Beautiful Son
Today is one of those milestones that, I think, is significant in a cancer patient’s life. The day you realize that your hair is going to go away. Jake has beautiful hair. Other than his eyes, it’s one of my most favorite and precious physical features on him. He has this blond, wind-blown, surfer hair. It’s one of the reason’s he’s called “Handsome”. Because he’s so stinkin’ cute! Today he is shedding. It’s everywhere. They keep telling me, “it’s a good sign, it means the chemotherapy is working”. But in my mind, the bald head is that big physical sign that puts him in the “cancer” category. From the outside there will be no question that our Jake is sick. Up until now, he still

Just remember the hair doesn’t make the person. It will make his beautiful eyes pop! Shaving it off will remind you every time you look at him there is something working inside him to make him stronger. Hugs!

I remember when my mom lost her hair (the 1st time). It was so very hard on her. But I also remember what she said, “women find their identity in their appearance. Their hair is so very important in that equation. Now it’s time to place my identity in someone else”. It so true! We place our identity in our appearance. So while Jake may be losing his hair for the time being, his identity is found in someone else. Praying for you in this season and knowing that your precious little man will be just as precious without that blond hair. And when it begins to grow back, it will be even thicker, better, and cuter than before!!!! Hugs mama <3

It’s ok to be sad. It’s hard watching your baby suffer. This might be the most difficult season of your life. But just as the trees lose their leaves this time of year we know that this is all part of a bigger plan. God sees all and knows all and we can be sad and still trust in the Lord.

He was bald at his baptism when the fire of the Christ was burned into his heart…trust that His Father in Heaven sees him JUST as he was that very day…I know that may not make the Mommy in you feel better…but I hope it will give you the assurance of how God sees Jacob. You are all loved…I have never met Jacob…but his name crosses my lips, my heart and my mind every day…I whisper prayers for his wellness…and for your whole family. Love, Ginna
