Hattie's Cancer Journey
My daughter Hattie was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer called botryoid rhabdomyosarcoma in July 2013 when she was 16 months old. After about a year and a half of chemotherapy, radiation and multiple surgeries, she was declared cancer free in December 2014. I'm posting a photo and short reflection every day in 2015 to celebrate the end of treatment and reflect on the journey.

19. 8/6/2013 - First chemo pt. 3.
It was a long night in the hospital with little sleep and many changes of clothes for everyone. Hattie fell asleep for good late in the night and the nursing staff looked after her in the crib while mom and dad snuggled up on the cot and tried to get some sleep. We felt very small in a big, big world that night.
