Numbers trending up!

8 months since diagnosis...8 was Wil’s first Soccer number. He loved it because 8 on its side is the infinity symbol. I love random, crazy associations that mean nothing and everything.
Today Wil’s numbers came up for the first time in four weeks. I experienced a genuine moment of happiness. It sincerely shocked me. Earlier in the day I had read an article on sorrow and the author wrote “happiness is not a place we arrive, but moments we pass through.” I love random, crazy associations that mean nothing and everything.
I think this weekend I will share random moments of happiness with 8 people to pay it forward. I welcome you to do the same. I love random, crazy associations that mean nothing and everything.
P.S. Thanks Aunt Vic for taking Wil, you make a great “next.” I love you!

 Just one night of pills...it is overwhelming.

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

Coaches vs Cancer

Hard to say how proud I am of this kid. Wil received the 2017 Stephanie Phillips Survivorship Award for outstanding courage and leadership in the fight against cancer. Huge Thanks to Coaches vs Cancer STL. We support their mission of raising awareness and funding. Coach Jason Wolfard at Lindbergh nominated Wil for this award and we are grateful to him and his entire coaching staff.  Staff at Coaches vs Cancer STL doing great work.  Yup, still proud (and let's be real, glad he didn't puke) F-L-Y...E-R-S Here is Wil's speech... Coaches vs Cancer Speech 2017 - Wil Ohler Thank you for this award.Thank you to Coach Wolfard for nominating me. Thank you to the family of Coach Stephanie Phillips, I’m sure her family misses her even more so during basketball season. Cancer is not a team anyone ever wants to join. The week before I received my leukemia diagnosis I was playing a soccer tournament in Chicago. Yes, I had been feeling bad for a very lo...
