Founded in honor of Milo & Malorie, we strive to spread hope through the darkness of childhood cancer. Our sweet Milo was just four months old when he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Malignant Rhabdoid Tumor (MRT), a rare and aggressive childhood cancer. Though his time with us was short, his impact was immeasurable. Milo carried a light within him—he radiated hope, peace, and a strength beyond his yea
rs. He bravely faced three full rounds of chemotherapy, smiling through the highs and the lows, teaching us what true courage looks like. As hard as he fought, the tumor eventually became resistant to treatment and the cancer spread. On September 23, 2021, Milo gained his angel wings. Since then, our hearts have been broken, but we’ve also been filled with a new purpose: to raise awareness and walk alongside other families facing childhood cancer, just as we did. Not long after Milo passed, we found out we were expecting our fourth child. While she was still in the womb, doctors discovered a tumor in her brain. On September 20, 2022, our precious Malorie came into the world. Once again, we were facing the unimaginable. Malorie spent four beautiful weeks with us. In that short time, she reminded us to slow down, to savor every heartbeat, every breath, every moment. She showed us the power of living with intention and grace. On October 18, 2022, she too gained her wings. Losing two of our children has changed us forever. The grief is something we carry every day but so is the love, the joy, and the lessons they left behind. Through it all, we’ve learned that even in the deepest sorrow, there is still room for hope, for light, and for healing. Our story is one of heartbreak, but also of resilience, purpose, and the unshakable belief that beauty will come from the ashes of our lives.
