A years worth: Photo/ video dump : a year ago from today, my life has changed for the better. From losing people, gaining people, hanging with family, reconnecting with old friends, traveling, concerts, to starting a new job, to meeting the most sweetest and thoughtful man. This last year has truly been crazy and amazing. I’m so grateful for god, family, friends,and my boyfriend who have made the last year memorable. I can’t express how in the last year all the traveling, the concerts, the new friends, the old friends, my family, my sweet pets, and my boyfriend has truly made me feel more like myself, healed me and made me happier. Thank you all🩵🥹 even the little things played a role in my healing journey and happiness thank you all🩵

Praising God for the opportunity to be apart of you and Makayla’s special day. Forever thankful God moves the way He moves, and we ended up calling each other family.

Praying blessings over you and Makayla’s new marriage. Praying health over you both.

Pop is up in Heaven cheesing ear to ear, and is so proud of you. And so am I. Love you big time P.

Dear Pop, I love you. Three simple words with infinite meaning. This isn’t the simple “I love you”, this is the unconditional love for a family member. The love that never dies no matter the circumstances. I love you for being my Pop. All those times you took care of me when I was little. All those restless nights when I was a baby, you kept letting me spend the night, kept feeding me, changing me, and loving me. I love you for that. I love you for taking care of my dad and uncles. Thank you for leading the to the path God put in their life. Thank you for instilling in them the work-ethic to provide for a family and teaching them to support their kids. I love you for that. I love you for supporting your grandkids. I remember being a little kid and looking up in the stands to see you and Grandma sitting there, the excitement of that little kid can’t be beat by any athletic feat. Even in middle school it would push me to go that extra mile. Ik it wasn’t easy to come out all the time to watch us kids, but yet you still showed up cheering on your little Patriots and Rams. I love you for that. Lastly I love you for teaching me many lessons in our 15 years together, but one sticks with me more than any other. FIGHT. One you’ve been teaching me for about 13 years. When cancer was taking a toll on your body, you fought to come to holidays with the family and you fought to stay with us. When it would be easy to give up you kept fighting. I’ll keep that lesson from you for the rest of my life. I love for you that. What was in your body isn’t fair. Killers all in the world live with healthy bodies. I ask, why would God do this? I find my self with a simple answer. It isn’t God, it’s sin. The sin thats been in the world since Adam and Eve ate that apple. God was the reason you were in my life 15 years. Sin put in your body what the doctors called an incurable cancer. But I can’t believe it. Because you’re healed now in Heaven with no cancer. Your liver is healthier than it’s ever been. Your energy cancer took from you, God restored it. I love you and I miss you Pop. It isn’t goodbye. It’s see you again. So see you again. Sincerely, your grandchild Cooper. #4Pop
