Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40:30-31




"YOU GAIN STRENGTH, COURAGE, AND CONFIDENCE BY EVERY EXPERIENCE IN WHICH YOU REALLY STOP AND LOOK FEAR IN THE FACE.

YOU ARE ABLE TO SAY TO YOURSELF: "I HAVE LIVED THROUGH THE HORROR. I CAN TAKE THE NEXT THING THAT COMES ALONG..."

YOU MUST DO THE NEXT THING YOU THINK YOU CANNOT DO.
Eleanor Roosevelt



This page was started in 2004 when our son Cameron was diagnosed with NB Stage IV. Cameron went through 7 rounds of high dose Chemo, 2 pre-transplant rounds of chemo, 2 stem cell transplants in Texas, a 12 hour surgery performed by the worlds best surgeon for this kind of tumor in NY at MSKCC, 4 weeks of daily radiation, and 2 doses of Accutane. He went through 30-40 blood transfusions, 20-30 plattlete trasfusions and over 50-60 scans and tests. This was all done in a 14 month period. Although he endured all of these things it only bought us time with our son. He went to be with Jesus on July 13th at the age of 4 years 6 months and 3 days. Feel free to read our story and learn what our life was like through our sons journey of childhood cancer. It is now used to help people realize what life is like for those trying to understand us and hopefully there for those who have been in our shoes and just need someone that understands them. Please keep all those still fighting in your prayers along with their families for it is a difficult life to live. Thank you for everyone out there that has been by our sides through our good times and our bad. If it werent for people like you where would we be?
God Bless You All,
Mike, Jamie, Angel Cameron, Madison and baby Hadley

TRY TO UNDERSTAND
Last night while I was trying to sleep,
My son's voice I did hear
I opened my eyes and looked around,
But he did not appear.
He said: "Mom you've got to listen,
You've got to understand
God didnt take me from you, mom
He only took my hand.
When I called out in pain that night,
The instant that I died,
He reached down and took my hand,
And pulled me to His side.
He pulled me up and saved me
From the misery and pain.
My body was hurt so badly inside,
I could never be the same.
My search is really over now,
I've found happiness within,
All the answers to my empty dreams
And all that might have been.
I love you all and miss you so,
And I'll always be nearby,
My body's gone forever
But my SPIRIT WILL NEVER DIE!
And so, you must all go on now,
Live one day at a time.
Just understand -
God did not take me from you,
He only took my hand.

My silent child
our precious baby,
Close to my heart
I'll keep you with me.
An important job
God has for you,
There is love to give,
and work to do.
He needs an angel
strong but small,
To shine light on many
and give love to all.
Before you go
I give you this,
half my heart
and one last kiss.
We'll miss you dearly
that we know,
But by God you were
chosen,
So to heaven, you must go

by Kelly Lancor



God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put his arms around you
And whispered, come to Me
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes THE BEST!












Love is not a matter of counting the years, it's a matter of making the YEARS count -Theophrastus






Be who you are and say what you feel Because those who mind don't matter And those who matter don't mind.
Dr. Seuss

What Makes A Mother? I thought of you and closed my eyes, and prayed to God today. Asked what makes a mother and I know I heard Him say, A mother has a baby. This we know is true. But God, can you be a mother, when your baby's not with you? Yes, you can. He replied with confidence in His voice. I give many women babies. When they leave is not there choice. Some I send for a lifetime, and others for a day. And some I send to fill a your womb but there's no need to stay. I just dont understand this, God, I want my baby here. I took a breath and cleared my throat and then I cried a tear. I wish I could show you what your child is doing today. If you could see your child smile with other children and say. "I went to earth to learn a lesson of life and love and fear. My Mommy loved me, oh so much, I got to come straight here. I feel so lucky to have a mom who had so much love for me. I learned my lesson very quickly. My Mommy set me free." "I miss my Mommy, oh so much, but I visit her each day. And when she goes to sleep at night, on her pillow is where I lay. I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek and whisper in her ear, "Mommy, dont be sad today, Im your baby and I am here." So you see, my dear sweet one, your baby is okay. Your baby is here in My Home and this is where he'll stay. He'll wait for you with me until your lesson is through. And on that day that you come Home, he'll be waiting at the gates for you. So now you see what makes a Mother... It's the feeling in your heart. It's the love you had so much of. Right from the start. Though some on earth may not realize you are a Mother, until their time is done. They'll be up here with me one day. And know your're the best one.
