To all my breast cancer survivors

Karen should be having her surgery soon to remove her breasts. What are “must haves” post operative and during chemotherapy and radiation?? I would like to do an Amazon wish list with these necessities and luxuries on it.
And go!

Addy has got her genetic test results and the ERG test results. Genetic was negative!!! Also the ERG was NORMAL! She rocked the test!
Unfortunately Addy did take a softball to her face last week! She is healing up nicely now! She is a TOUGH cookie.
She has her first volleyball tournament this Saturday in town! 10:30 a.m. is the first game! Come out and support the team!

Hi everyone 👋😊👋 So Addy's eye scans are this week! On Thursday we will be headed to the cities to the U of M for her 3 ERG scans! They will be very intense for Addy and she needs all the prayers and encouragement she can receive! The tests will be very uncomfortable but nothing painful but that won't matter with her PTSD. So the hospital has been wonderful and will work with her anxiety to make sure she feels in control! She is so tough!
She has started Volleyball 🏐🏐 practice this week and also has committed to softball 🥎 this spring! So many wonderful things are coming up and well we still have to remember that this situation with her eyes is seriously going to impact her future. I am praying it's from the chemotherapy and not something that is genetic!! Still waiting on those results
Well 😊 have a wonderful day everyone!!

Addy will be getting the ERG on the 29th. I did not think to ask what the test required. It's going to be very hard for her, due to her anxiety! I called and she can't be sedated or on any medications. So we talked about it and watched the tests and Addy wants answers so we are going to give it a go. They are aware she may need more time than most people require, just to make sure she is comfortable the whole time. I will be with her so that does help us both :)

This is an important fundraiser for my granddaughter. Please consider helping her raise money for her brother! She is currently facing her own new diagnosis but she wanted to do this in memory of Camden….

Hi everyone! Hate to be here sharing more bad news. Addy has been diagnosed with cone rod dystrophy. They are still running a bunch of tests, as it is a RARE disease to have. Only 50,000 ppl live with it in the United States! She is really upset about it but optimistic that we will work through it!
Prayers are needed.

Crazy to look back on these photos. Can't believe we went from that scary place to where she is today! Also found some gems of her pre -cancer, and omg, she was the most beautiful little girl who has grown into a beautiful almost women lol 😂 but for real, she is so damn beautiful ❤️ Then we had Addy's hair loss and growth that was a whole journey of its own! Man, we did it! I saw something that said,
"I finally have the life that I was always praying for."
Perfectly said

Love you Addy. You're a tough cookie
