I want you to want me. I need you to need me.

I initially started this blog because I wanted to let people know what was happening in our lives.

This blog became a safe place for me to work through my more difficult emotions.

This blog is turning into a place where people come for information about the journey they are facing.

My favorite aspect of this blog is what it is turning into.

If you have a child who has been recently diagnosed with melanoma then CONTACT ME! I want to hear from you. I want to share our experiences, both good and bad. I want to be a resource to you and to point you to others who have walked this road before you.

Even if it puts my heart in my throat and brings up scary things for me it is one of the absolute BEST things to come of Rachael's diagnosis. To think that our path might help someone else pave theirs, or at least not feel so alone, is an honor.

Thank you for sharing your stories with me and let's talk.
