My beautiful niece Gracie was recently diagnosed with Neuroblastoma (cancer). It is still early in the diagnosis and we are awaiting results to know more about the fight that Gracie will face. I've created this blog as an outlet for friends and family to stay informed about her journey and a way for friends and family to make anonymous contributions towards her care and the mounting expenses her family will face. Gracie is a fighter and the bravest 3 year old I know. Hundreds of people love you Gracie and are praying for you. "Be strong and of good courage for the Lord thy God is with thee" Joshua 1:9

Overdue Update


So, I haven't been on in 3 months and they have changed the blogging on me! sorry for the messed up pictures, I can't quite get them where I want them! lol. anyway, Im so sorry I never posted about her March scans!! Hopefully you assumed that no news is good news, as that is generally the case! and it is in this case also!! Her scans were clear once again and we are grateful! Gracie has enjoyed being in girl scouts and Kindergaten this year and has done really well. She got all dolled up to walk the red carpet for the 100th bday of girl scouts. That is the pic in the turquise dress. She looked like a princess :) also there are a few other pics of easter and selling cookies!The other picture is Chloe and I with our 10 inch ponytails we donated to http://www.childrenwithhairloss.us
The picture below is when we were sitting in the car waiting for Chloe's piano lesson, and we found her hair that he had saved from when she first started chemo. My mom had wrapped it in a paper towel and it has been in the console ever since. She held it up to her head and it is the exact same color as before! Later that same day, she lost one of her top front teeth by taking a bite of a doritos locos taco! She lost the other top tooth about a week later. She is so cute with her little toothless grin.




This is an outfit our friend Michelle bought in Europe. She is always traveling and sending Gracie fun things!! Gracie loves to wear it and even wore it to church today! She dances around like a real spanish dancer. We looked up videos on youtube of spanish dancers. :)
Gracie is doing well and will graduate Kindergarten on Wednesday!!! What an amazing year it has been post-treatment. She goes for her 1 year post treatment scans next month! We are planning on stopping to see Briley since we will be moving at the end of June. Also, Briley was in an awful car accident with her brother and Grandmother last week. Her grandmother died instantly and Briley suffered two broken femurs and a broken pelvis. She was able to go home from the hospital yesterday after 9 days in the hospital. She will be in a wheel chair for a couple months. please pray for her and her family and donate if you can!! http://www.teambriley.blogspot.com
