9 years ago

My sweet husband was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma nine years ago today.

No one can deny that he has lived life to the fullest in these past years, a promise he made to himself while undergoing treatments.

I met Kyle while he was 3 years in remission and we celebrated in style in London at 5 years. At 8 we felt lucky to be in China and lucky to be alive.

Each year on this very special day, we like to do something as a family, celebrating life to the fullest. This year we will all go to Disneyland together.

Hoyer and I are just glad to live this full life with Kyle.

Kyle,
Thanks for surviving, thanks for fighting, thank you for being here to love and be loved.

Congrats to Kyle! It is an important day to celebrate. My bestie had it 11 years ago.

Awesome! Those 9 years were taken 1 day at a time. Take each new year the same way.
