This has stripped me bare, but this is my rebuild. I’m pressing into Jesus and taking it one day at a time. Please keep praying BOLD, GOD-SIZED prayers for me. I pray dailyyyy that your prayers would pour over me. Thank you for all the love and care you guys have shown, even when I may go silent here on socials🥹

A typical day for us, but this one was extra heavy. We will be back home in a week though and we are SO ready!! But also so nervous, honestly for a multitude of reasons…

One being having my care transferred back to Springfield, where we were unfortunately burned and received not great care multiple times.

Mayo is a very, VERY special place. It’s been a blessing to get to get to experience it, honestly. Their compassion and kindness is extraordinary. The doctors, nurses, techs, therapists, receptionists… they’re all exceptional! And while battling this glioblastoma diagnosis, spending hours a day at Mayo, we have been in such good hands here. So we are ready to be home, and nervous to leave.

Symptomatically, the doctors are thrilled with how I’ve handled treatment. I’ve had some headaches, nausea, fatigue, days where I just feel off, my concentration/brain threshold has changed… it’s been a challenge to say the least…

But honestly, all glory be to God!

I pray for strength and He gives it.

I pray for Him and his angels to fill that radiation room and calm me, they do, I feel it.

I pray for His peace, He gives it.

I have so many cool stories about how he’s showed up for me through this, I want to share them all someday, somehow. But friends, there’s no way I’d be handling this the way I am without Him. There’s no denying he’s been right here with me, weaving His goodness into this dark season we’re in.

He’s with me.

We’ve officially begun fighting at Mayo💪🏼 20 radiation treatments (5 times a week) with concurrent chemo pills 7 days a week during those 4 weeks. Then I’ll get a month break and have several more months of chemo.

My body is a very reactive thing… and I’m highly sensitive to changes that trigger anxiety. So please, LOADS of prayer that my body handles the treatment well, that I don’t have any bad long term issues from treatment, AND boldly pray that we put this cancer into a permanent remission!! 🙌🏼💪🏼✝️

Thank you all so much for the outpouring of love!

I can’t wait to share with you how I’ve seen God and his fingerprints all over this 😭 Do I still have times where I’m scared, and sad, and heartbroken, and overwhelmed… yes. I’m human. I fall into dark places still.

But it’s getting easier. The more I turn to Jesus and spend time with Him, the less deeply those moments can pull me in—and the quicker I find myself able to rise.

Prayer is POWERFUL. Please keep praying for me and my family, especially as we are up here at Mayo for treatment. Please keep proclaiming victory for us as well! And I will keep posting specific prayer requests in my stories ❤️

Thank you for being an incredible community of people for us to lean on and share this journey with 😭❤️

All day I’m just silently begging God for a healing miracle. But I feel disappointed and angry and let down… and this sadness is a crushing, lonely pit I’m constantly fighting to crawl out of. This is the diagnosis we’ve been praying against… I feel slapped.

Often throughout the day I get this feeling in my gut that the battle is going to suck, but it’ll all be okay… That I’ll get to grow old with my family, that my quality of life after will be even better than it was before…

But if I’m being honest… hope feels scary to hold onto bc it can make the fall of possible disappointment that much harder. And I’ve seen too many amazing people not get their healing miracle and I’m terrified to be another one of them.

And I know mindset is everything and I’m trying to stay positive, to let myself cling to hope, to not let those negative thoughts in… I’m trying so hard.

And I’m gonna fight so freaking hard.
