Looking back on this year I dont even know where to begin. This has been the hardest year of my life and with all of the challenges we have faced I cant help but think about the thousands of people out there who have walk with us on this journey! I will not look back on this year and talk about how horrible it was but instead look at how wonderful it was. I have met some truly incredible people...people who I now look at as our new family! I have met doctors and nurses who have have been there through some of the hardest conversations and most difficult times I have ever experienced. Without these amazing people I dont know how I would have made it! I have met some wonderful families at the cancer center who have been there to talk, sometimes even at 2am in the morning, and who have accepted Keira and the rest of us with open arms! Without these families this journey would be much more difficult! My family and friends who have listened to me cry, yell, and completely break apart and then pick me back up and help put me back together! And of course the thousands of people who have given time, money, food and especially prayers...you mean more to me than you will ever know! As I sit here and reflect I am saddened by the amount of amazing people I knew, or just felt like I knew, who are no longer with us and the children who are still fighting the fight of their life. I thank God for bringing everyone of them into my life because these children are truly amazing and I wish I had the strength each one of them have! I pray that each one of you have a wonderful New Year and that God may bless you even in the midst of complete chaos, just like he has done for me and my family! So in the words of Keira Peace out 2014!!!
