Bereaved Parents | I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer
https://maggiesmomblog.wordpress.com/2015/07/27/bereaved-parents
I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. Our 2015 cheer season started tonight. For those who don’t know, Maggie was a cheerleader in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. This will be Molly’s second season cheering without her sister. Realistically, it would have been the same if Maggie were alive, but it’s knowing that she can’t be there, and remembering when she was, that hurts. Every season, it will hurt.

I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. It is August. In less than a month, summer vacation will end, and the kids will go back to school. The memes and jokes have started online. Parents can’t wait to send their kids back. You remember the Staples commercial… “It’s the most wonderful time of the year.” I don’t agree. Weren’t they just starting kindergarten? Time with our kids goes much too quickly. These teens will be off to college in only three short years.

I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. Some things are harder now that Maggie is gone. I am horrible at returning e-mails and Facebook messages. I don’t sleep as well as I used to. My memory isn’t always as good as it once was. Cooking, well, read my “Hot Dogs” entry to see how that’s working for me. Then there’s housework. I knew I would eventually be going through things from the. This entry was posted in childhood cancer. And tagged childhood cancer. I was a...

The Incomplete Puzzle | I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer
https://maggiesmomblog.wordpress.com/2015/07/10/the-incomplete-puzzle
I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. Tonight is the last night of our two week lake vacation. We pack up and head home tomorrow morning. While we’ve been here, I’ve been working on a jigsaw puzzle. I have referred to it affectionately as my anti-alzheimer’s puzzle; it has 1000 pieces which have challenged my brain to work differently. I haven’t completed it, which I’m ok with. But Maggie and I both worked to fit some pieces in while waiting for appointments.

I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. There are at least three younger cousins who are about Maggie’s age. I know that she would have loved these trips. She loved being in the water, and she loved family. She would have been so happy getting to know her cousins. Both years I have worn her Crocs while rafting, so she is with us.

Hot Dogs | I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer

I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. This is our forever. There is supposed to be five of us, but we are now four. I shouldn’t be facing this until September 2018, when Maggie should be starting college. Instead, I will be watching her friends go off into the world. Sixteen months, 14 days feels like forever, but it’s nothing compared to what looks like an eternity on the horizon without her. This entry was posted in childhood cancer. June 15, 2015. You are c...

I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. Maggie, Lydon, and Molly's Mom, Stefan's wife. September. The month that is difficult for so many reasons. School is starting. Cheer is in full swing. It’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. It’s Lydon’s birthday month, and I feel like he now gets the short end of the stick. He has been robbed, as we all have, by cancer. This entry was posted in childhood cancer. And tagged childhood cancer. First day of school. Wednesday L...

Sickness & Death | I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer
https://maggiesmomblog.wordpress.com/2015/07/05/sickness-death
I Made My Kid Walk to School with Cancer. Life, love, death, and childhood cancer. When your child is diagnosed with a potentially fatal illness you wonder why. She has a pure heart and soul, so why is she sick? She is kind, and too young to have done anything she might have to “pay” for. You run through the whole “sins of the father (mother)” thing. You make deals with God, Mother Nature, the universe, anyone who might listen. There is never an answer, though. What did we do? What does this mean? Addres...
