I love sharing things with you here, friends. You really can't know what it means to me to be able to unload our lives here with you and to have you all cheer us on, every step of the way. And usually when I have something to share, I can't help but rush to my laptop and get a post up for you.
The past week has been different, because I've been dreading sharing this with you. I had hoped that we'd get different news on Friday. But we didn't.
My sweet Mimi, my mom's mom, has lung cancer.
After an ER doctor indicated his belief a couple of weeks ago that she had a cancerous tumor on her lung, her pulmonologist confirmed. They're doing a biopsy this week to see what they're dealing with, and they'll hopefully develop a game plan after that.
If I can, I would just ask for your prayers. She's tough and handling the news incredibly well, but this road is difficult for even the strongest and most faithful people. She reads my blog faithfully, so I know any kind words would be very much appreciated by her.
Love you, Mimi! We're all praying faithfully for a quick recovery.

I'm so sorry Ryan, Keeping you and your family in my prayers.
Saying a prayer for your family, Ryan...
I know what you mean about keeping the "not good" stuff off the blog. I think we all keep more off-line than we think.
I am so sorry, Ryan! Will keep her and your family in our prayers. Hopefully they find out they are dealing with something early on and easy to treat!
Thoughts and prayers for you Mimi, and the rest of your family.
Lifting your sweet Mimi and your family up in prayer, love.
That's terrible. :( I will include your family in my prayers.
Sometimes you have to share the bad stuff for support. I'm sorry to hear about your Mimi :(
Praying for you and your family Ryan!! God is in the healing business and He will take care of your Mimi!
So sorry..:( Praying for you all...
As you know, I am pretty open on mine..but for me it is healing...
I'm so sorry to hear that Ryan! You will both be in my prayers. I did want to share that my grandmother had lung cancer 15 years ago and has been in remission for 14 after successful treatment!
Ryan I am so sorry. I will be praying for your Mimi. Full recovery! Much love.
I'm so sorry, your family is in my prayers!
Praying for your grandmother!!
We just celebrated my Mimi's 85th birthday this past Sunday. Mimi's are tough and so very special. I'm praying for God's hands to remove this cancer.
So sorry! Many prayers for your Mimi that she'll overcome this! xoxo
Awe Ryan! I'm praying for you and your family to find the strength to pull through this rough spot. You know that God is on your side. You are a Godly woman and I am sure that you get it from your Godly family. Isaiah 41:10
Mimi, I know you are just begining this journey and will overcome this quickly. Psalm 119:28 & Psalm 27:1 are two scriptures that come to mind for you. I pray that God heals you.
He is the Great Physician...keeping Mimi in our prayers!!
Praying for you- I lost my grandma to cancer a couple years ago. Such a hard thing to go through. Praise God that He has all our days taken care of- and the end is never the end with Him :)
I will definitely say a prayer for your sweet Mimi. <3
So sorry to hear this! Lots of prayers!
Hey sweet girl. I'm just now catching up and blogs...and just seeing this. My stepfather has lung cancer right now (diagnosed last August). It's just an awful disease (well all cancer is...) I will definitely be praying for y'all. If you ever need to chat...you know where to find me!
And...I completely know what you mean about what to share on the blog. I just posted a whole ramble about not knowing what to post as I deal with this disease in our family. Hugs and prayers to y'all!!!
