God's Word

We are receiving many scriptures from you to help us get through this very difficult time. We thank you. They bring us comfort and we want to share them with everyone here.  I pray that this page be a source of comfort for you as well.


Fear not for I am with you; be not dismayed for I am thy God: I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will hold you with my right hand. 
Isaiah 41:10

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. 
Deuteronomy 33:27

My gracious favor is all you need. My power works best in your weakness. 
2 Corinthians 12:9

In all things God works for the good of those who love him. 
Romans 8:28

My child, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh.  
Proverbs 4:20

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.   
John 16:33


I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the Living. Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; Wait I say on the Lord.   
Psalm 27:13-14

Please Join Us In Prayer - CT Scan Tomorrow

I just received the call from the hospital with Violet's appointment time. We will be checking in at 9:30 AM at Seattle Children's Hospital. They let me know the procedure will take approximately 1.5 hours and then recovery from anesthesia will be a few hours. These will be the tests that tell us everything about the stage of cancer. We would love for the tumor to just be gone! If that is not the case, we want to hear that it has not spread anywhere else at all. We want to hear that Violet's life will be saved, her eye will be saved and her sight will be restored. There is a beautiful prayer that went out for Violet by email. We do not even know the wonderful man who wrote it but I thank God for him. The prayer was forwarded to me and I want to share it below: As you have said a personal prayer for the benefit of Violet, lets also come to collective agreement in Prayer for her comfort, healing and above all God's Glory ... Father God, Maker of all things good, c...

Our life in a Bubble

Germophobia: An apprehension concerning germs. Someone who has such a concern is often referred to as a "germophobe".  Ok, so I have officially become a germophobe. And, I don't care if there is a negative stigma attached to the term. I have become a germophobe for the safety of our baby. If anyone thinks that I'm the crazy lady at the store because I'm wearing latex gloves ... so be it. Heck, I might even bust out a hospital mask if I feel the need as the cold and flu season arrives. This entire situation has really changed me because I don't care what others think of me anymore as I am living and doing these things to ensure the health of our child. The last 2 visits to the hospital for Violet's blood tests have been a bit tough. Violet is a smart little nugget and she learned very quickly that if a nurse is going for her chest that means something bad is about to happen. So, she is definitely getting upset during her port access (sterilizing the area,...

Moving Forward

The last 5 days have been long and exhausting. To say we are overwhelmed would be an understatement. But, you never know until you are in a situation like this how strong you can really be. When we have our moments where we hit our end Josh and I pray together and God reels us back in to start fresh. On Wednesday afternoon Violet came out of anesthesia with no issues and she handled everything she had to go through that day very well. We were very grateful for that. There was a delay in the doctor getting to speak with us after the procedure that made waiting for news that much longer. The nurse brought Violet in to us as we were waiting and I got to feed her. Seeing our baby with an IV in her little hand, the redness of her eyes from the exam and the thought of the radiation she had just been exposed to from the scan was very difficult. When the doctor came in he explained a lot to us. First, he explained there was no indication on the scans that the cancer had spread to her right...
