From Shelby:
Never in a million years did I ever think I would be making this post. I don’t even know where to begin. I’m not good at this, so y’all bear with me please.
We were told Monday evening that Evie had been diagnosed with leukemia.
I never thought I’d even associate this word with one of my children. The last two days have been a whirlwind. My world has been falling apart around me. It doesn’t even seem real. I’ve been angry. I’ve been in denial. I’ve been numb. I’ve gone through bouts of crying where I can’t stop. I’ve been numb. Every emotion in the last two days. I still can’t wrap my head around it. And I don’t know what the future holds, but I KNOW for a fact that our God is holding my Evie in His hands. And I know she is going to come out on the other side of this stronger than ever. It’s going to be a long hard road ahead of us, but the outpouring of love and prayers has made it bearable. I knew we had wonderful friends and family. But wow! I cannot get over how wonderful everyone has been. There will never be enough words to to describe the gratitude we feel towards everyone. My heart is just so overwhelmed.
I know I’m leaving out a lot of details but it’s ALOT right now. And we are still processing this ourselves. But please pray for Evie tomorrow specifically that the day goes by quickly. They will be performing a spinal tap, bone marrow sample, and placing a port. But they aren’t sure when they will get her back because they are very busy tomorrow. She isn’t allowed to eat or drink after midnight, so tomorrow will be tough. She will receive her first chemo medication as well.
They expect us to be here until next Wednesday. And I’m so scared. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t. Please pray that God eases Evie’s nerves and mine and her daddy’s as well. We just need all the prayers and I know our prayer warriors are already on it.
Thank you everyone again, from the bottom of our hearts. The love everyone has shown Us is unbelievable and I thank God for the wonderful people we have in our life.
