UCSD Men’s Soccer End of Season Party! 2/22/2014
Sorry! It has been a while since our last post. With getting back to somewhat of a normal routine, besides all the appointments, medications and lab work, it is easy to forget that it is important to slow down and write some things down. In the midst of State Cup Soccer, Soccer Tryouts, School, Work, […]

State Cup Soccer Weekend! 1/27/2014
What an exciting weekend of soccer at State Cup! After a disappointing 1-0 loss on Saturday against the TVSA Hawks, we weren’t sure how the boys would bounce back. The important thing was that we played some good soccer even though we couldn’t get the goals to go and had 1 bad break that we […]

Counts are Down so We are Hanging Around! 12/22/2013
On Friday, we were back down at Rady’s to have blood work done and Travis’ counts have dropped from Tuesday.

Hi Everyone, Once again, we are at a complete loss of words because they just don’t seem to be enough to express how thankful we are to be surrounded by such a great community. Now that we have completed Travis’ last round of chemotherapy, we know we still have some of this journey left to […]
