The Journey; My Blog: May 2010
http://tashaengel.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
The Journey; My Blog. Thursday, May 27, 2010. A Whole New World. When I was growing up - I loved the movie The Little Mermaid. The story of a girl who overcomes everything. It was filled with fun music that Tricia and I were known to belt out on many occasions. There was something about it that was hopeful, even though it was all new. And that is how I am trying to look at our new life. What do you think daddy is doing up there right now? Can you please get me a new daddy cause mine died? I struggle to c...

The Journey; My Blog. Saturday, January 23, 2010. Last night Ryan and I had planned to put Talyn to bed and then watch a comedy together. But when we turned on the TV, we couldn't take our eyes off of the "Hope for Haiti Now" US broadcast. It was a breathtaking collection of people that had dropped whatever high paying job they had on the go, to come and use their talents to raise funds. Friday, January 22, 2010. Hard questions and some new "stability". First things first, Ryan is mostly stable still....

The Journey; My Blog. Saturday, October 30, 2010. Stuck in the "in-between". That was a huge AHA moment as Oprah would say. I am not ready to say goodbye to the life Ryan and I had planned, the dreams we shared and the things we wanted to do together, so how could I possibly start thinking about what was next? This has actually made me feel comfortable with the in-between that I am in and given me some peace to just "be". Tuesday, October 12, 2010. And then he died". How could I have not figured that out?

The Journey; My Blog. Monday, August 31, 2009. Filling the "magical" reserve. I haven't been online for a while. Every post that I do, I feel a need to be positive and help someone, but I haven't felt much like that lately. So now I've decided that being honest about how I'm feeling might help someone too. Medically, we've both been doing well. Can you believe it will be September tomorrow? So the question then is how do we all build up that reserve to ensure we have enough to get us through? Think back ...

The Journey; My Blog: June 2009
http://tashaengel.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
The Journey; My Blog. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. My first chapter of the new book. So far so good. This new book idea of Tricia's is really working out. In all of the updates from yesterday's post, I forgot to mention that I also had my last major reconstruction surgery over the past weeks. They did end up removing that area of concern they were watching and I have been waiting to find out what it was. So please celebrate life today! It is a good one. Cheers! Monday, June 22, 2009. We had our second Live, L...

The Journey; My Blog. Friday, February 19, 2010. You will be happy. On the weekends, we have been lucky enough to have him home for one or two nights too. Physically, his right arm continues to weaken, so he now has it in a sling to keep his shoulder and wrist supported. Some days he is very tired and others, surprisingly awake and alert. How can I handle that? But the most important lesson I learned from all of this is that I can. Do this alone.if I need to. Wednesday, February 10, 2010. Last night I wa...

Well, there's nothin' we can do about it,' said the neighbor.

The Journey; My Blog: December 2010
http://tashaengel.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
The Journey; My Blog. Sunday, December 26, 2010. A new year, a new blog. The word "re-create" keeps popping into my mind and so I decided to start a new blog where I will do exactly that. In a much more upbeat way, try to re-create my life. I don't know exactly what that will entail, but I am excited at the idea of it all. I plan to launch this in January, 2011 and it will be found at http:/ tashawesterman.blogspot.com/. If you're interested in coming along for the ride. Much love, Tasha and Talyn. What ...

The Journey; My Blog. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Small moments of Ryan. Every time I want to write an update on Ryan, I for a second wonder if I'm jinxing myself. If by writing something, another change will come right away. I know that's ridiculous, but I've always been a bit superstitious and this experience has made me more on edge all the time. Talyn is still up and down. Some moments are better than others and he still asks why the doctors can't just cut into daddy's head and get the tumour out!
