Our golden girl has officially applied to the nursing program at Gordon State, she’s booked her TEAS test, and she’s being considered for a scholarship from My Hometown Heroes, Inc.

She won’t know whether she made it into the nursing program or whether she’s been chosen for the MHH scholarship for several weeks, but you’re welcome to read her essay submission. If you feel led, you can donate directly to the MHH project where she would receive 80% of all donations made in her honor. Most importantly we ask that you keep our girl in your prayers as she prepares for a moment she’s dreamt of for so long.

We’re wrapping up 2024 with a stable MRI and a new specialist, Dr. Patterson with endocrinology. Abigail’s favorite nurse, Leah, works closely with this doctor so we took that as a God wink😉. She gave Abigail a little scolding for not having on her “pink”, along with a couple of jugs that she will be filling up first thing next year😂. Chemo did its job at stabilizing the tumor growth, but it’s left Abigail with some ongoing issues that we’ve got to get to the bottom of🩸💊🔍.

In even better news, our golden girl finished the semester on the Dean’s List and officially submitted her application to the nursing program. Our hope for this next year is continued tumor stability 🧠🎗️ and an acceptance into the GSU Nursing Program 💙👩🏼‍⚕️💚.

MRI is done, and we’re hoping for the best gift of all - a stable scan. Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎁 🎗️

With childhood cancer, nobody realizes what life really looks like for “survivors” or the ones off treatment. It’s not all rainbows and sunshine once your MRIs are stable and the chemo is over. Next it’s time to work on fixing all of the side effects after a child’s brain or body has been cut open and then poisoned with toxins that have been used since before they were even born. And as I type this out in frustration with the “why?”, I’m brought to a pause and reminded how fortunate we really are, and in so many ways. Today we met with her new Hematologist, Dr. Briones. He’s going to be working on figuring out the root cause for all of this bleeding and bruising Abigail has been dealing with, alongside her Pediatrician who is working on the potential autoimmune side of this. She will have visits with a couple of new specialists in the upcoming weeks, along with a sleep study test. Abigail gets a very specific blood test this coming Monday that has to be done at 7:30am, and we should get the results of the autoimmune panel this week. I ask that you pray with us for answers and a clear path forward. She has an MRI next month, so we’ve asked Santa for stability.

My golden girl is killing it at school and even gets to skip her Microbiology final because she’s got an A in the class. This weekend she will attend the GHSA Cheerleading Championship for the second year as a coach, and next month she will submit her application to the nursing program. She gets to. We get to. We are blessed.💛🎗️🫶

Abigail’s visit with Dr. Aguilera went well. The tumor has not changed, and for that we are grateful. There are still lingering side effects that Abigail continues to deal with, and her memory and balance have declined over the last few weeks/months. Her next MRI is scheduled for June, but Aguilera wants her back in clinic next month to re-evaluate. We’re hoping that these medication changes will do the trick over these next few weeks and she wraps up second semester .🎗️💛
