Big News — We’re Launching!

The Logan Foundation is officially taking off in 7 days. While our launch event is a small, private gathering, we’d love for you to be part of this moment by supporting the mission however you can.

This foundation was built to honor Logan, his joy, his spirit, and the way he lit up every room. It’s our promise to protect the childhoods of kids in the fight, and to help families feel less alone.

💛 Join us in fueling that promise:

As Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month ends, we are reminded that the impact of childhood cancer does not end with diagnosis or even with the end of treatment.

For families like ours who have felt the deep loss, for those living in the thick of it, and for those yet to face the unimaginable, the effects are lifelong.

Raising awareness is not just about ribbons and campaigns- it is about shining a light on the importance of research, support, and compassion. It is about recognizing that every child, even during treatments and struggles, is STILL A KID who deserves joy, play and hope.

This month, we went GOLD for him.
We said his name. We honored Logan by doing what he did best:

Finding light even in the fight.

a Kid. Always.

It’s September – Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
For families like ours, every month is.

We carry the memories every day, the hospital drive, the infusion room, medical terms stuck in our brain that we wish we never knew, the strength it took just to smile as we sat next to our warrior.
And the moments of joy that still found their way in.

Logan lived and loved with a kind of courage that lit up every room. He laughed. He played. He entered every appointment with a smile never letting the hardest days take his childhood away from him.

This month, we GO GOLD for him.
We say his name. We share his name. We protect the joy cancer tries to steal.
And we fight for every kid still in treatment because they are Still a Kid.

This month, we remember Logan by doing what he did best:

Finding light even in the fight.

To the Cancer Kid Dads

To the Dads who didn’t get to coach little league
because they were busy learning how to flush lines, crush chemo pills, and read lab reports.

To the ones who held their child still during painful procedures,
but felt their own heart race every time the doctor entered the room.

To the fathers who memorized MRI dates,
who dreaded the sound of their phone when results were due,
and stayed up at night reading about clinical trials
because hope had to live somewhere.

To the dads who still went to work
not because they wanted to,
but because you had to
and the world outside the hospital kept moving,
even when theirs stopped.

To the fathers who fasted with their child before sedation,
who skipped meals but never skipped bedtime
even if bedtime was in a reclining chair beside a hospital bed.

To the ones who smiled while their child’s hair fell out,
promising it would grow back,
even when they knew it might not.

To the dads who told their child they were strong,
that they were proud
who said “it’s going to be okay”
even when it wasn’t.

To the ones who never said goodbye
because they refused to speak something so final
out loud.

To the fathers who gave up everything except their child
who let careers, plans, egos, and sleep fall away,
just to stay present in the pain.

To the dads who never made their child feel sick, only loved.
Who broke down in parking garages,
but stayed composed by the bedside.
Who became medical experts overnight,
but still made room for garbage trucks, LEGO’s and superhero movies.

To the ones who carry grief like a second skin.
Who still say “I’m a dad,”
even if their child is no longer here to say it back.

You are seen.
You are honored.
You are part of a brotherhood no one ever asked to join
but one defined by a love deeper than words.

Happy Father’s Day
to the Dads still fighting beside their child and to those fighting to live without them.

JP
Logan’s Dad. Always.

Grief does not follow a linear pattern. There is no set path to follow. Grief can occur sporadically, with some days feeling more intense than others and some days feeling more persistent.

I am not an artist; I am not a writer. I am a parent dealing with the grief of losing a child and this is how it pours out.

***********************************************************************

There is a wreath that I take out to decorate every Valentine's Day that is a heart made up of several tiny hearts. It's red, a GLITTERY RED that reflects the sun's rays.

Last year, the kids frequently disassembled the small hearts to keep and play with them. They placed them in different locations and filled our pockets with them. These hearts were often found later in jackets, pants, and laundry.

True to custom, my daughter pulled some off and played with them. I found many on the floor as I went on with my day. I left them there for days without picking them up until finally I found myself vacuuming them up.

Parents of children fighting pediatric cancer become members of a “club” they didn’t ask for or want to join. In this club, we find community through our shared struggles and the overwhelming loneliness of these everyday battles. We share in the loneliness that comes with missing milestones like back to school, playdates, vacations, birthdays, holidays. But this membership is also one of individual and singular loneliness specific to each parent. Every family, every child, every experience is unique.

This loneliness is the rollercoaster of heightened fear, anxiety, hope, joy, sadness, desperation that leads to uncertainty with every life-changing decision we must make for our child. The weight of not knowing whether our decision for a medication, procedure or trial is “finally” going to work or will it have an adverse reaction. This loneliness is also anger, very real anger. Anger, that this wasn’t the plan for our lives or the plan for our child. And anger, that the world and everyone around us, selfishly continue to move forward, while your child’s world is on pause. Anger and fear, not knowing if this pause is temporary or definite.

In these moments of loneliness, friends and family, may unintentionally be overwhelming with their well-meaning ways of providing or showing support, or sharing of their own feelings. While we are appreciative and understanding, sometimes it adds to the heavy load parents already carry.

The children's book "The Rabbit Listened" serves as a reminder of the importance of empathy and the compassionate act of listening. Rather than trying to fix the situation, simply being present and listening can be exactly what is needed. As families navigate this difficult journey, they ask their loved ones to "Be the Rabbit" and offer support through understanding and quiet presence.
