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.

Tribute

I'll be back to share more. Eventually. For now, I wanted to drop off a link to the tribute I wrote to my little Sunshine a few days ago. I know this kind of thing can be hard to read, but please, give it a chance because Logan's life here wasn't a sad one and his return Home isn't only a reason for tears. He didn't live a life in vain. He'd want us to dance. So in his honor, live, and live well. Love fully. Forgive. Share.

Tribute to My Big Hearted Little Hero

  5. I read your loving tribute from the link off FB, but just read it again now. I am still utterly amazed at how God has used you, strengthened you, to spread Logan's story so powerfully and so beautifully. Praying for all of you, and just thankful for sweet Logan.
    My sister just lost her friend/co-worker to cancer this past Sunday, almost exactly a week after Logan went Home. She speaks of her friend Denise in a very similar way to how you speak of Logan....two people who were just complete rays of sunshine in others lives, always making you smile and always making you feel happier than you might have been before seeing them.
    So thankful that their stories can live on and be spread around the world.
    Logan really is a hero, and I'm glad even after he is not here on earth anymore, that people will still be learning about him and learning from him. Amazing.
    Love you guys.

  6. I have shared Logan's story on my facebook page and continue to think about him and your family. I saw your husband and son at the bone marrow drive at Mohr last week. I don't know him, but was compelled to give him a {tear-soaked} hug. I'd like to think I would have been at the drive on my own. But the truth is, I was feeling the delicacy of life because of Logan's passing, and I do believe that is why I felt such an urgency to go.
    Still praying for your family and also that Logan will continue to touch lives in his wake.
