Its one of the things are you driving me to do in this life. I sat and watched it. Liam happily snapped my pics and laughed at my goofy posing/fake running. She emailed me back to tell me that some of her colleagues were there, and she was sorry she could not attend. I dont remember that, but apparently I wrote it so it must be true. This led to me bawling on the phone. Even if you dont mean it or dont feel like it. All I know is we have 3 bedrooms in our house and yours will not be turned into a nursery. As soon as my name was called, I got up and asked if it was o.k. I'm on my way home, and then I'm getting on a flight. Its a baby girl. I watched his eyes light up in a way that his often do, when he is truly happy. Its late now. I am truly thankful for all of you. Oh, that would just be because Ive been crying all day. Why so much today? I had my iTunes on. Ronan. Thanks for learning this lesson and letting it make you a better person. I, of course went to, Oh fuck. I love you. Pediatic Cancer is about to get FUCKED! I knew I wanted to go there during this trip but I imagined going all alone and crying into my favorite soup. I miss you. You dont have anything to prove to me, o.k. What is your daughters name? She just looked at me and said, Ireland. I smiled and said, Its beautiful. That has been our girl name, for about 10 years. I am trying my best. I wont tell you everything they did to him, because I feel like I have to protect you. Follow up plans were made. We worked SO hard for those signatures and I know all of our supporters did, too. Ronan really wanted a girl. Our seal needed a little make-over and update. There were sooooo many happy people, everywhere. Oh, and I saw Dr. Eshun again today. I had a flashback to the days of when I used to ohhhh and awwww over baby girl clothes. They are so not cool with it. I put down the blanket that you died on and on top of that I set out all of your favorite things. I imagined it. Today, while I sat in the room full of absolute brilliance everywhere, I noticed there were 2 things missing. You being sick, unable to do things, just does not go hand in hand. the chucking continues. I hope you are safe. All fueled by everything Ronan. She lost her daughter to cancer. It felt like it today. Things like this dont even happen in the fucking movies so how can they possibly happen, in real life? This was not something I was going to tell him over the phone. A lot of you little blog readers have asked why I am calling this baby Poppy for now. I know he misses you but for some reason, it hit me really hard today. Now, since this vampire baby seems to be sucking the life out of me, I can hardly get my head up off of my pillow in the mornings to take your brothers to school. I cannot take the things down from your room, only to fill them with something new. As frustrated and sad as I am, this just motivates me more to continue this fight. The stars magically aligned for the worst reasons possible so your Fairy RoMo has been in AZ for a little over a week now. Guess what? I know you know how much we all need her. Having a baby is emotional under normal circumstances. Neuroblastoma was only touched on a few times but I found that when it was being talked about in charts, graphs, statistics. Its been a few days since Ive really cried and I guess Ive been holding a lot in by distracting myself and being so busy. Ronan. I left the restaurant with Liam. That somehow by doing everything I am doing, this pain will someday become less and maybe someday, I wont miss you so much that it hurts this badly, all of the time. I just want you back. Then I usually come back home, do a few things, but fall back into a coma like sleep for a few hours. THANK YOU. That you had to be robbed of our beautiful time together. Because you know the world I live in now, and you know I am scared shes going to die if you let me go to my due date. He called me a control freak and told me to settle down and to start listening to my body instead of fighting everything. I need to find a hobby during my witching hours. Liam chirped up that there was a 10% chance that is was not a girl. Not even his witty remark made me giggle. I am so tired of this life without you. I think the name is darling and it truly makes me smile. She told me that she knows that this is a gift from you. Her secret is beyond this world and she is the only one that can posses it. Nobody wants to take care of you because youve been so mean. Who Is 'Ronan'? The Truth About The Boy Who Inspired Taylor - TheThings But then I see your Urn staring back at me and I am quickly reminded that it is and there is nothing I can do about it, to bring you back. Start over. I had just lost you. Her baby, was 21 when she was diagnosed. I guess if it doesnt touch your life personally, it is easier just to look the other way and go about your business. Stress. On Friday, 'Ronan (Taylor's Version)' was widely released for the first time as the album's 21st track For many of Swift's younger or more casual fans, this may be their first time hearing the song. I miss you. I forget to write about 23 months without you. Now, going back to try to read that book is like a sick joke. I find myself obsessing about your safety, your happiness, your sadness and who is taking care of you when it should beclearly be me. We have been dealing with some *cough cough* technical difficulties. I cannot get rid of your bed and the Master Yoda that hangs above it. Im in route back to Phoenix on your 21 months since you left this earth. I can do a city, all alone, and badass, any other month, but not this month. I swear I stare at it all day long. I had Dr. JoRo over to our house today.

Certainly not this nowhere of crying myself to sleep because I am so sad I got to do none of those things with you today. I am really glad I did not die by the death of too many Cadbury Cream Eggs and The Kardashians. Period. Your Mr. Sparkly Eyes, and Poppys Godfather, said to me a while ago, You know its going to be a circus. I just told him in no way shape or form did I want that. Whats going on? He said some more things to me that I wont repeat, but left me saying, How do you know that? Hey, can you meet me in New York next week to meet with some publishing houses? I just smiled at Dr. JoRo. maya thompson - Page 2 - ROCKSTAR RONAN My mind is always wandering to where you would be sitting, what you would be eating, how beautiful your little face would have looked lit up by the flickering of the candlelight. I wont ever love the month of May again. I told her the awful dream I had about you and how my memory of you was completely gone. Thanks, J- for the break, amazing lunch and your dazzling smile. The most important thing of course that has been consuming me. Homemade whipped cream. I left there, feeling like my heart was going to explode from the pain of missing you. Once in a formal setting and once again, outside of her office. Thank you, sweet strangers. I went to our meeting, did my best to formulate my thoughts with this heavy fog that was hanging over my head (tiredness or so I thought), came home 4 hours later (meeting very productive) crawled into bed and by that time, every inch of my body was aching. P.S. I Dont Know What To Expect When ImExpecting. I often give her crap about this. Consider it done. he said. Remember how I said that nothing will ever be the same again? Finally, late last night, I started to feel better. I read your blog every day and as a father your strength and love is simply amazing!! You would be so proud of the way they are killing it on the court. Woody called me from the plane and told me what had happened. the voice of reason and also the voice of you are clearly insane: People get cancer everywhere, living here would not have changed Ronan getting cancer.. I know we can change this. She also told me she hoped I was o.k. Ive spent about the past year, avoiding our house during the day, because I hate it so much without you here. Thankful for the opportunity to continue talking about Ronan, Taylor, childhood cancer, and the horrifically hard world of bereavedparents. A little sorry were really not sorry light bulb changing is not going to stop me from trying every year, to get this to finally happen. And the people that work in this building, could not be lovelier! Its all so unfair. No need for bullshit or pretending. He deserved to be mine, for much longer than almost 4 years. I still feel like I have post traumatic stress syndrome over the things we went through. I dont feel brave. I may have had a mini freak out last night in our hotel room. When I remembered this meeting was taking place, I of course told your Fairy RoMo about it and she was more than happy to go with me. I will forever go on searching for you in this messed up world full of things that dont make sense. This one has been in the works for a while but it is nothing I have been pursuing seriously. It destroys me everyday that we now have to physically be apart and I cant take care of you, look after you, or keep you safe. Your daddy never knows what hes going to get with me. He always knows best. Katie. I sent my Mr. Sparkly Eyes a text and told him how I could not get out of bed. We talk about you a lot. I love you. You know that speaks volumes in my book. Not today. We talked about some other things. Its raining like crazy here today. I had to take your brothers because the appointment was so early. I was laying in bed. I am sorry. We are truly grateful to have him on our side. Who is the jackass that made up that wise saying? That pain becomes less as time goes on. I love you to the moon and back, baby doll. I had spent so much time working on it, losing sleep over it, and mostly obsessing over it I knew I was going to crack. I went up to the mom. With the little free time that I had in New York, I spent it with Rachel. As long as I get to see it through them. When I'm not writing to you on the blog, I feel like a bad mom to you. My nights have been spent writing accompanied by hot flashes and puking over the toilet again due to living this fucked up journey over in my head again and writing it all out to tell our little story. Im alone. Maybe Ill call it, What To Expect After Losing A Child And Having Another. I love you so much. My list came in my mind later as I named off a few things, but really just thanked him for being such a dear friend. Shes a pretty big deal in the literary world and is a writer herself. The Ronan Thompson Foundation - ROCKSTAR RONAN This is just the beginning. It is already her name, and she is not even here. I set it out for Stacy to pick up to give to Fernanda to let her work her magic. Im sorry for everything. Ronan. The thought of the ER and the reality that would come with it, kept me at home, chugging Gatorade. Only to wake up around midnight to toss and turn for the rest of the night. How I miss the simple days of chasing you around. You know what comes next though. One of my oldest friends, Laura was sweet enough to stay back with me so I didnt have to walk alone. It was the day after I had her. Lay down again. Sweet dreams. She has given me a lot to think about. I cannot keep up with everything that is going on and life seems to running at an outrageous speed. The only ones I feel comfortable taking. You are so right. Fuck. Her pump, full, lips look just like yours. I am doing this to protect myself because I already know I am going to need the time. I have had a blast and it is a healthy, good distraction. I then went on Google to do some research on if cats and raccoons are friends. THANK YOU. Just when I have been struggling on a little side project the past few days. I wanted to say I dont know how to stop. I was in a world that I normally dont live in anymore. Throw up. This was my idea as I knew we were going to need a way to get a laugh and some smiles on this trip. How much you wanted a baby sister. If it would have shown up as something bigger and abnormal, they would have seen it and told me. This is the girl, who is fighting with every single thing that I have, because I dont have a choice, unless I want to curl up and die, while letting cancer take EVERYTHING away from me. It has nothing to do with science. I am going to need some time with her. I beg over and over in my head. I will never understand this. Dear lovely little blog readers. I love you. Talk about another huge sign! I dont remember the last time Ive written to you and I dont like that. Last night, when I was roaming around our house, I looked outside. Hello, who the fuck does this life/grief/pregnancy/death fuckwad, think they are dealing with? Thank you to all of my rad hometown babes who worked so hard to get this all done. 34 and being pregnant can suck it. I have a ton more to write about, but I have to get ready for this little Skype interview set up that I am doing. Quinn was eating a piece of steak beside me. Im doing this, for them. She said alright and she would be there with me, to hold my hand. Please keep your Poppy sister safe. I would give anything not to be waking up because I dont have you here to cuddle up to. A productive trip. Thank you for never forgetting my little guy who continues to inspire you daily. He deserved better. I finished the lake and my knee actually felt o.k. I feel like that, all the time. His keys, our son, on our dresser. Liz. I hope you are safe. It is the pieces of pretend that give me a break from our reality. OMG. Ill bet you are the WORST sick patient ever. I took her to your favorite pizza spot, Delizas, which is right by the Ronald McDonald House. Poppy is developing such a little personality and at 7 months, is already trying to walk. If that wasnt enough to make me cry, the next thing was. It all started with the meeting of a lady who is such a badass in the cancer world, that Darth Vader would be scared of her. I am up due to feeling sick to my stomach from this Poppy that grows in my belly. I love you. Back when you were healthy and here. Not even a trip to the grocery store, the car wash, the bank, etc Even the littlest things are different. Your birthday which also happensto bethe day youwere cremated. Sweet dreams, little one. Starr was a mainstay for numerous wrestling territories throughout the 1970s and 80s, capturing almost three dozen championships throughout his career [4] including two reigns as NWA World Junior . This is such a pattern, him in my dreams, always when I am dreaming about you in whatever way that I am. I cannot process this. This is such a pattern, him in my dreams, always when I am dreaming about you in whatever way that I am. You know you have my utmost respect, always. Thanks for not listening, or caring in my opinion. You deserved better, Ronan and I will forever be so sorry that after everything that we tried and did for you that it death was still the final outcome. I was out cold. Grief. Your brothers. The ultra sound tech could not get over her long, long legs. Danielle. Tell me your dream for all of this. So I blabbed all about our Neuroblastoma Research and Care Center. We shall see, right Ro baby. with you being somewhere else. It was a boy. This totally brings tears to my eyes because I know he did this for you, and how proud you are of him. I remember last year, I couldnt even pack my suitcase. I saw a cat in our driveway and right behind that, a big raccoon. You werent naughty. Not a lot has been going on so I dont have a ton to write about. I miss you. Rach. Its amazing the way she seemsto beworking her little magic on all of us. From somebody named Tree. I love you, my little seal. What is wrong with me? I say, Mayor Gregory Stanton for PRESIDENT. February 22, 2011 - ROCKSTAR RONAN We sat outside of her office and I told her some things that I dont share with just anyone. I have to have some things I keep to myself. We walked all over the city. Thanks for writing them. Just the usual. I know this lesson they are learning in life and about your story will shape them in a way that they will go on to do amazing things. . We WILL get to the White House to make them fight harder for our kids who are dealing with cancer. I wonder if my sleep will ever be the same again. You dont. Ive got to go now, Ro. So much has happened and so much I think the phone call went really, really, well. He tried once again to shake my hand and laughed as I grabbed him for a hug. I took Becca and Stacy there today. Not many people would want to. Same with our Fairy RoMo. Why are you laughing. I miss you. I was listening to, I cried when I ran over to the mall looking for a very specific gift which I could not find, I cried when I went over to the baby girl section and tried to look at the clothes. I had a nice thing happen to me today. I went to see my OBGYN a couple of days ago, just for my 4 week standard check-up. I told your daddy if I had a month, uninterrupted, I could finish it, easily. The Kardashians?! Today, was a really happy day full of never-ending tears. if everybody came back in the room with me. Even a 45 minute car ride. I guess I wrote a lot about having another baby when you were still here. Eager and passion are both things I feel from her. I had my hand on my keyboard to skip it, but I told myself that today, I would listen to it. I thought I was fine tonight after I left and I dont know what happened. I was on a mission to grab some things for our very empty refrigerator. Of course I listened. Carrying your little red sand bucket. Depth. I let you think you were being naughty, just to make you giggle and to let you feel like you were breaking the rules. You have no idea how glad I am you didnt listen to me on that one. They turned out beautifully. with that. Im afraid this is the best it is going to get. Im tired tonight, Ronan. Ronan. Its because when I first found out I was pregnant, it was the size of a poppy seed. I stood that way for a minute, while the tears fell down my face. This is the part where all you lovelies chime in on how brave I am. Just throw a few raccoons my way. Plain and simple. I wonder if this will ever get easier. I hope you are safe. We met up with some friends. I just told him I had a lot going on in my head, like always. We went out to dinner tonight to one of our favorite restaurants, Tarbells. That is about the best I can do. Especially not in this day and age when kids die from cancer, due to lack of funding alone.
