Devastating News about Tia

It was a Thursday evening and we had been praying for Tia because she had been so sick for months and had some tests done. She first was tested for COVID and it came back negative. Then they did some blood work on her and we were waiting for the results.

We received a text from Tia and it said, "I just received the results and they said that I have AML-Acute Myeloid Leukemia and I am being admitted into the hospital immediately. Please pray for me"
We were swimming as a family and I happened to look at my phone and I freaked out and read the text to the family.  Cambria, Cecilee and I immediately ran into the house and started crying and hugging each other. We gathered our family and had a prayer for Tia and the Dr;s and started our fast right then!!!

Tia shared with us how it all happened. She said that the Dr. came to their home. The Dr. is a guy who coaches with Andy for Timpview Football, Dr. Josh Arnold. He came over with tears in his eyes, and Tia told him, "Do NOT sugar coat it, I already know it's bad, so give it to me". He said, "Tia it's bad, you have AML and that's the worst Leukemia. We need you to be admitted to the hospital within the hour at LDS Hospital". Tia said that earlier before they got home they were at the store and she was waiting for Andy in the car, she heard my dad's voice say, "Tia, WE GOT THIS" that was when she knew she had bad news coming.

Dr. Arnold continued with the bad news and looked at Andy and said, "You are not going to like what I am going to say, you CANNOT go into the hospital with her. You need to drop her off at the door and she has to be there by herself for the next 30 days because of the COVID 19 Restrictions". Andy was NOT HAPPY and started crying and was pissed off. He took her to the hospital and called his friend Chaz to come and meet him in the parking lot to help him give Tia a blessing before she went into the hospital. She wanted one picture with her family before she left and this was the one. Her kids did not know what had just happened they just thought mom had COVID and was going to the hospital to get medicine. But Andy and Tia were crushed and not wanting to let each other go.

She got to the hospital and Andy was able to walk her into the hospital after the nurse took his temperature. He hugged and kissed her goodbye for 30 days.

Tia is now going to fight this battle alone in a hospital room for 30 days, but she will have an army outside all around the world fighting with her. The news spread quickly that the owner and founder of the Vault dance studio who danced for a cause for over 50 families in the last 12 years and raised $650,000 for them is now fighting for her life and her cause has come FULL CIRCLE.
