    I agree with Michael – this sucks and we are all angry. You should not have to be dealing with this at all. Yet everyday you continue to fight and everyday you continue to win. Ultimately you will get it out of you forever and be the supreme champion of the world. We all love you and hold you in our hearts everyday. Keep fighting, keep laughing and feel free to have a tantrum or 2 or 200 – if anyone deserves to throw a tantrum it is you!! So cry and yell and stomp your feet but never stop fighting. You are winning so keep going. I love you lots and think about you everyday. Remember why you are fighting – it is such a fight worth fighting. It is so worth it and I cannot wait for the day in the near future when you kick this cancer out of you forever. Keep going, keep winning and keep being the amazing, inspiring, beautiful you. Always loving and BELIEVING, Sadie

    Jacquie, You inspire so many lives as we read your Mom’s daily messages. Pray that you are stronger today . Missy and I were in to see you about three weeks ago but you were at home that Monday. She tried to donate platelets but was not accepted. Each day I wear the purple bracelet and think often of your courage and know that you have always been a true fighter and you will win this most important race. We all believe in you! Love- the Trosterud’s

    Jacquie, Sharon, Torey and TJ, As immensely, incredibly and unimaginably difficult your moments are…you have been doing the fight and getting through it and you will keep on going and moving forward through all your steps and goals. Just keep believeing in all good things and hang tight to all your dreams. There are no words to describe emotions felt and no words to ease it, but we are all wishing and believing and fighting. Rest, feel better and believe! Sara

    Jax. It was nice to see you Monday for a few minutes to witness and better understand your struggle. You have a core of beautiful strong people that surround you and bring the fight home each and every day. The strength you all have built as individuals and as a family, will continue to lead you through the days and months that lie ahead. Stay focused knowing that so many believe in you and in your strength to fight. You will win!

Your story has been spread even more today, and people are amazed at your strength, as am I. Keep smiling, keep fighting, and always, always keep Believing. God Bless, Casey

    Hi Jacquie, Just thinking about you and your family, all the time and wishing you better, brighter, easier, happier days ahead. Continue to do what you are doing, keep up the great work with the exercise. You are doing a remarkable fight through all of this!!! I noticed Alicia wrote “see ya wouldn’t want to be ya”…that is so wild, because that is one of Michaels favorite lines. He taught it to Connor and Elise as soon as they could talk. I will be surprised if he does not address that line…somehow they sure have a connection in the world of space and your website! Take care of you and I send a hug and a hand hold to your mom. Love, Sara

    My dear dear friend “At the timberline where the storms strike with the most fury, the sturdiest trees are found.”I don’t know how you continue to fight this fight, but every single day you do. And everyday that you wake up, ready to fight this fight again, is one more day that you have fought cancer and have WON!!!! Sadie’s last post just inspired me so much, its so easy to get bogged down in the here & now, and let cancer & leukemia run your life. but this is YOUR life! Leukemia is only one part of YOUR LIFE. It is YOURS, yours to do as you wish! This life where all you think about cancer, will not be the life you lead for forever… so just keep on thinking of the near future, when you can finally take 100% charge of your life again and for once and for all can say “see ya wouldn’t wanna be ya!” to cancer! I love you. Never forget how many of us there are out there, whom you have touched, inspired, and made BELIEVE. You are simply and utterly amazing. Keep fighting the good fight, YOU CAN DO THIS!!! WE BELIEVE<3 delish <3

    Hello Beautiful, My boss just sent me an email from a Relay participant who had Leukemia 8 years ago. She was hospitalized for a year and now is doing well and perfectly healthy. He said looking at her you’d never even know. There is life beyond Leukemia. Always remember that – right now your life is revolving around it but it won’t forever. It will revolve again around normal things – teaching, dating, working out, fast food and maybe even the IB since that is something we will never grow out of 🙂 You and your family are facing this and fighting this battle everyday and while I know it’s so hard to think of anything else right now you will be able to soon. Remember that and don’t lose sight of it. You are going to beat this and BOY are we going to celebrate. So keep fighting and focusing on it now but always remember that you will get to be ’normal’ again. You are SO strong and SO brave and SO inspiring and I am SO lucky and blessed to be your friend. Loving you lots and always BELIEVING, <3 Sades
