UPDATE #3:
First and foremost we want to thank you all. The outpouring of love and support we have received for our miracle baby. It is amazing and humbling. It reminds us of how much of a testament she is to God’s love and light.
The common theme we continue to hear from the lives she has touched is that she is a shining example of God’s love and kindness and that she lights up any room she walks into. At only 9 years old, we have to believe that the fight she is in is just part of her story and testament and that this journey and struggle will only increase the love and kindness she has to show the world and we have to have faith that God has a bigger plan for her.
With that being said after 3 weeks we have an initial diagnosis and Hutton has what is called Undifferentiated Sarcoma. Though CHOC has been amazing, due to this diagnosis, we will be consulting with a sarcoma specialist to get a second opinion on Hutton’s treatment options. Though we do not want to delay the start of her treatment, we believe that having a specialist give their diagnosis and prognosis is important to ensure that Hutton doesn’t just start to receive the treatment she needs but that she receives the correct treatment she needs and not just the “standard operating procedure”. Will will hopefully know the what, where, and when of her treatment then. We will hopefully know more after Monday.
Again, we appreciate all the support we have received from the financial, to help with the upcoming medical costs, the gift cards and meals, which takes one more daily decision off our plate, and the Amazon purchases which will give Hutton a much-needed distraction both in and out of the hospital…but most importantly thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the love and prayers you all have shown Hutton.
Please continue to support her in any way you feel called to do so. More than ever before in my life I have been saying, there is no such thing as too many prayers, and I honestly believe that. We know Hutton has a very long road ahead of her and most likely things may get worse before they get better, so one thing we will continuously ask for over anything else is your prayers for Hutton; for her to be given extra strength, encouragement, love, and tenacity to fight this disease and for her to be given the peace, understanding, and strength to stay positive through the difficult times ahead.
