Support Madison's Journey to Healing

"95% of the surgeries are successful - Madison, you are in the 5%"

These are the words we heard in July at our 1 year follow up appointment at MD Anderson with world renowned neurosurgeon Dr McCutcheon. As the words in this appointment rocked me to my very core, my physical body overwhelmed and frozen as I could not believe what we were seeing in the scans and hearing...

I have the greatest respect and appreciation for the transparency, the authenticity as Dr McCutcheon told us both, he has no idea what has caused this, the next steps, the protocol - no answers. He said - we don't know if it will grow, change, go away, shrink.

We don't know. And if and when we do the surgery again, if it will come back or not?

My sweet Madison went through so much the first time... To hear the mass is back and at 7mm - this completely broke her beautiful little spirit. I fought to find words of hope as she told me - I DONT WANT TO DO THIS AGAIN. Why mom???

And I have watched her practice being present and we are both practicing, as she continues to participate in life one healing moment at a time.

The original mass was found at 9mm and was 10mm at the time of her neurosurgery March 2023. The mass was identified as a cyst at the time of surgery and Dr. McCutcheon explained, until the surgery - they did not know if it was a cyst or a tumor.

We are taking steps again on this journey... I am not good at asking for help, but I am for the first time vocalizing with the permission of my sweet Madison - we need help. I will search the ends of this earth for her healing... At this time, we are lining up meetings with homeopathic alternative options, all avenues of healing and this BEGINS with a healing retreat Nov 5th. Madison expresses emotions and processes through art. We are inviting all central nervous system work and regulation as she walks through this completely surrendered and trusting God to show us the way.

We will return for scans at MD Anderson, and we will need help. Many have asked "how" they can help? Pray - for upmost healing and clear direction for me, faith, hope and trust. BELIEVE with us for her healing as we will continue to explore all options.

The medical bills, expenses - I trust, we will figure out. And that begins with me asking for help. I also ask when seeing her, seeing me - join us in the journey of faith and please do not feel sorry for her - she is practicing being present & alive in gratitude - please join us in this and if you want to contribute - THANK YOU! Madison is living life one healing moment at a time... aren't we all.
