to keep fighting. That night, I made a promise: if God saved my son, I would spend the rest of my life advocating for children like Alec and Aden. I would speak up, raise awareness, educate others, and never stop fighting for a cure. 🎗️

Next month, Aden will ring that bell 🔔 — a sound that means victory, faith, and survival. After years of holding my breath through fear and prayer, I can finally breathe again. 💛

To every mother still in the storm — don’t lose faith. Cry out to Jesus. He hears you, even when your voice shakes, even when your heart breaks. He’s the same God who carried me through, and He’ll carry you too. ✝️

🎗️💛 **Help Me Celebrate Two Little Warriors!** 💛🎗️

As a single mother, I’ve watched my boys, **Alec and Aden**, fight the toughest battle —
**childhood cancer**. 💔

There were moments I didn’t know how we’d make it through, but by God’s grace, they did! 🙏 They both fought *Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia T-Cell *and came out **cancer-free**! 🎉

Now, I want to give them something every child deserves — **a celebration of life, love, and victory**. 🥳✨

This cancer-free party isn’t just for them — it’s for all of us who’ve prayed, cried, and believed through it all. 💪

Unfortunately, due to financial strain, I can’t make this happen on my own. So I’m reaching out to my community, family, and friends — everyone who has followed our journey — to please lend a helping hand. 💛

Every donation, big or small, will go toward making this dream come true.

🎗️💔 The Truth About Pediatric Cancer 💔🎗️

Can you imagine waking up every day scared to death — not knowing if your child will survive, or if you will survive the heartbreak? 😔💔

As a mother, you learn to put on the biggest act of your life — smiling through tears 😢, holding it together 💪 so your child doesn’t see your fear. You pick up the pieces day after day, even as your baby withers away from treatments that hurt more than words can say.

But through it all… FAITH keeps you going. 🙏
Trusting God when everything feels impossible keeps you standing. 🌤️

💛 “God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.” — Psalm 46:5 💛

🎗️💛 A Celebration of Hope, Faith, and Healing! 💛🎗️

It still feels unreal to say this… but both of my boys, Alec and Aden, are officially cancer-free! 🙌😭💪
Alec was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in 2019, and just when we thought our family had fought the toughest battle we’d ever face — Aden was diagnosed with the same cancer three years later. Watching both of my sons go through chemo, hospital stays, hair loss, pain, and fear has been the hardest thing I’ve ever experienced as a mother. There were nights I cried silently, praying to God for their healing, holding on to hope when everything felt uncertain.

But God showed up. ✨ He gave us strength on the hardest days, and surrounded us with love and support from family, friends, and even kind strangers who prayed for us from afar. Through every setback, every tear, every hospital hallway — my boys kept smiling. Their courage, their faith, and their fighting spirit have been nothing short of a miracle.
Now, after years of fighting, we finally get to say those beautiful words — cancer-free! 💛🎗️

As a parent of five, it hasn’t been easy. Between hospital bills, time off work, and trying to hold everything together, the financial strain has been real. I’m currently looking for a full-time job and rebuilding one step at a time. But one thing I know for sure — my boys deserve to be celebrated for their strength, their bravery, and their unshakable faith.

I’ve created a GoFundMe to help us throw Alec and Aden a Cancer-Free Celebration Party — a day full of joy, laughter, music, and love. After everything they’ve endured, I want them to have a day where they can just be kids again — smiling, dancing, and surrounded by people who love them.

If you’re able to help in any way — whether through a donation or simply sharing the link — it would mean the world to us. Every single prayer, share, and dollar brings us closer to making this celebration happen.

💛🎗️ 🎗️💛
From the bottom of my heart — thank you for standing with us through this journey. You’ve helped us get to this moment, and now we can finally celebrate life, hope, and God’s goodness! 🙌🎗️

💛💪 The Hardest Road, But We Never Gave Up 💛

This cancer road has been one of the hardest battles we’ve ever faced. The sleepless nights, the tears, the fear — it all tried to break us. But through it all, I never let Aden give up. 💔💛

No matter how tired, scared, or weak he felt, I reminded him that he’s stronger than cancer could ever be.

We fought every day with faith, love, and hope. 🙏✨

Watching my boy push through the pain with a smile has shown me what true strength looks like. This journey hasn’t been easy, but giving up was never an option.

We kept going — and we still are. 💪💛
