My Story

27 Mar 2021

I first signed on in 2017 because I was riding anyway and it is a good cause.

Two years ago I asked if I could ride for Lillian, her parents allowed me to honor her fight.

Her mother posted this today 2-4-21. On Tuesday after we got home from Lillian’s port removal I got the call from Lillian’s oncologist and her spinal fluid has leukemia in it. So what that means is that she is relapsing. There was a 5-10% chance this could have happened. So today we went back to Cities for a bone marrow biopsy and an MRI. What we know after today is she has healthy bone marrow but we don’t know exactly what kind of cancer we are fighting this time and what our treatment plan is. We are hoping to get all the results by early next week so we know what the plan will be.

Lillian is taking this all in stride when we told her the news she told us we fought it once and we will fight it again. Nate and I are still in shock and were not prepared for this at all.
