I've been trying to think of what to say today for a little while now, but for those of you that have been wanting a current update about Martin's progress, this post is for you. It's also for those of you that have been asking for a long long time about a place where you could possibly help out our family financially.

Last week a sweet friend of mine started a YouCaring fundraiser for our family, and I've already been overwhelmed with the tender messages and memories that have been passed around with it, not to mention the kindness and love from so many people who have already contributed and/or shared the fund. Every dollar makes such a difference. That being said, please don't feel any pressure to help this way or even share for that matter. I already feel so so blessed at the many thousands of prayers and healing vibes, messages, and services that have been offered up on our behalf. Each one of those makes a difference too:)

As far as how he's doing, you can watch a very extensive update that I shared about 10 days ago on Periscope HERE, but since that time some more complications have arisen that have his doctors very concerned. They instructed me to take him to the ER yesterday in hopes of relieving some of the pressure in his abdomen from the growing tumors, but were told that there was nothing they could do for him.

My sweetheart is so so sick, and every day his fight gets harder and harder. Nothing could have prepared me for this, and it crushes all of us to see his body change and weaken, and his mind so confused. But even through the pain in his eyes, I can still see this strong and brave man that I love more than anything.

We have tickets to return to the hospital in Houston, TX next week for more scans and tests, as well as another round of his immunotherapy treatment if all goes as planned. In the meantime, we are doing everything we can to keep him nourished and resting, and praying for him to keep strong and hopeful.

Thank you again and again for so much continued support and encouragement. We're incredibly blessed to have such a huge and loving group of friends.

xoxo,
