For Katie.

Dear Mom,

I know most of my blogs are about you, or at least, I talk to you. But this entry is going to be a little different. I want to talk about someone else who is special to me. 

This, is Katie. 

Katie is my sorority sister. She is kind-hearted, beautiful, and is true. To herself, AGD, and with all of her friends. 

She has this spirit about her that lights up the room, and she doesn't even have to try. She is one of the reasons I stuck with sorority life. 

All in all, she is a great friend, and an amazing human being. 

So when I checked facebook from my phone at the dinner table on June 10th, my stomach sank to the floor. You see Mom, Katie was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. I cried and cried... I didn't want to believe it was true.

With time I have seen that Katie has been fighting, and she is even stronger than I thought. What an amazing woman. To have to go through this, yet she is still cheery whenever I talk to her. Every day I text her a random fact or quote, just to help to keep in touch with her, and to try and keep a smile on her face. I love hearing back from her... It keeps a smile on my face too. :) 

If you could do anything in your power to watch over her and protect her Momma, I would love that. I can share you as my guardian angel for her. 

For anyone else reading this, please pray for a healthy recovery for Katie. You can visit her CaringBridge site to donate a tribute to her!

And Katie, I love you with all my heart. This blog entry does not do you justice for how much you mean to me. 

Thank you Katie, for making a difference in my life, and for being another great inspiration for me. I can't imagine what you're going through, but I do know that you are strong. And that you will beat that stupid cancer! 

So now Mom, I am doing my PBSC donation for you, and for Katie. <3

I love you.

               Love your baby doll,

Mrs. Tess's Mom.

Dear Mom,


Awhile ago, Kayla looked through an old TP yearbook, and found this:

It makes me smile to see your handwriting. Especially since what you are writing is a (normal) smartass comment. 

I remember being sad that when you taught math for my class, you hardly ever taught my group. I'm sure that was done on purpose; but I still thought it would be cool if you were my teacher. 

All the kids loved you, which made me happy. Sorry, writer's block, I'm tired and can't form complete thoughts. 

I'm trying to remember if it was Marshall who gave you your nickname? All I know is that you went along with it and loved helping out the class. 

I guess I am too tired to think straight. Wish I had more to say but I guess this is all for now. 

Love you.

               Love your baby doll,

               Tessy Loo Loo

It's all in your head.

Dear Mom,


Attempting to do this from my phone... we'll see how this works out haha.
This past week I have been struggling, thinking. About school, the transplant coming up, my friends, you. I've overloaded myself with so much stress, that I'm letting my summer slip away from me. I'm trying to work on that...


I'm trying to open up more
I'm trying to be more positive
I'm trying to just let thing work their course
I really do think too much. Sometimes I get upset over the littlest things... a friend doesn't text back, people can't make plans, stupid things.
But do they really matter?
I guess what I'm trying to say that I'm growing up, and its hard. Especially without you.
But I guess the only thing I can do is enjoy the rest of my summer. I still have 5 more shows of Big River, in 12 days I am donating PBSC, Relay for Life is soon... I have so many things to look forward to, and I need to not freak out over stupid stresses.
I still haven't posted many updates on the donation... basically in one week a home hospital nurse will start the drug injections for me, and the adventure will really begin. All I have left now, is waiting.
Missing you.

                                                                               Love Your Baby Doll,

Tessy Loo Loo         . 

"Your Mother and Mine."

Dear Mom, 


I can't seem to get myself to sleep, because I have this song stuck in my head. This happened while trying to google "disney mom quotes" and this was the only thing that came up. 

She's the angel voice that bids you goodnight
Kisses your cheek, whispers, "Sleep tight."


What makes mothers all that they are?
Might as well ask, "What makes a star?"
Ask your heart to tell you her worth
Your heart will say ,"Heaven on earth."




I never really listened to this song before. Now I will. 
I miss you a lot mommy. Sorry I haven't updated this blog much. I've been meaning to do an update with my bone marrow stuff, but I keep forgetting. I will, soon. 




                 Love your babydoll, 
                 Tessy Loo Loo
