Birthday: 6 months woohoo 🥳

-


Happy birthday to Me! It’s my birthday y’all! I mean isn’t God good? I means just amazing? I don’t think that a month ago, when my mom got a call about that pictures of me, that I would be shouting out THANK YOU! Jesus you are so marvelous to me. I am the big 6 months, and I couldn’t be happier. Now do I get a cake or something? I mean that’s what I’ve heard. Maybe a milk popsicle or something! If I could shout I would praise Jesus all day, but what I can do is smile and laugh, so I’m sure he knows.

As of now I’ve been home for about 24 hours. I’ve managed to throw up a few times.  Not sure what that’s all about, but I do know I was basically starved for over 12 hours, and well I’ve finally been able to eat. Let’s just chalk it up to me being greedy, along with the dose of chemo. 
Did my mom tell you that they took my chest button out. Concern about infection, so now I have a little ‘pin Rose’ drain: doesn’t look like a drain at all. Oh that other new button is in my stomach. As far as I know it’s called a ‘mickey’ gastrostomy tube. Now from the conversations I’ve had with my siblings this tube has nothing to do with Mikey mouse. Few reasons for getting it placed: 
✅dropped from like the 50th to 10th percentile
✅I don’t like taking medicines
✅I will have to receive another round of chemo and I may end up not liking much in my mouth (effects of chemo)
Now the doctor says I should start eating some foods by mouth if I want. So far I’ve tried: bananas, sweet potato and today beans! Not bad!
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my day, with even a little stroll in my backyard. 
Words cannot express my deepest gratitude as many of you have been walking with my family and I: 
✅cooking/cleaning
✅praying 
✅reaching out to to offer help
✅supporting us

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to  change.James 1:17
My mom says that me and my siblings are gifts. I’m grateful I have been a gift to my family. 

Farther God thank you for this day as I have been given the gift  of life. May you continue to use Mac to glorify yourself holy name Jesus. Continue to keep him strong as we proceed to battling this diagnosis.

    And I am sure of this: that the One who began a good work among you will keep it growing until it is completed on the Day of Christ Jesus.

    Lyrics - The Blood Will Never Lose It's Power

    The blood that Jesus shed for me (Emerson) way back on Calvary. The blood that gives me (Emerson) strength from day to day l. It will never lose its power.

    It reaches to the highest mountain, it flows to the lowest valley. The blood that gives me (Emerson) strength from day to day. It will never lose its power.

    It soothes my doubts and calms my fears, and it dries all my tears. The blood that gives me (Emerson) strength from day to day. It will never lose its power.

    It will never lose, it will never lose, it will never lose its power.

    Hallelujah, Happy birthday!!!!!

Caution, this post is real, as they all are. However it may make some of you uncomfortable.  Have you every watched Moana? There is a scene where moana is after Maui. Well in the middle of the night as she is voyaging there is a storm, she ask the water to help. She wakes up ship wrecked on an island and is upset, because she believes she is off course. She realizes she landed on the island where Maui has been. Well let me give you a better picture. The disciples sitting in a boat, and there is a bad storm. All the while Jesus is asleep. WHAT! The disciples in fear of drowning awoke Jesus.  “And they went and woke him, saying, "Save us, Lord; we are perishing." And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?"” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭8:25-27‬  Since Emerson was diagnosed I have held on ...

New Beginnings...

So as many of you may know our family is not on any sort of social media. However since the birth of our 3rd child, Emerson Daniel, this past summer, I wanted an opportunity to keep those whom are close to use up to date with our lives. As you may come to notice that I will be writing a lot about our youngest as we have been given some medical mysteries with this guy. God has and always been faithful to us during this time. Now I am hoping you will be patient with me, as this whole blogging is fairly new to me. As you will see there are pages, with specified topics. However new updates should show up on the main page when you check in. Please do not hesitate to leave messages, and above all prayers. In Christ The Calderons

Good morning.  I want to only place thoughts in my head and my heart that are going to leave lasting memories. This is sometimes hard to do. I’ve realized this as I walk with Christ. Many assume that oh those Jesus loving folk got it all together, they just call on His name and blessings rain down. Well yeah that’s true...but even the most righteous have to go through trials and tribulations. I mean have you heard of Job, he got his world turned upside down. Watch to find out about Job So is everything Emerson going through fair? As his mother I would say absolutely not. Do I believe there is a greater purpose in all of Mac’s suffering and his road to recovery and being rid of this leukemia? YES! So despite my flesh wanting to yell from mountain top of how unfair this all is, my spirit desires that I continue to trust in Jesus and his plan for my son. Now that doesn’t mean I disregard treatment or forsake the wisdom and knowledge of the     medical staff. I kn...
