About Us

Our family of 6 (dad Adam, mom Sherry, big sister Abby and little brothers Isaac and Brady -- who was born on December 14, 2010) joined the ranks of pediatric cancer fighters when our 4-year old son Logan was diagnosed with a dangerous and highly malignant form of brain cancer in mid-August 2010. Logan's cancer journey began abruptly on Sunday, August 15, when his right eye suddenly turned inward during dinner. Twenty-four hours later, we were checking into Children's Hospital Oakland and finding out that life sometimes takes you places you'd never, ever imagine yourself going.

PLEASE Pray and Re-Post

It's not often that I ask you to re-post something, but today I feel the need. Although Logan's current condition isn't entirely unexpected, it's scaring the stuffing out of me and I'd like to know he's thoroughly covered in prayer.

Two days out of his stem cell infusion, the mucusitis is horrible, he has a cold, there's fluid in his lung, which is partially collapsed, and he's running a fever and on oxygen. He's going to be transferred to the PICU this afternoon so they can watch him for breathing problems. As a mother, it breaks my heart. It makes me wonder, at times, if God is in this at all. It feels as if He's turned his back on my sunshine. To see such awful suffering in the face of a child... it's an unspeakable injustice. Still, despite my frustrations, anxieties, worries, doubts and fears, I know that GOD can make him well with a touch.

So I'm asking, once again, for the upteenth time, for a big rally for Logan. Please pray and re-post where you will. We need help. Thank you.

    Praying, loving you all, and trusting that God is there, in the midst of your personal exile, even when you can't see Him!! (Ezekiel 1)

    Sherry, I am a friend of Tracee's, and I just want to let you know I am thinking of you all and sending positive, comforting thoughts. My best friend was saved by an experimental autologous stem-cell transplant when she was a teenager, in the 1980s, and she has been in remission for over 20 years. Hoping and praying for the same triumphant outcome for your little Logan.

    Hoping the PICU is giving him the turn-around he needs. I'm praying each and every night but tonight I will also pray while I clean the house.
    May better health tomorrow provide you some peace on Mother's Day. Logan and his siblings are blessed to have a mom who loves them so very much.

    I am praying for your little Logan. That the Lord would rebuke the enemy, bind up the enemy from his body. Never to be returned again. I pray Lord, that there would be a complete heaing, 100% healing. In Jesus Holy, holy name, Amen.
