Praises and Updates

Audrey has been doing well! She is in the middle of her second grade school year and still loves going to school :) She loves playing outside, crafting, reading, playing with dolls and Barbies.

Audrey had her routine scans in December and the radiologist reported no evidence of cancer. Praise God! Recently, Audrey had a visit with the craniofacial team. It was determined that there is some air passing through her throat/nose which decreases her ability to be understood, so we will be pursuing a minor procedure in May. Her doctor said that the potential benefits are worth pursuing it. With that said, nothing is 100%, and there are side effects with the procedure as well...our prayer is that it would help.

Audrey's vision has been steady. Her left eye, where bone was removed is often more irritated, but it is improved with lubrication.

Audrey is a fighter and doesn't complain about much of anything. She has a positive attitude and a wonderful soul. We are thankful that even in the midst of the trials and hardships, when our minds and hearts are fixated on truth and what is yet to come, there isn't a longinng for the next thing or the next season, we are content in today. Be still.

We Walk By Faith

Audrey is continuing to hold on with the strength that is left. She is tired, weak and sleeps most of the time. We can continue to praise God she has no pain. Audrey has her routine, though most of it consists of sleeping. She enjoys a little chocolate milk, a yogurt smoothie, some applesauce and maybe some small bites of food here and there. With that said, eating and drinking is becoming more difficult, but Audrey manages with some assistance and help. Benjamin, Hannah and Emma continue to do well with this season we are in. They display loving hearts, asking if Audrey needs anything, praying for her and just sitting near her. We are so grateful for the tenderness they show Audrey and the peace they have knowing Audrey will likely be with Jesus soon. 2 Corinthians 5:1- 10 For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself an...

Memories Made - 2026 Summer Fun

This summer has proved to be a blessing in many ways. The Lord has blessed us with some amazing trips! We started off the summer with a trip to North Myrtle Beach. This has been our third trip to the same area. The boys found some incredible shark's teeth, we swam, made some friends, ate great food, and above all had family time without interruptions. It was a sweet memory for us all, remembering our time spent with Audrey at the beach. We enjoyed sharing memories of Audrey during our family walks in the evening. We enjoyed a two night stay at Lake Hope with some of our friends. The were plenty of crafts, food, hikes, and an evening of worship together around a fire. We were again, blessed by these memories. Lastly, we made our way up to Michigan with our good friends. The place were we stay carries many memories for us as family; this was a our fourth summer there. While it was hard without Audrey, each day we found solace in knowing that she is loved by her Savior, Jesus C...

He is With You

About a month has passed since our last update-Audrey continues to do well despite daily challenges. The cancer is continuing to spread, unfortunately this is something we can see visually. The tumor is now covering nearly her entire left eye and continues to grow outward. Audrey has not complained to this day. Her strength is inspiring to say the least. Audrey will have another nasal endoscopy this upcoming Tuesday. We are thankful this will likely relieve her sinuses. We are still under the impression nothing can be done externally. Palliative care has visited to simply put eyes on Audrey. We have been incredibly thankful she continues to have no pain. We have even visited with a social worker who has helped make a meaningful craft to build memories. Audrey continues to play outside, make beautiful drawings, go on walks, rest with Coco, read books on the couch, play Zelda and Mario Cart with her sisters and the list goes on. SO thankful for that. We have decided to pursue ...
