It was on July 9, 2012 that Hanna was diagnosed will High Risk ALL Leukemia. It`s been a tough year, lots of ups and downs, but with friends, family, and prayers, it has made it somewhat bearable. Without sounding like a total baby, maybe someday I won`t start crying when I think about what our little girl is going through. I guess I need to toughen up, just like Hanna.

 
I have not been very active in the forum lately but I try and keep up on Hanna's condition. She is a tough cookie, and we think about her all the time. Our prayers are with her. John your doing great keep up for her.
 
That smile says it all ! ! !

Our thoughts and prayers continue for Hanna and her family.

John,

I don't know much about your situation or know you personally, so I feel a bit uneasy just chiming in but here goes. I don't think anyone would call you a baby, for if something like this isn't worthy of tears, what is? Just as it's said bravery is not the lack of fear but pressing on when afraid, I don't think tough means that you don't weep. Jesus wept. Shoot, the Bible has an entire book dedicated to lamentation. I know those of us that have kids especially weep with you, sir.
 
You will never toughen up when it comes to your little girl and that is just fine :thumbup: She is an incredibly brave girl. Our thoughts and prayers are still coming your way.
 
I can't tell you how much I've cried when I became disabled. It's not only natural, but also appropriate. As a dear friend of mine, an emminent sociologist and a cancer survivor, put it, "Real men do cry.
 
Tell her to keep fighting.

Prayers still flowing.

If you need any help let me know.
 
Hanna, you look beautiful! Keep hanging in there you tough lil girl! :thumbup: Continuing to send prayers for you and your family.
 
Smoke and Prayers continuing!!! Tell Hanna congrats:D and there are many many thoughts of joy with and for her. Oh and Bro don't worry about that crying thing, it's just an expression, yours happens to be job;)
 
What a smile. I can only hope that I would handle something like this as well as she is. My continued thoughts and prayers are with Hanna and the entire family.
As for crying, let it rip bro. I can't even pretend that I wouldnt cry everytime I thought about it. Do whatever it takes to stay strong for Hanna and if that requires a few tears then so be it. The way you have kept strong for her proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are a man, tears and all.

May God bless Hanna and your entire family,
Garth
 
Forgot to add that if you ever need someone to talk to or just need someone to listen I am here.

Back in June Hanna was doing pretty good, so the Make A Wish Foundation sent Hanna and her family to Florida for a week. Right now her ANC counts are so low she can`t even go outside, they had to stop treatments until they go back up.



Hanna got to wear a princess dress for a day. Here she is with Mom, Dad, and sister Hayley.
