A cancer diagnosis is nothing short of devastating for the person receiving it. When the patient is a preschooler who barely knows what’s going on, that burden falls on the parents. There is no feeling like the hopelessness of a mother who can’t spare her child from hurt and pain. There is no guide or manual for facing the world of childhood cancer. My weapons during this combat were faith, prayer, and a whole lot of love! Parts of this journey were very atypical, but if even the slightest aspect can help someone else navigate a little easier, it would’ve all been worth it.
