Sweet Tuesday

Here's Tuesday tearing up the oncology play room. This was taken last night. She's such a gorgeous little girl, inside and out.

It's been awhile since my last post. I have to admit, I've been getting lazy about it. Now that the kids are so mobile, it's difficult to find time to sit down and sort thru pics, type something up or edit a video clip.

However, I'm motivated by a beautiful little girl named Tuesday. Tuesday is the daughter of a good friend, JK. I've never met JK in person, but we belong to a twin group and we've exchanged stories, pictures and videos of our families and confided to one another. We've shared our good news and vented our frustrations to the board and we've all been there for each other.

So now, our group is rallying around Tuesday who was diagnosed with cancer. She's in Stage 4 with Neuroblastoma. She's a very sick little girl and JK is asking for prayers. We're praying Tuesday gets well very soon. We're praying for Tuesday's twin sister, who is missing her sister. We're praying for her older brothers who miss their sister and their parents. And we're praying for JK and her husband to have strength, support and faith to get them through this difficult time.

Our group has been brainstorming what we can do to help this amazing family. I have to admit, we've come up with some wonderful ideas. My favorite is having each member of the group pick a week to send a care package to the family. We're scheduling it so it arrives on a Tuesday. Because of how many wonderful women we have in our board, my week isn't until Thanksgiving! If you'd like to help or make a donation to Tuesday's fund, please click on the link on the left side of this page. We just want to do all we can for Tuesday and her family.
