The past few months have been some of the most difficult for our family. From health scares with Kanan following his anatomy scan at 20 weeks to personal health issues, this postpartum period has been anything but ordinary. It all started with a flight to NIH in Bethesda MD where a full body MRI at 28 weeks showed enlarged lymph nodes. A punch biopsy while pregnant, CT, PET Scan, and surgical biopsy later we received the diagnosis of recurrent Hodgkins Lymphoma.

Although Terry and I have been in this place before, this time is different. There are three little lives that will also be impacted and affected. Never did we imagine we would be fighting this battle again seven years later with a 5 year old, 3 year old and a 7 week old. Treatment this time is more intense and will require chemotherapy followed by a Bone Marrow Transplant.

Chemotherapy and our journey officially starts next Wednesday. Until then we are soaking up our time as a family and doing as much as possible while trying to prepare.

At this time we ask for prayers and good vibes as we try to navigate this journey. We are so thankful for our family and friends who have already helped us by watching the kids during appointments, brought food or flowers after surgery and those who have just listened to us vent. I can honestly say this will be our toughest journey that we have ever been through, but the possibility of seeing my children grow up will be worth the hardest days ahead.

We are officially breaking out my old bracelets.. #OneDayAtATime#BattleforBecca
