Five Years

October eleventh marked the five year anniversary for Tammy’s original diagnosis.  I don’t have  words for what these years have been like or what they have meant to us, so I thought I would just show it in pictures.  I don’t have any answers to how to live life.  All I know is that we have tried to “live” through it.  We tried to never let cancer stop us from living the life that we wanted.  Sometimes it is really tough, but just because somethings are hard sometimes doesn’t mean that you should stop doing them.  Because they are hard we appreciate them so much more.

Tammy was Thirty-nine when she was diagnosed.  I was thirty-eight.  Tanner and Kylee were both thirteen.  Morgan was eleven and Tucker was five.  We have all grown so much.
