Comments on: Day 13, the Elephant and the Whale /2018/04/03/day-13-the-elephant-and-the-whale/ A blog to record the journey of our 6 year old daughter Amber's progress, which began when she was rushed to the ER on March 22 2018 with a hemorrhaged tumor that caused a stroke, and the discovery that she has glioblastoma, a very aggressive form of brain cancer. We're going to make this journey in Amber's Way – with some spunk, a smirk, and a ton of hope and faith.

Amber’s progress is a prime example for me of these “Easter moments”. It brings me great joy to read about her progress each day.
You all continue to be in my prayers.

As Amber progresses, I would encourage you to inquire about pet therapy that may be available at CCMC. Lots of research shows so many beneficial effects and I’ll bet she’d love to feel a furry head and a wet nose!
