I want to live in a world where a 10-year-old little girl does not have to use her birthday wish while blowing out her candles to wish for no more cancer and chemo treatment! At ten years old, kids should be wishing for summer to last forever, homework to be outlawed, and ice cream to be free. Cancer and chemo should not even be in their vocabulary or thoughts. Mila made her wish, but cancer…

You prayed for her and offered your support as she underwent limb salvage surgery, chemo, and yet another limb salvage surgery when the cancer returned. Currently, she has clean scans allowing her to receive promising treatment to change her otherwise poor prognosis. As you can imagine, her parents, friends, and everyone who knows her are willing…
On this Mother’s Day, I want to acknowledge someone who is the strongest and best person I have ever known. I am definitely one of the lucky ones who has been blessed to have the kind of love, acceptance, and support that a mother should give her child. As all of you know, I have learning disabilities and have had to deal with my fair share of discrimination and rejection over the years. Mom has…
Don’t waste time trying to change for anyone who doesn’t accept you because they are never going to change their minds. Life is way too short to worry about people like this. Leave them alone in their insecurities, and keep living your best life. Please visit me on Polywork at: https://www.polywork.com/atemple Also, please visit my website at: https://artemple.tumblr.com/
