Whether you're an avid reader or scrolling social media today, please take a few minutes to read on. On January 8th, 2019, a very meaningful project goes live across all platforms. If you know our family, you know that Melissa and I have 4 children. What you may not know is that our 2nd eldest was diagnosed with brain cancer at the age of 20months. With the love, support and help from our faith, family, friends, all the medical staff and many unknown to us, Analise fought and has survived. Being a part of the this project is especially meaningful since 100% of proceeds will be donated to St Jude Children's Research Hospital. WANTED, AN OUTLAW ANTHOLOGY, brings together 20 authors' work and releases this Tuesday, January 8th 2019. It's on pre-order now across all platforms, check the comments for more information. "This anthology is dedicated our daughter, Analise Jordan Deanching. On November 14th, 2008, at the age of 20months, she was diagnosed with CPC, choroid plexus carcinoma. The prognosis was not unclear other than there was no cure for this type of cancer. This changed her and our lives forever. With the initial shock, time seemed to stand still and we lived moment to moment. Hanging on every word from the oncologists and pediatric icu staff while also trying to comfort Analise. With our older soon-to-be 4yr old, Sophia, we knew we had to move forward and create a new normal for our family. Thank God we had our families, friends, coworkers, and neighbors who helped us. Without that support system, prayers and positive thinking, we do not know we could have made it. She endured a brain biopsy, a few trips to the ER for seizures, routine hospitalizations for chemotherapy and to address her immunity levels, weekly outpatient chemotherapy, quarterly MRI’s and post treatment nausea. Analise is now 11, has two younger siblings, Paisley and Maximus. She has been out of treatment for several years, continues to take anti-seizure medication daily, has very minor seizures from time to time, and has annual MRI’s vs quarterly. We actively participate in raising awareness and money for pediatric cancer research. It’s the least we can do (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsTYrhqlaCQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ow8pyad7wbom
