It's been a while! I'm doing great and getting closer and closer to my dream and passion of becoming a nurse. First semester went beautifully, and second semester has already cast its burdens, but every single step will be worth it in the end!

Today I had my IV skills check off, and passed! Every test, every check off, every study session means I am one step closer to helping kids just like me.

World cancer day is just another day for average people, but for me, it is a huge day to celebrate God's blessings he has provided me. Although cancer itself should not be celebrated, those who suffer should be known and celebrated for their strength.

I thank everyone for the ongoing support and love!

It’s been a while since we’ve shared an update on our golden girl, so here we go…

To start, she just wrapped her first semester of nursing school with all Bs! She’s working as a private caregiver and hoping to land an externship at Northside Hospital in their Neuro ICU. To say the least, she’s crushing it!

As far as “George” is concerned - he’s still hanging out. The tumor is stable - no growth, no shrinkage. There is a new “lesion” in the left hemisphere that we’re going to keep an eye on, but Dr. Aguilera feels confident that it is currently benign.

Her Sjögren's and Lupus create daily challenges for her, but in true Abigail fashion, she pushes through. She’s such a trooper.

Our golden girl continues to blow us away with her strength and resilience. Thank you all for your continued prayers and support!

Our golden girl has officially applied to the nursing program at Gordon State, she’s booked her TEAS test, and she’s being considered for a scholarship from My Hometown Heroes, Inc.

She won’t know whether she made it into the nursing program or whether she’s been chosen for the MHH scholarship for several weeks, but you’re welcome to read her essay submission. If you feel led, you can donate directly to the MHH project where she would receive 80% of all donations made in her honor. Most importantly we ask that you keep our girl in your prayers as she prepares for a moment she’s dreamt of for so long.

We’re wrapping up 2024 with a stable MRI and a new specialist, Dr. Patterson with endocrinology. Abigail’s favorite nurse, Leah, works closely with this doctor so we took that as a God wink😉. She gave Abigail a little scolding for not having on her “pink”, along with a couple of jugs that she will be filling up first thing next year😂. Chemo did its job at stabilizing the tumor growth, but it’s left Abigail with some ongoing issues that we’ve got to get to the bottom of🩸💊🔍.

In even better news, our golden girl finished the semester on the Dean’s List and officially submitted her application to the nursing program. Our hope for this next year is continued tumor stability 🧠🎗️ and an acceptance into the GSU Nursing Program 💙👩🏼‍⚕️💚.

MRI is done, and we’re hoping for the best gift of all - a stable scan. Merry Christmas, everyone! 🎁 🎗️
