Long Post- but PLEASE READ! As most of you have noticed I have been asking for prayer and been a bit off and distant the past few weeks. Just as I thought I had seen the light coming out of a tunnel of depression, our family found ourselves in a health scare. Our daughter, Tamarra, was exhibiting signs and symptoms of OSTEOSARCOMA (Bone Cancer). Over the past couple of weeks she has had imaging and blood testing done. I havent been able to sleep, eat or breathe. I felt like a fish out of water. Nothing like worrying for your childs life to put EVERYTHING in perspective!! By the GRACE OF GOD her MRI results came back negative!!!! We are CANCER FREE! PRAISE JESUS!!!! This all being said we are blessed to celebrate her birthday tomorrow. I thank GOD for every single breath that comes across her lips. I am just so humbled and grateful for her health and the health of my friends and family in general. YOUR HEALTH IS A BLESSING! THANK YOU to the few that knew about this and continuously went out of their way to check in and give their support. I am eternally grateful for every prayer that was made for our family. THANK YOU!!!! A special thank you to Darlene Eckert Hanafi and all of the staff at All Star Pediatrics in Orlando for being so diligent, caring and empathetic while dealing with this crazy mama (and nursing student- lord knows THAT DIDNT HELP! LOL) FINALLY, while she is cancer free I urge you all (whether you are a parent or not) to be able to recognize the signs of this cancer (often misinterpreted for growing pains). While it is quite life threatening if it spreads, it is EXTREMLY treatable when caught early. I have attached a link. READ IT! SHARE IT! ADVOCATE IT! GOD BLESS YOU ALL! kidshealth.org/parent/medical/cancer/cancer_osteosarcoma.html
