First of all - to explain the title: in college you get t-shirts for everything! Seriously. So, when Warner and I were sitting in the doctor’s office, after having been there probably for 3 hours, I looked at him and said, “If I have to go through this, I want my dang t-shirt!”
Okay, I am 23. I have cancer. I have oral cancer. Let me repeat. I am 23 and I have oral cancer. I am not 60 years old, I do not smoke, I do not drink alcohol, except maybe on my birthday. I do not even drink coke (I do love coffee though…a good caramel latte’ or café ole’ mainly) I compulsively wear polarized sunglasses because I’m afraid the sun will mess up my eyes. I take multivitamins, eat lots of veggies and fish and I would probably be a vegetarian if I didn’t like the occasional steak, and I obsessively play tennis. I’m a borderline health nut, only borderline though because I can be a little lazy and I love jelly beans – they are my weakness. And I have cancer!

Hey Smo..
Justin told me about the blog, so we thought we would write you something. Just wanted to let you know that we are praying for you. We are praying that You and Warner are growing closer to each other and closer to God through this time. We miss you, and look foward to seeing you again someday!
Love in Christ,
