Kenna Goodman (28) has been recently diagnosed with a grade 4 cancerous brain tumor called Medulloblastoma.

Kenna had surgery to remove the tumor and is now undergoing radiation and chemo therapy in hopes to destroy any residual cancer cells in her brain and spinal column.

She has three adorable children ages 6, 4, and 1 and is terrified they will grow up without their mommy.

Loose...

I've always had a problem remembering how to spell the difference between loose and lose
And so to remember the extra o in loose I always rhyme it with goose.
But talking about LOOSE
Ms. Macey Mae had an adventure...
Yesterday baby girl was playing like usual, and climbing over and on top of everything like her brother
Well Macey was trying to climb on to the filing cabinet next to the desk so she could be on the desk like Parker. She had her cute little bunny footy pajamas on and started the trek to climb, she decided to use daddy's motorcycle helmet to climb on top of.
The mix between the footy pajamas and the slippery helmet ended in her hitting her mouth
OUCH!!!
Blood started coming out of her mouth so I was checking for a cut, nothing
She kept crying and more blood was coming
So I did a more thorough check to find that her
bottom teeth had been hit and were hanging out.
I could see the root of the tooth and the pocket where it had popped out.

Parker was such a big helper, he put his shoes on and buckled himself right up in the car and then the whole way to the dentist he sang songs to Macey to help calm her down.

Once we got to the dentist office they were all ready for us and took her right back.
She was a tough cookie, she sat super still while they took x-rays of her mouth 
And the dentist came in and just pushed the roots of her teeth back into the pockets of her gums and bonded the 3 teeth together, the whole time Macey didn't even fidget or cry.
The dentist said in all his years he has never had someone not cry while he was pushing teeth back in.
So now the waiting game is to see if the baby teeth will reattach or if they will turn gray and die.
Poor thing though, she can't eat much, as of now she is on a liquid diet till her teeth are more stable and not as tender.
