We were featured with LLS for the Man and Woman of the Year , and Edith was awarded for the Girl of the Year for 2016. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWEarJut5IY

A lot has happened in the last few years, Edith who is now 7 years old, strives to be a sweet young little girl who loves hot wheels, cars, basketball and My Little Pony.. Her favorite cartoon is Sponge Bob, and loves every Disney movie.


She received a wish from the Make a Wish Foundation, and was awarded to go Disneyland with the whole family. It was such a glorious time.. She loved it so much .. Edith has had many milestones after chemo therapy, in her school learning, with people, and just in general a happy go lucky girl. Although her health and some developmental delays still arise, but that doesn't mean it stops Edith from learning and moving forward...

We have also been a part of the LLS Light the Night walk for the past 5 years.. This past year she has been selected for the Girl of the Year for 2016 for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. There is something beautiful about Edith, that attracts many, not a lot of people would of have known that my daughter has had cancer at such a young age. Thank God for Awesome, Doctors, Nurses and the science of medicine. I give my thanks to the Lord almighty Jesus Christ for his blood, and much props to Children's Hospital of Oakland..

(My 2nd Home) We are truly blessed every morning, to have Edith alive and healthy .... What we learned from this journey, is that every day is priceless, and Edith is supposed to bring others hope, I as her mother had challenges along the way, but that doesn't stop me from teaching Edith to be a better person, to love and pray for everyone, even the ones that hurt us. Love conquers all. There is something about teaching others the Love and True Healing of Christ.

 Our lives have forever changed from that day forward June 6th, 2009. I didn't see a future, what I saw was that moment .. that day, that hour, that minute... One day at time..

 Edith knows what she went through, and will be able to speak on it one day, every time we are be able to talk about her journey brings others hope. Most of all Faith.. We will never be able to say why, or who, or what, but say, God helped us through.. Unfortunately along the way some of them kids didn't make it, but that doesn't mean their life is over, they have a new life up in heaven. I just pray for those families affected by Leukemia, or any other cancer.. I pray the Lord brings peace, and most of all strength.. But the ones that are still here, there is a battle that we can't see, and we will continue fighting for healing, hope, love, and FAITH.



Edith is 7 years old and is attending summer program, and is excited to start her 2nd grade year.. She is so full of hope, and love
