Dexter Lawrence Authentic Jersey  Cure Search - we need you!


NICKYBEAR'S 2ND BIRTHDAY WISH .... please join us ...... also please please pray for his scan on August 25 at St Jude ....


If you never had to ....

If you never had to hear the words "your child has cancer" ...
If you never had to live in hospital rooms for days that turned into weeks....
If you never had to see your child wake to a world of deficits from surgery, never the same ....
If you never had to watch your child have lines or ports hang from their tiny chests ...

If you never had to watch massive amounts of poison being pumped into your child's body ....
If you never had to hold your child while they vomit from the same thing that's suppose to help them ...
If you never had to watch your child in pain and feel so completely helpless ...

If you never had to hook up a feeding bag that pumped food into your child's body....
If you never had to hold your child while they sedate them for more tests...
If you never had to watch your child be fitted for a radiation mask...

If you never had to cry in fear of the reality that cancer has no rules...
If you never had to watch your childs hair, eyelashes and eye brows fall out  ..
If you never had to watch your childs body become fragile and small...

If you never had to watch for side effects of treatment ...
If you never had to sit in front of a doctor listing off the deficits your child will have from treatments...
If you never had to live in a watch and wait lifestyle praying cancer is gone....
If you never had to wait for results that could change EVERYTHING all over again...
If you never had to hear that your child relapsed and more medical options may be an option....

If you never had to watch your child fighting to breath because the disease has spread ....
If you never had to hear the words, no more can be done ...
If you never had to watch your childs life being ravaged by cancer ....

If you never had to make arrangements anticipating your childs death ....
If you never had to wonder if today will be your childs last..
If you never had to watch your child take their last breath while you grip them tightly...

If you never had to kiss your child's casket and say goodbye ...
If you never had to mourn the lost of a child DAILY .....
If you never had to write a journal entry about how painful life is without your child....


written by, NickyBears Momma, simply me the author of this world I was tossed into and learned of more than I have experienced through loving the ones around me and loving my son so very much.


If you never had to do any of thee above whether cancer or not, then you are so very blessed!  But for the ones that any of these apply to, I ask you to please consider taking off work, or not sleeping in --- to get up and WALK on September 24th for our celebration of LIFE for NickyBear and show support to the families that have had to tread into a completely different way of life that NO FAMILY should ever endure .... Ask yourself, if this was your child in any of the above, wouldn't you want your family and friends support WALKING with you in this fight? There is something healing to the soul when someone stands next to you during this fight .... will you stand with me? Will you hug me when I cry ... boy I cry ... If your inspired - please I ask you to forward my son's journey to anyone with a heart and compassion. www.nickybear.com

I would do it for you, are you willing to do it for me? If you can not walk, please consider a donation to fund CURES no amount is too small, give up a box of cigarettes, don't go to starbucks, do not buy us a 3 dollar card and stamp or any toys please and WASTE research funding  ..... I beg you to help us fight ..... these children all deserve CURES and no family should have to bury their child, so many of my friends this year have ..... We walk in honor of so many families, we walk with the HOPE that one day the CURES will be found and we will have made a difference .... please join us and register or donate at:

This is how we are celebrating our son's 2nd Birthday and praying to God he will have many more ..... currently there are no cures for any childhood cancers - don't be misled! American Cancer Society only gives 4 cents to every dollar for breast cancer ... these are babies that deserve at chance .... 46 children a day are diagnosed with some form of cancer and 7 die each day ...

http://www.jacobsfight.com/images/shoes.jpgMy Great Grandmother and Nickys Grandma had breast cancer - someone asked why I never walked for them, but for this I would .....there is something extremely wrong with a baby, a child having a life threatening illness. It is simply indescribable. It seems like an injustice that out weighs any adult because they simply have not had a chance. People say bald head is a badge of honor, it is not for a baby or a child that had no choice and didn't choose to be a hero and deserved a normal life ... it is simply wrong!

Am I the only one that thinks its crazy that we can land a ship on the moon and clone a human but we have no cure for ANY cancers ..... something is very wrong with our world that we spend 30 Billion for space travel and less that a few million for childhood cancer research ...

As you can see to the right - 7 pairs of empty shoes for today with the number 46 written on them ..... this MUST STOP! 7 families mourn their child taking their last breath today, while 46 families lives are forever changed in just moments, nothing for them no matter the outcome is EVER the same, the overcast of the word cancer will loom over them always .... the devastation is immeasurable. 46/7
