Words we'd never thought we would have to write. Cody, our sweet 12-year-old boy has cancer. Leukemia. It has been a long month, filled with uncertainties, unknowns, questions, and heartbreak. We already spent 11 days at Riley, and we thought we would be doing outpatient therapy here in town. Unfortunately, we were thrown another curveball. We are beginning an intense and uncertain road of treatment. Right now, our focus is on being by his side, helping him feel safe and loved.

Cody is expected to be back at Riley, in Indy, for approximately five to six months for intense chemotherapy. This means extended time away from his younger brother, Jase. We want Jase to have a parent as much as possible, but we will be leaning on our family and friends who are generously helping us make sure he is cared for and surrounded by love and normalcy. I'm thankful for the community we have built. I know we have an army behind us.

There will be long, grueling hospital days and long drives back and forth as Nick and I tag-team being at Cody's bedside. We are taking things one hour at a time, one day at a time, and we know we cannot do this alone.

Our immediate needs are prayers. Lots of them.

Pray for Cody's strength and healing. For wisdom for his medical team. Peace and courage for our family.

Your messages, love, and encouragement lift us daily.

Thank you for loving Cody and walking this road with us. We feel your strength behind us every day."

On behalf of Angie, Nick, Cody, and Jase, and our entire extended family, thank you.
