LOTS OF LOVE AND THANKS TO ALL OF YOU

I really just want to send out lots of love and thanks to all of you!

I can't tell you all how amazed our whole family is and how wonderful you all have been when it comes to the situation that we are dealing with.  Many of you (well, let me say most of you) I have never met before, and you all have come together to do something so amazing and wonderful for us that I can't even begin to tell you how much we appreciate it.

Our main focus here is to get rid of the cancer, keep Emily happy and as healthy as we can keep her.  And you all are helping in everyway that you know possible and I have to tell you that it really means a lot to our family that you all are doing this for us.

We have totally had to change our lives around and of course we are happy to do that to do what we have to do to get her better.  We have changed our eating habits and we are now eating all Organic foods.  While it is very expensive, we know it better not only for her, but for all of us after all the reading we have done about it.  I now make and prepare meals to take to the hospital for Breastfast, Lunch and Dinner, so my days at home as they always were busy, are even more busier.   I have even changed the way I cook, because I now cook homemade, because it is much better for us then using prepared organic goods.  (I made a roasted chicken with herbs last night...to cut up for other meals, and it was awesome!!)  I don't buy things in a tin, a can, a box, or any of that, all of it is organic and I prepare it all. We have changed the way we make sure things are sanitized.  We have always made sure to sanitize, but in terms we have never been so anal. Seriously, we have had to change that and wash our hands as often as possible and even when I'm at work, it has become a habit. We have changed how we think about things and how we react to things!  So, life as we once knew it, is now something that is totally different and we are ok with that.  Anything to keep our daughter healthy and the rest of us too!  So, the Coupon Mommy of 3, has to find new ways to save money and has already started looking into organic deals and how I can save money there!

My post is here because I want to say thank you!  Thank you all so much for the amazing work that you all have done, are doing and continue to do for us.  Your love, your comments, your support, your prayers all mean everything to us.  We do read every comment on Facebook, Caring Bridge, the blog and they partake in our life, I am sorry that I am not able to respond to them, but we do read them.

THANK YOU AGAIN!

Update and THANK YOU!

Hello fans and followers.  Its very early, because I am heading back to work today! Sorry, I'm a little behind on updating the Caring Bridge Site, but things have just been really busy! Actually very busy! But, I plan to update more tonight when I have sometime to do so, I hope, after the kids are down for the night!

Before anything, I want to say....THANK YOU!  And 50 times that and more.  The heart felt love, prayers, support and all that has been surrounding us during this journey that started only about a month ago has been absolutely amazing.  I am just overly amazed how people are just so AWESOME, that is the best way to subscribe it, because you all have been so amazing with all the support and love and donations.  I have to tell you all it is just amazing.  So many packages have been received for Emily and it was awesome while we were in the hospital for my husband to pick them up at the house and bring them, because they brought huge smiles to her face.  Things I never really thought about but the times that we are home, in between, there is just so much going on, the dinners that have been provided to us from friends, family and even Richmond Mommies mom's have been awesome and seriously has made life so much easier.  I can't begin to thank you guys enough for all the love and support you have given us and continue to do. 

THANK  YOU

This will be a very long road for us and I know that, and all that you all do and especially yours prayers, support and love mean so much to us.  That is really all I could ask for because this journey is by far one of the hardest things as a mother, or just as an invidivdual had to go through.  Its hard and honestly, in laymen terms, its sucks and in kid's terms, "It's not Fair!" and it't not.  But we are praying and thinking positive.

We did come home Sunday Morning from Emily's first round of chemo and will be back in two weeks for a second round as long as she doesn't get any fevers or any other problems.  We will have to follow up later this afternnon and then later this week to check her counts, but she is doing ok.  We are starting to notice some changes daily so as those changes take place,they become a little bit harder on us.  Her losing her hair is one that I'm not sure how she is going to react to, but again there are so many of  you out there that are making and sending her hats and I can't tell you how much these things mean to us. 

How can I say Thank You a million times and really reach out!  I hope you all know how many times that we have received something for Emily, or my other daughters or even my husband and I and have had tears in our eyes from the outpouring of love out there!  It is amazing, thank you!


Some facebook companies have asked that I post something about what is out there and while I feel weird doing this, I will.  But at the same time, I can honestly tell you, this is going to be a very long year for us.  VERY LONG and could even be longer.  While all I really ask for is lots and lots of prayers, because they mean so much to us, I know there are many of you out there that are doing more than that.  Here are a few that I know of because I have been in contact with them in one way or another:


There is a possibility that I have missed some, but just comment below with the link to them or even check out @Coupon Mommy of 3 Facebook, I know many are updating information there..  So many others did some prior for us and I just appreciate all that you all have been doing.  So, again, thank you!

Malia from Bumbledoo did an amazing job, Stephanie from Abby's Lane is doing a great job, Poppin Dots Boutique, CCBaby and CC Bums did an amazing job and Diaper Style!  All I can say is seriously "THANK YOU!"  And while I know there are others, I don't know all of them, so I just want to apologize if you were not listed.

Please remember, THANK YOU!  Emily and I have been working on "Thank You" Cards and many of you should start seeing them within a few weeks.  It gives her something to do at the hospital.

Also Emily would really like a telescope and we have found one on Amazon that would be amazing, so when I have moments I try to use Swagbucks to get my points up.  So far I have saved $30 on Amazon Gift Cards, but we need more.  Will you guys help us and sign up for Swagbucks so we can get more points on Swagbucks to get that for her?  I would love your help and it is very appreciated!

THANK YOU!

Continued Prayers and Support

First and foremost, I want to thank each and every one of you who have prayed for us and thought about us and even left us messages.  I want to say to have never been able to meet any of you and to have your support really means a lot. Support really helps when you are going through things that you can't simply understand. Our life has changed and will continue to change, so the thank yous, the thoughts and prayers are very much heart felt and thanked. I can't say thank you enough.   It also really means a lot when you have a community of people whom you have never met that would do anything for you and I honestly am just amazed by this and it really means us a lot to me and my family!

Secondly, my daughter came home from the hospital late last Wednesday.  We still are waiting.

If you are intersted, we are telling my daughter's story on Caring Bridge.  I have not finished updating the information because it is taking some time to do so, but I am working on it and once we get more answers, it will be updated more frequently with our process.

My 3 year old needs your prayers, my other girls do to and so do my husband and I as we continue this journey.  We appreciate your support and thoughtfulness.

Again please understand right now I am breaking from the blogging world, just giving an update because I have received so many emails some from sponsors wondering why I haven't done reviews and/or giveaways or posted there button.  Please understand,  I am coming back, I just don't know when at this point and everything is saved so that when I do come back all of that information will come back and be placed on the blog.  The other emails I have received  have been from some really sweet bloggers and even just followers checking in on us and I felt I owed all of you at least something that is going on!    I don't want to lose any of you, so I really wanted to let you know "THANK YOU, thank you for understanding the time away!"   My family needs my 24/7 attention and that is what I am doing! 
Lastly, many of you are asking if there is anything you can do....THANK YOU!....I wish I could just say, here is what I need, but I am not there yet.  So, I do appreciate it.  Its wonderful knowing you all care so much!

Thanks again for your support!

Family Medical Emergency

I'm not sure who all follows my facebook and who follows here, I wanted to give you all an update on my my absense and this will be short but sweet.  If you are my fan on facebook and read my status update, you all will notice an absense, because we are currently dealing with a Family Medical Emergency.  I'm updating my blog, because I want to reach out to all of my followers, my fans and even my sponsors who are waiting for reviews and/or giveaways from me.

I don't have time to answer emails at this point, in all honesty our 3 year daughter is our primary focus right now and doing what I need to do to keep up with work!  At this point, I'm not sure if I am ready to share what we are going through except for that we are going through a Family Medical Emergency and currently in the hospital with my daughter.  I'm overwelmed, I'm lost, I've cried so much, I'm confused, I'm a mommy, I miss my other girls!  I am many things that the past few days really fall into a blur! 

I will be out of touch from the blogging world and facebook world for sometime to gain some focus on my daughter and my other girls and to get my 3 year old healthy again! While I know I have some sponsors out there that are waiting for some reviews from me...at this point my family is more important to me and I believe that many of  you understand that and I will thank you for that!  I hope that at one point I can update and things like that, but I'm not ready for that!

Family and friends have come from far away and close and it has been a major blessing!  I know that it is what family is all about, but it amazes me to know they are there for us and so many would do anything we need at any time.

Please accept my apology for the delay and PLEASE IF YOU CAN DO ANYTHING FOR US, Please PRAY FOR MY DAUGHTER AND MY FAMILY.  We really need that right now!

Thank you!
