What do they all have in common? We love Morgan and are fighting for his life!
As we sat waiting for answers today we bantered, rattled theory, threw thoughts and reminisced of how we might have been stirred to believe one way or another. Divided in theory, but united @ heart.
We were there to find the answers to LIFE! How do we keep Morgan alive? I want to keep him! How simple and silly that sounds, but I love that boy and I want him here with me. He’s got my blood and I still have so much to share with him. I don’t want to lose him or leave him. I want to take him home and keep him forever, as my girls would say. I really can’t imagine my life without him.
I love having brothers! … like a husband is a witness to your life- my brothers are a witness to my beginnings (as I am theirs). They know the true me. I am understood and accepted on a different level. They know what I come from. What I was. They can appreciate what I have grown to be, as I can with them. We hold each other in check and can speak into each others lives differently than a friend, spouse or parent. We have rallied and come alongside to support each other in hard times.
We are there for each other! Dedicated to be present, be real and NEVER GIVE UP! … so as much difference as there may be- we are united!
Wonder twins power- ACTIVATE!

MD Anderson update: They wanted Morgan there for more testing and to speak to a Neuroblastoma specialist tomorrow. We were told it would be a one day appointment, so the extension was a surprise. We were not prepared, but adapted quickly. I came home, Morgan, Kasha and Mark are still there. More updates to follow.

It’s great reading your words, Melissa. It takes me back to your childhood, too. I was talking to my carpool partner this morning about Morgan and all of you at MD Anderson and told her that they had wanted to do their own tests when I was there with my friend. We stayed at the hotel across from the hospital and I was able to wheel her across on the overpass for the early morning tests. I guess it’s not surprising that they want to do things their way to be sure they have all the facts for the appointment. A better chance for success and for all of us keeping Morgan with us.
Hi, Melissa, I am one of Morgan’s old Flagstaff buddies. Thank you for your diligence to keep us all up to date on how Morgan is doing and for your incredible, brave candor! I continue to pray and send my love.
