ALAINA UPDATE!!!!
Ok so update all on Alaina…. So as all know we had scans on the 16th well one of the scans came back abnormal Alaina had had 3 spots on her lungs since the start of diagnosis which they thought to be past scar tissue for when she was smaller from a cold!!!! Well fast forward to our 6 month post chemo scans the radiologist wrote back SUSPICIOUS for PULMONARY METASTASIS!!!!!! What is that some may ask….. well Alaina had osteosarcoma and upon a relapse it moves to soft tissue or the lungs sadly we believe Alaina’s chose her lungs…. With that being said due to the drs here not feeling like it’s anything to worry about and that we should just continue to watch it grow… we do feel it’s important as it has changed in shape,size, and density….. which are all factors in a tumor forming….. with osteosarcoma Mets it is everything to catch it early…. If it’s not caught early enough they won’t be able to help her any longer and we would then have how much ever time the lord decides…. But Charles and myself have decided taking her to a further hospital is our best hope for keeping Alaina alive….. and beating this monster… as of right now Alaina has not been declared in relapse but it is in suspicion…. We have a whole board of tumor drs currently waiting on her scans from the Savannah office once received they will look over and have us come to Atlanta for discussion and possible biopsy and further observation….
So as we navigate thru this difficult time please bare with us as I may not be as responsive but continue to look at her page for updates…… everyone please continue to pray for Alaina and us as her caregivers and all her drs….
Alaina has so much more life ahead of her we have to do what’s best for her and in my gut I feel something is wrong which is why I am choosing that second opinion because every other parent that I have talked to said that when this happened to their child, they were told the same thing and that if they wouldn’t have waited, their baby May would still be here. I don’t wanna be in their shoes if I would have, I want to do it. prayers as we will be navigating and traveling soon and prayers. The doctors can get to the bottom of this.

Ok update on caties gathering for Alaina there are 8 seats individual pay for each of them…. For a table of 8 please know someone will be in charge of decorating this table I can start a group chat for those who will be at this table I already have 2 seats sold thank you Harmony Heather and Brianne Betty-Laverne Døllar so we have 6 seats available if I have 8 more ppl after this six we will do another table it will be open bar great food and much more formal event but a very fun beautiful event here’s the date of the event…..
also if you are a buisness and wanna sponsor a whole nother table let me know they are $800 and come with 8 tickets/ seats to the event….

15/10/2024

PSA TO MY BUSINESS OWNERS!!!
Event: Caties Gathering open bar and great food and some truly heart felt stories….
I have a question for all my buisness owners I have 6 seats at the table unless I get two tables each table is $800 that pays for 8 tickets/seats or they can be purchased individually for $100 a piece… we are in charge of decorating the table in honor for Alaina… the funds go to helping fund research to finding a cure as well as helping finically to families as well as providing meals or meds not covered under insurance and so much more….
per Alaina she would like table decor ideas to be:
Weather/storm theme
Harvest theme
Hunting theme
Flower theme
Ga bulldogs/ football theme
Just some ideas from the diva herself we would love to see everyone come out in Alaina’s honor if you were to choose to cover the whole table it could qualify as a tax exemption from your company..:: we do it all but we do it for these babies who so desperately need a cure…..
please let me know asap if you are interested as soon as you do I can put you in contact with the table ladies❤️❤️ thank you everyone for continuing this journey for us….

On July 1 I took Alaina to the hospital due to her complaining of leg pain with her age I thought it was growing pains. Little did I know it...

Again, as I said September is national childhood cancer awareness month, and I will take every day to spend time to talk about how we need to bring awareness to children that have cancer… I don’t know a lot about all different types of cancers, but I do know a lot about sarcoma cancers and I am going to tell you that it is no easy fight to watch your child struggle and suffer through the harsh chemos from the 60s that are adult chemos that we are using and the fact that I do know some other cancer patients who had to take the same medicine that we had to take the medication that these kids are given need work. We need new treatments. We need a cure. There’s nothing else that we need or that we could ask for more than a cure for our children to never have to hear the words that are the worst “your child has cancer”. When you hear those words 1 million emotions run through your head. is my baby gonna die? How bad is it? Is it something that’s gonna affect my other children what are our next steps where do we turn what we do? All these things are questions that we ask ourselves when we hear those words, even though we don’t remember anything that we ask or talk about for the first couple days cause our emotions definitely get the best of us… again as I said we need a cure it’s not fair for our children to have to struggle and fight so hard just to live… a lot of things that people don’t realize are when someone develops cancer. It doesn’t just stop when treatment stop. It continues for months years a lifetime really they have scans. They have blood draws and more scans all while worried about hearing the horrible words relapse the word no parent wants to hear, but we could prevent that if we could get enough funding from our government to help fund our children help us bring awareness for our babies so no other parents have to hear those words we should not have to bury our babies we should not have to catch there hair bc It’s falling off because of the treatments. we shouldn’t have to run around trying to figure out what our babies are going to eat because we need them to have some type of calories going in them. It’s not fair to them to lose their family, their classmates and their friends we need a cure help us stop this disease…..!.!.!.!.!.!.
