Yes, this is a new journey in your life that you did not plan on, but with God as the center you will make it through no matter what may come your way. Some days it will be hard to believe but just keep moving forward - tomorrow is always another day.<BR/><BR/>Our family has just been down this road and we now have a new journey a head of us. We have learned and know that it is so important to have God in the center - along with a wonderful support system in the community and beyond.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02257867981110574816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7042178429812658517.post-49133579415810361312009-01-28T10:13:00.000-06:002009-01-28T10:13:00.000-06:00Jess, I have no idea what to say.

Your strength is amazing and I pray that God will continue to give you what you need to endure through this process. <BR/><BR/>We may not have ever been close during high school—but the 3 of you are very high in my thoughts and prayers. I'd really like to say something amazing that will just miraculously help you feel better, but I know that is impossible, so do know that you have so much support, from those right there with you to those of us who are now far away. Prayers are being thrown up to God for Cora from both near and far.

This is from Janene Regier Freerksen whom I believe, you now have her phone number if you need to call her, for someone who's been in your shoes. Here is her note today:<BR/><BR/>"Paula,<BR/>Dr. David Rosen is the doctor who referred our friend Canon to NYC. When I searched for him online, I found links for him at Wesley and Via Christi. <BR/><BR/> He is the COG (Children's Oncology Group) contact in Wichita. COG is the nationwide childhood cancer organization that runs most of the studies and trials for different types of cancer. He will be very familiar with NYC and the other places in our country who are experts in treating Neuroblastoma. <BR/><BR/>I dropped the family a note on their blog. I know these are the darkest of days. My Joshua prayed for Cora last night and we will continue to do so. <BR/><BR/>God bless you as you continue to reach out to them and minister to them in this time of need. Let me know if you need any ideas!
