My name is Cassie. Wife to Alex. Mom to Sam.

When Sam was 4 months old he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma cancer. This blog became my outlet to share, vent, keep people informed, and document our lives throughout his treatment.

When Sam finished treatment this project sort of fell to the wayside. I'm making an effort revive this space and to start documenting those everyday moments again!

We love God.
We love each other.

We're Home

Sam wasn't ready to come home. He started crying when we pulled into the driveway. Usually he only does that when he knows its nap time. ;)

But I have to admit that I wasn't quite ready either. While I'm happy to see my momma and my doggy, I'm sad that when we wake up in the morning we can't walk out our door and take a ride on the enchanted carousel.

This trip was truly amazing and we can't say thank you enough to Make-A-Wish, Give Kids The World, and their sponsors for making it happen. I can't describe the joy I feel when I close my eyes and picture all of the smiles and magic and wonder we experienced with Sam this week.
