I can’t fathom what Brittney’s momma heart is feeling. Pray that God has a miracle in store for this precious young man 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
He pushed his friend Will Roberts onto an elevator yesterday.
While Will fights bone cancer and tumors behind his eyes, his buddy Cooper is in Santa Monica, CA with him.
Late last night, Brittney Roberts sent along the latest from California.
Brittney and Jason Roberts are with their son and his friend, as several things have been tugging at them from all sides:
Writes Brittney:
“Today (Wednesday) has been one of those days.
“I miss my mama. I miss Charlie. I miss home.
“We are still living in the land of unknowns.
No real answers yet on Will’s eyes. Every day seems to be appointments, scans, treatments, traffic, and trying to keep up with whatever comes next and also the fear of the cancer spreading.
“I don’t stalk numbers anymore. I can’t. It’s mentally draining and trying to predict what’s going on inside of his body based on numbers telling you it’s spreading like wildfire but to look at him just living life to the fullest breaks you a little more each day.
“This afternoon we took a break at Dave & Buster’s.
I sat at a table and watched Will from a distance.
Just a kid wanting to be a normal 15-year-old.
Wearing a patch over one eye. Walking on a prosthetic.
Carrying more than most adults will ever have to carry.
“And yet there he was… smiling, playing games, laughing, and soaking up every bit of life he can.
“Meanwhile, I’m the mama sitting at a table trying to quietly wipe away tears before he notices because the truth is, watching him fight this hard is both inspiring and heartbreaking at the same time.
“Will keeps showing up every day and taking whatever life throws at him like a champ.
He keeps finding reasons to smile, laugh, and keep moving forward.
“So if I’m being honest, he’s carrying me more than I’m carrying him today.
“Some days faith feels strong.
Some days it’s exhausting like today.
“ Tomorrow (Thursday) we’ll get up, walk back into another appointment, and keep marching forward because that’s what Will does and if he’s getting up doing it then I can’t have a reason to stop…..
“I am so mentally exhausted and drained.
Lord, please give us answers for his eye.
“Tonight I just need my mama out here with me.
“Jason knows so he has started working on getting her and Charlie out here with us next week.”
Thanks to Brittney for sharing her heart.
