Cindy, I don't know if you remember me from High School (Sara Martin), but I just randomly came across your blog this morning and want to thank you for posting about your sweet son's life. I am deeply sorry for your loss and know that no words will ever make it better or any easier to deal with. My heart aches for you, as a mother. You are a rock and are an inspiration to those who have had or will have the privilege of reading your beautiful words. Stay strong and just know that I, a person you probably don't remember, am thinking of you. xo Sara (Martin) Oborn
January 13, 2012 our 4 yr old, Atticus, was diagnosed cancer- DIPG/PNET of the brain in the pons... a rare inoperable aggressive brain tumor. He fought a VERY courageous battle and returned to our loving Heavenly Father a short 4 1/2 months later on May 27, 2012. .............................................................. To read about Atticus' journey from the beginning, scroll down to the blog archive, then click on January 2012. The first entry is dated Sunday January 15th 2012.

Always in our hearts...

Our cancer fighting hero. Witty.. intense.. tender.. courageous.. too smart for his own good four year old.. We had 4 AMAZING years. Growing. Loving. Watching. Crying. Laughing. Praising. And learning. Atticus taught us so much. He has proven that great things come in small packages. He has been a true missionary to us all. We love you sweet boy and are anxiously waiting for the day we meet again; Hold you in our arms and kiss your sweet cheeks. XOXOXO

Our sweet sassy teeny tiny two year old. What she lacks in height she makes up for in attitude. She is a girly girl that can hold her own. She has two amazing big brothers and a mom and dad who adore her! She is the cutest little thing with lots of personality, growing up way too fast!

Words of Comfort...
“Suffering is universal; how we react to suffering is individual. Suffering can take us one of two ways. It can be a strengthening and purifying experience combined with faith, or it can be a destructive force in our lives if we do not have the faith in the Lord’s atoning sacrifice. The purpose of suffering, however, is to build and strengthen us.” -Robert D. Hales
