We are Home

​We are home.
Glory to God.
It’s an understatement to say that these past few months, especially these last weeks of bone marrow transplant, have been some of the most difficult moments of our lives. And yet through all the pain and grief, we know we have never been alone. God has been present to us in new and miraculous ways. Your prayers, meals, messages, generosity, holy hours, tears, and encouragement have meant more to us than we could ever explain. We truly believe that the love of God has become tangible to us through our people. Thank you.

EvanMarie still has a long road ahead. For the next few weeks, she will continue IV nutrition for 12 hours each day and will return often to the hospital for labs and blood transfusions. Radiation begins around the first week of June. But honestly, we are not thinking too far ahead right now.

Right now, we are simply grateful.
Grateful to be together at home. Grateful to hear her laugh again. Grateful to watch her light return more each day.

This weekend she even got to attend her big brother Dom’s college graduation, a moment that felt almost impossible not long ago.

There is still healing ahead. There are still deep valleys to walk through. But today we are resting on the mountaintop, soaked in the goodness of God and the gift of life.

Thank you for standing with us through it all. Thank you for your love. 

Glory to God in all things. He is making us all better.
