The Straw that Broke the Camel's Back

I have debated whether or not to post this. This is first and formost a recipe blog and I know you are coming for that. However, it is also a little of my life and what's going on. I've already shared with you about my Dad's cancer and my Father-in-law's car accident, and how each of those events sent us into shock and sadness.

Today I've decided to be blunt in desperation. This might be the straw that breaks me.

Today I am reeling.

Today I am in the hospital with my sweet baby girl, our youngest one, the two year old, she of the Sesame Street party. She has been diagnosed with kidney cancer.

We came to the emergency dept
and we now reside in the oncology ward.

Shock.
We would love to have your prayers for our little girl. We are depending on God and the amazing doctors to pull her through this. Yesterday was removal of her kidney and all went well. Today is recovering from surgery and getting rid of some of those tubes. Down the road is potentially chemo.

A share this burden with you as a reminder to give all of your loved ones a hug today and let them know how special they are.

You just never know what might happen.
