#TBT My Godson Wil and I at my wedding in 2006. ❤️ this kid!
Today, he's fighting the battle against leukemia.
Only two more days until we walk with him in the LLS Light the Night Walk. Please donate to our team if you can. Let's end blood cancers!!



SEPTEMBER 23, 2017
Plenty of time to come walk with us! Forest park, Cricket field we are by the face painting tent!

Kristine:  A sea of orange!
What an emotional night as we walked with Wil. We had fun- there was celebration and dancing and lots of laughs. And there were also tears and hugs and reflection. I am so thankful he was able to be there after having such a rough week.❤️
We were asked by organizers to come over to the front of the walk because we had one of the largest friends & family groups. ❤️😊
Our family members also drank a toast to Uncle Sonny, who we lost to leukemia in 2003- Milwaukee's Best, his favorite. ❤️
Thank you to our incredible Wil's Warriors team and all those who supported our cause!


Great job, Wil's Warriors! We came in #23 out of 190 friends & family teams.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Whoot, whoot! Together we raised $2885.00 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Thank you for fundraising and for walking with us! See you next year??😊
A huge thank you to everyone who donated! It really means a lot to all of us who love someone with a blood cancer.❤️

Breathing is NOT optional-Saturday

Saturday update: Wil had an allergic reaction last night and stopped breathing. The medical team and  Kristen Josephine  were amazing they bagge d him and gave him shots to open his airway. It was terrifying. He is shaken but doing ok. Very grateful for the amazing staff at the PICU.

Happy 17th birthday, Wil!

Happy Birthday,  Wil Ohler  ! I am so lucky to be your mom. You fill our lives with laughter and show us what real strength is. Yesterday they celebrated with him at the cancer center when he came in for chemo. To say that you should never take life for granted has taken on a whole new meaning. I ask for prayers for the little ones who won't be celebrating another birthday. Send their families your light and energy for strength and peace. For Wil we ask that you do something today for someone else who will never be able to pay you back, spread kindness, love, and of course laughter. # wilswarriors   # wilwins

Make A Wish soccer game

It has been awhile since I updated here. It is much easier to do from Facebook if you can follow his story there. CLICK HERE Wil has been struggling with the effects of chemotheraphy. The chemo has not been kind to his stomach, gallbladder, liver, or head. The good day was his MAKE A WISH faculty soccer game. March 15, 2018 Our family is humbled by the support of Wil and the Make A Wish foundation. Thank you from the bottom of our overflowing hearts, we love being a FLYER! -Thank you to Lori Condellire, Susan Dooling, & Beth Johnston for sharing pictures! A few members of the  StepUp  of St. Louis Teen Coalition presented a check from their budget for $100 to be used for Wil's Wish fundraising at the soccer game to day! So cool to see these kids in action. Way to go  Truman Middle School  for organizing such a fun afternoon.  # wilswarriors   # stepupstl
