Hey y'all check out this amazing thing Katie Mettner is doing to raise money for Braden's Hope.
Braden is a STRONG little man that I pray for him and his family often.
I couldn't imagine what he and his family go through everyday.
Ok trying not to cry just read all Katie has to say below!

Anyone who has read my stories knows just how much I believe
in there being a reason for everything. I struggle with some of them, and I
certainly don't like a good number of them, but I always look for that reason.
When I learned about Braden Hofen and his mom Deliece, I found myself really
struggling with the reasons. A little boy, only 9 years old, and already
battling cancer, twice? What's fair about that, Lord? What are your reasons for
that? Then I got to know Deliece and Braden, and I saw all His reasons wrapped
in the smile of a little boy. A little boy who really doesn't care that he has
cancer, because to him cancer doesn't exist. I see his mother and father, who
know cancer exists and who know what cancer can do to their child, and they
fight. They fight hard, to raise funds for grants to research treatments for
childhood cancer, because there isn't enough being done! Braden's Hope is
changing the world of so many young cancer patients all because the Lord knew
who could shoulder this burden, and do it with dignity and with HOPE. When I
think about this week I think about being thankful, and I am thankful for The
Hofens! I have never met these brave warriors in person, but when I look at my
own children I think of them every single time. Every time I look at my
children I know if they ever were diagnosed with cancer, the path little Braden
has had to walk, has laid the groundwork for potential treatments that could
help my child, or yours, or your grandchildren or nieces or nephews. So, to
express my thanks for all they have done for the little warriors, the week of
November 25th through 31st, the proceeds from the purchase of any of my books
will benefit Braden's Hope For Childhood Cancer. Thank you for supporting
Braden’s Hope and the groundbreaking work they have embarked on, all because
they have HOPE. Thursday, when I sit down with my own family, I will say a
prayer of thanks and then say “Take that cANCER! You didn't get this Thanksgiving,
the Hofen's did!”
God bless the warriors.
