The "C" Word

Someone once said, "Too often, we get so focused on the finish line that we fail to find joy in the journey." This is Brynn's journey. You are invited to share in her fear and faith as she ventures into unfamiliar territory. Thank you, in advance, for your prayers and support for Brynn and her family. This is OUR journey. As we work together and pray together, may we truly find joy along the way.

Thanks a billion!

Really quickly, before I head off to school, I just want to thank you. I am horrible,probably the worst person ever, at thank you's, but if you have given me a gift from October to now , and I haven't said thanks yet, here it is. Thank you so much for the prayers and gift baskets and everything else They mean so much to me and my family. (My mom especially likes it when one of her old high-school friends drops off a basket.) I really appreciate the love and support, so one last time, Thank You.

Surgery Date

We just found out what day my surgery will be on. The doctor told us the 29th of January would be best. That's great, besides the fact that it's also my half birthday. Well, looking forward to that! I said sarcastically. So there you have it. January 29th.

I Wish...

The other day while I was up at the hospital, our child-life specialist, Jill, reminded me about something very big! My wish. Make a wish foundation will grant me a wish! So, I got to thinking, what should I wish for? I talked to someone who told me that their sister went to a place called Bora Bora for her wish, and loved it!, I looked at some pictures of Bora Bora and it seemed like a lot of fun! So there's one option. Later, my mom told me that the Bundersons, a family friend of ours, went to Turks and Caicos and said it was the funnest place they've ever been! And they've been to a lot of places! There's option #2. The last thing I'm considering is one of the well known Disney cruises! So far i think Hawaii sounds best, but if you know better, say something! Comment what you think you would do if you got a wish and what you think I should for mine. Also, I had an MRI on Friday and from what we can see, my tumor has shrunk considerably. I also had a PT/CT scan yesterday just to verify.Now I'm off to surgery! I don't know when I'm having it yet, but I'll blog the date when I do. So comment below and check in soon! Thanks!

Christmas and New Years!

Hi everyone! I'm sorry i haven't blogged in so log. Things have been really busy with Christmas and New Years happening. Luckily, I've felt great through both! Christmas was awesome! I got tons of cute new clothes ad jewelry and fun crafts to work on while at the hospital. I got to spend Christmas eve with some friends and we all ad a great time playing bingo for some fun prizes. Looking forward to a fun Christmas next ear too, and a big thanks to the family who made Christmas the way it was! Then on New Years Eve I started off the night by going to my friend, Kyra's, house. We ate some fried chicken that her dad cooked us in his fryer, along with some fluffy waffles with strawberry sauce, and the biggest, most juicy green grapes I'd ever seen! I was so full afterwards, I could hardly walk! So I didn't! Instead Kyra, Lindsey and I played a game of "Racko", something Kyra had gotten for Christmas. It was really fun! In the end I just barley won! Then all the moms came in and everyone played a quick game of "Gestures", and it was time for me to leave, so my dad drove me to my other friend, Kelly's house. There we read fan fiction, took quizzes, and played games like "Just Dance 2015" and "Quelf". I had a blast! At midnight we all drank a cup of sparkling cider and posted our first picture of the new year. I hope you had a blast this holiday season too! Oh, I almost forgot! I have about a month off chemo! I'm also a third of the way done with my treatment, and will be getting my surgery later this month! so it really was a happy new year.
