FOR HER DAD…

It’s been a while since my last post and there is so much to share about what has been going on, but at this moment I’d like to share something special with you all and the other stuff can wait. During the time that James was going through his treatment, Arianna wanted to do something special for him. At the time she had some great ideas, but just couldn’t decide on the perfect one. One of the main things she considered doing was shaving her hair off. She struggled with this internally because it was her senior year in high school and it was a big moment for her in her life. Because of that reason and not following through with it, It’s been weighing heavy on her. To all of our surprise, yesterday she made a bold decision to go ahead and follow through with it. When she first told me that she wanted to go through with this, we both cried as I laid my head on her lap. It was a such a beautiful and special moment, and I couldn’t help but to feel warm inside. Especially considering she doesn’t express her feelings and this was maybe the second time that I’ve ever seen her breakdown since his passing.

In part with shaving her head, she also decided to donate it to an organization that helps make wigs for cancer patients. It was extremely important to her to do this in memory of her Father. For those that know her know that just like James, her hair is her pride and joy so this was a major move on her part. I’m so truly proud of her selfless act and her wanting to contribute and bring awareness to this disease that so many battle each day.

Bravo to you my sweet girl! Let’s continue to keep his memory alive.
