Cock a Doodle Doo!!

She loves that trampoline!




Giving her dolly's "tubees" a drink, just like the nurse does





Sarah and her nurse, Annie, at the picnic on Saturday


A nice bright and early morning for us tomorrow...(and I am not a morning person, I tell ya.) We have to be at the hospital for a blood draw at 6:15 in the morning, and then we head to the dr.'s office where Sarah will be getting another eye exam under sedation and probably more treatment. Maybe more laser and freezing treatments, and probably another dose of chemo in the eye. It may be another long day of Itsy Bitsy Spider, and that is totally fine.


Please be praying that those tumors have shrunk. So far we haven't seen barely any change in them. And pray that Sarah will not have to go a whole week without opening her eye again. They are going to give her a steroid to try and prevent that from happening this time.


Yesterday we went to the big annual picnic for pediatric cancer patients and their families. There was a lot of free food, crafts, prizes, a dunk tank, all sorts of fun stuff. And many of the oncologists and nurses were there, even taking their turn in the dunk tank! What awesome people they are. We are so thankful for the loving care we have received and the friendships we have made since we started this journey. There really are wonderful people in this world. : )


You are some of those people. Thank you so much for following along with us and praying us through! God is truly answering your prayers!

  1. Oh, Holly, I'll for sure be praying for sweet Sarah today!!

    And your last post I could really relate to. Wow, have I had days like that! More often than I'd like, sadly! Though it's those kinds of days that I see how much I need the Lord. So, I suppose it's good if it leads us to fully lean on Him.

    You're a wonderful mom, Holly!

    Love you, friend!!

  3. I think that picnic was a fantastic idea! What a great way to build rapport between staff and patients/families!

    I am praying for sweet Sarah's good eye to be completely healed of cancer. I love you, my treasured friend.
