Raising Awareness One Post At a Time

My name's Geneva I have Spastic Diplegia Cerebral Palsy. Currently there is no cure, but maybe someday there will be, so until then I'm raising awareness!  I am also a childhood cancer advocate.

Help Santos Cruz The Bacon Man Sizzle Out Cancer! organized by Elethyia Cruz

Meet Santos Cruz, my wonderful, caring, funny and loving husband of … Elethyia Cruz needs your support for Help Santos Cruz The Bacon Man Sizzle Out Cancer!

I know I haven’t posted anything in a very long time, but I need my followers help. My very dear friend finished radiation for his stage 3 lung cancer six days ago, and he desperately needs chemo, but they won’t do it with insurance or some kind of funds. He and his wife mean so much to me.  If you are able to donate anything we would be very grateful, and if you can’t please share, because maybe someone out there can. COVID 19 has stopped all of our other fundraising plans right now.  You can read more of his story, by clicking the link.

I  know I should have posted this yesterday (the 18th), but I still wanted to make a post yesterday should have been Talia's 18th birthday. Talia I love you so so so much. All the time I wonder what you would have been like today, and what you would have accomplished. What celebrities make up would you be doing? I am so sorry all of that was taken from you!

PS this photo was taken at Talia 13th birthday party (her last one) I love it, because you can see how happy she is!

At this very moment four years ago (11:22 AM) you took your last breath. Four years seems impossible yet it feels like an eternity. My heart hurts for you everyday! When will the government wake up and see that 3.8 percent of funding is NOT ENOUGH! These children deserve so much more!

Kids Deserve More Birthdays!!

Childhood Cancer Awareness Month Day 5! A few days ago my baby boy Oreo turned  5. How does this tie in with Childhood Cancer Awareness you ask? Because when you a child is diagnosed with cancer, even if they survive their life span is more often than  not shortened, not necessarily because of the cancer itself, but the very harsh, and outdated treatment options. This is why more funding is a must!

I am several days behind on my Childhood Cancer Awareness Month post, but I am going to try to get caught back up. The is for day 4. This little boy's name is Elijah. His family post daily vlogs on YouTube, and I have been a subscribe for a little more than two weeks. He has been fighting Stage 4 High Risk Narrowblastoma, and well to be frank he doesn't have very much time left. He is only 9 years old, and been fight since he was just 3. Did you know that, because he has been fighting for 6 years the NIH considers him a survivor, even though he will more than likely pass in the few weeks/month? How wrong is this?! It needs to end NOW! Living to be 9 years old IS NOT surviving cancer, people wake up! Last night he had a major seizure. he is doing okay now, but truly needs a miracle that only God can give.

Childhood Cancer Awareness Month Day 2! I know this is a little late, but that's not what is important. This is 16-year-old Miranda Mead. She is a childhood cancer warrior working with #thetruth365. This video is on their YouTube channel, please go check it out. I really believe it is the most powerful I have seen yet. Breast cancer awareness is very important don't get me wrong, but many of these young girls never grew up to have the 'TaTas' we raise so much awareness for.

September is #ChildhoodCancerAwarenessMonth, so all this month I'm going to try to post something every day of this month.  I will be changing my profile picture to this GOLD ribbon for this month, I ask all of you to please do the same!  For my first post I want to share this fact with you.   Childhood Cancer gets less than 4% (3.8) of the National (America) Cancer budget!  This is insane, because 46 children are diagnosed everyday!  That's the size of two Elementary school classrooms! And 7 die everyday!  Yet the Government insist it is rare!  I don't like to get political, but #WakeUpWashington and see what is happening our children!

Day 50 of 365! This is from 12 year old Kylie’s memorial. The words her Daddy shares really breaks my heart, but gives me hope at the same time!

Day 49 365!! Please keep Julian in your prayers, as he is taking a turn for the worse. He was doing well for a while, and they thought he may be able to make it to Disney, but now there is no way. So please keep him and his family in your prayers during this difficult time.

Day 48 of 365!  Well the blue black or white and gold dress went viral, let's see if this one will.  Why is it the color of the dress seems to be more important than our children? team go gold for the kids! Be sure to read the caption on the dress.  I know I have a lot of catching up to do my post,  I have been sick so I'm getting back to it now.
