I´M ALIVE!!!..... Estoy vivo


I have had the most emotional, painful and stressful week of my entire life... On Monday morning I was here at hospice when Andy kept asking me for Mia, so I went over to our house and picked her up. Once she was here, Andy said take her back home please. I insisted that I wanted her to stay but he asked that I take her back home. I did and when I came back my brother in law Ben was here. As soon as I walked in, Andy started getting really sick. He started throwing up, his heart rate went up to 190, and his pulse was slowing down, as well as his breathing. The nurse was crying and talked to me and said please call his family or whoever you need to call, I feel like he has 24 to 48 hours - she was not the only one that told me that, every nurse, nurse's aid, even the doctor thought that he had 48 hours. So, I called everyone and the rest of my family flew back from Mexico. Part of his family was here too. We all didn´t sleep and we all said our good-bye's. I cried so much, so often, I was in shock and he did look like he was ready to go back to his home in Heaven.
In fact, he kept talking with angels. He said it so often, that one angel was always to his right and he said there were a lot of them in the room. He also told me that some animal angels were here. When my brother and sister got here, the three of us were singing some of Andy's favorite songs and Andy smiled and said, he really liked this song. I asked who really like that song? He whispered, the angel that is here and he turned his head to his right - he said keep playing it, he likes it.

Another time I was laying down in his bed, his respirations were slowing down so much, I was thinking that was going to be the moment. He was asleep must of the time but then he said, hey, hey you, this is my wife Leyla, he turned to me and whispered "say hi" and I said hi! I am Leyla. Andy said, "Isn´t she beautiful?" And I asked, "Who is this?" Andy said, "Another angel, they are always here... "

That night I realized that Andy was ready to go back to his real home in heaven. He told me that in his "dreams" everyone said it too. He looked like that, it felt like that, we were literally waiting for his last breath, counting how many times he was breathing a minute. We were just waiting and getting ready for that.

Two nights ago I had a little "problem" with someone here at the hospice. This person said that Andy couldn't die because my family kept coming into the room and he couldn't be in peace because they wouldn't let him go. This person asked them to please just stay away so he could go, because he was ready. After praying for an answer, I went to this person and said, he loves my family, they are an extended family for him. He talks to my brother on a daily basis and he makes him laugh. He tells my mom all of his good times and bad times and calls her almost every day. He calls my sister a daughter. He loves my family and he will die whenever Heavenly Father wants him to go. If he doesn´t go, it is because Heavenly Father has a different plan, not because my family doesn´t let him.

I went back to Andy´s room and I prayed for some peace and for some understanding of what is happening. I prayed for signs of light. I couldn't sleep at all that night and around 6 in the morning my sign was sent...

Andy woke up, talking, lucid, alert and said I want to talk to you. I know that the facts are different, I know that the doctors and nurses think I am ready to die and some people have given up on me. Please "mi vida" don´t give up on me, please don´t give up on me, I am not ready to die, I want to get my next doses of "keytruda." I am not dying right now, don´t give up on me... and even if I die, if Heavenly Father wants me to go right now, I will follow him but I will die fighting. I will die trying, I will die not giving up.

So I believe in him!!I will never give up on you ANDY, we will never give up on you, we will be fighting next to you until the end. "I will never quit," he said.

We are waiting to see how this week goes and will try to go home soon. Yesterday he had blood in his urine his breathing was a little faster and he was more alert. He ate and watched some TV and he still looks pretty sick but he looks way better than a few days ago. He really wants to go home, even if we have to come back to hospice soon. He really wants to be back home, so we will try to make it happen. Today when he woke up he told my brother, "I bet you anything that people at the hospice are saying, 'Seriously, when is this guy going to die? Who is this guy?'"

He was laughing and my brother was joking with him and said I am going to burn the suit that I brought for your funeral, and Andy was laughing and said I felt like I was dying too but remember, I always get up!

I am not sure of what the future holds. I don´t know if he will die this week or the next one or in months in the future but I know that I am not going to listen to absolutely anyone anymore - not the doctors, the nurses, family or anyone. The only one that knows is Heavenly Father. This week I learned that He truly is the only one that knows what's happening. I will trust and believe on him, I will accept His will, I will listen to what He is trying to tell me. I accept his will, no matter what, if it is hours, days, weeks or months, I will be okay with it, after knowing that we had just two days with the love of my life I realized that I wasn´t really accepting Heavenly Father's will. I was more worried about my pain and forgot that He has a plan, that He knows when and will always be with me. He sent those angels to this room to show me and let me know that He is with us, that we will never be alone, that Andy has an army of angels watching over him and I will trust His plan.

Thanks so much for your love and prayers for the past week. I apologize for the confusion and pain that this week brought to all of us but I hope you can feel the way I feel - faith is stronger than anything else and Heavenly Father is the only one in control. Andy is one of a kind and he will fight til the end. I love you Andy, I love you so much and I will never give up on you!!!!!!!!

ESPAÑOL:
He tenido los dias mas dolorosos, dificiles y estresantes de toda mi vida 
El lunes por la manana entramos aqui al hospicio, y Andy siempre me esta preguntando por Mia, fui a la casa por ella, para llevarla con Andy; cuando llegue Andy 
me dijo: Llevatela por favor, te dije que la trajeras pero mejor llevatela a casa, lo que hice fue regresarla a casa. 
Mi Cunado ben estaba aqui, en cuanto entre a su cuarto Andy comenzo  sentirse realmente mal, el comenzo a vomitar heces fecales,  su coraz'on latia a 190 y de 
momento fue disminuyendo, asi como su respiracion, el estaba respirando solo 3 veces por minuto, la enfermera comenzo a llorar y me dijo por favor llama a su familia 
o a quien necesiten llamar, siento que solo tiene 24 a 48 horas de vida, no fue la unica que me dijo eso, todas las enfermeras me dijeron que maximo 48 horas tendria, 
y asi lo hice, llame a todos, el resto de mi familia volo de  Mexico, parte de su familia estuvo aqui tambien, no durmio nadie ese dia, todos le dijimos adios, llore muchisimo 
estuve varias veces en shock, y el parecia estar listo para regresar a casa "el cielo". 
De hecho el frecuentemente se mantuvo hablando con angeles, y decia que un angel estaba muy cerca de el, a SU DERECHA, Hay muchos en el cuarto, de hecho me dijo que habia 
animales, angeles con forma de animal o animales con forma de angeles, hay muchos y estan aqui. 
Cuando mi hermano llego aqui, mi hermana el y yo cantamos canciones que a el le gustan, y dijo " A el le gusta mucho esa cancion" yo le pregunte A QUIEN? 
el contesto con un suspiro: al Angel que esta aqui, senalando a su derecha a un angel que solo el podia ver. 
EL dijo: sigan tocando al angel le gusta. 
Me acoste en su cama y su re4spiracion estaba muyn lenta, yo estaba segura que ya era la hora, que esa seria su hora de partir.
El estaba adormilado, la mayor parte del tiempo, y se la pasabe diciendo, hey!! ella es mi esposa Leyla, el volteaba y me decia Leyla di Hola. 
y pues yo dije Hola, sin seguir viendo nada, es hermosa verdad? dijo Andy , y yo le pregunte con quien hablas y El le contesto, otro angel, El siempre esta aqui. 
Esa noche yo me di cuenta que Andy estaba listo para partir a su verdadera casa en el cielo, El me dijo eso en sus suenos, y todos pensabamos lo mismo, eso parecia y asi se 
 sentia,literalmente esperabamos por su ultimo suspiro contando cuantas veces respiraba por minuto y estabamos solo esperando a que sucediera. 
Dos noches atras yo tuve un problemita con alguien aqui en el hospicio esta persona dijo que Andy no podia morir porque mi familia estaba aqui y que no lo dejabamos partir 
y que Else mantenia con nosotros sin estar en paz, y esta misma persona le pidio a mi familia que se alejara para que el pudiera partir. despues de orar por una respuesta yo 
 fui con esta persona y le dije: El ama a mi familia, ellos on una familia para El, el habla con mi hermano todos los dias y mi hermano lo hace reir y reir, el es su mejor 
amigo, el le cuenta a mi madre todos sus problemas o felicidades, el habla con mi madre casi todos los dias, llama a mi hermana "hija" y ama a mi familia y el va a 
morir cuando Dios quiera y si no se va es porque Dios asi lo quiere y el tiene otro plan mas no porque mi familia no lo deje, volvi al cuarto de Andy y solamente pedia 
por paz, rogaba que alguien me entendiera lo que estaba pasando por lo que ore por una senal y una luz, no pude dormir en toda la noche y a las 6:00 am mi senal aparecio. 
Andy desperto hablando , lucido, alerta y me dijo mi vida quiero hablar contigo, yo se que los hechos dicen otra cosa , yo se que los doctores y enfermeras piensan que 
voy a morir, mi familia se rindio, la gente se rindio, los doctores se rindieron por favor "mi vida tu no te des por vencida" yo no m voy a morir, quiero y voy a obtener 
 la proxima dosis de Keytruda no me voy a morir hoy  no te rindas y aunque muera si Dios quiere que me vaya me ire, pero me voy pataleando, voy a morir peleando y voy a 
morir sin darme por vencido y en ese momento le crei, tampoco me dare por vencida , no nos daremos por vencidos y vamos a morir peleando. 
Estamos esperando esta semana y estamos con la esperanza de regresar a casa aunque sea por un dia , ayer su orina tenia sangre , su respiracion estaba un poco rapida pero 
el estaba alerta, Andy comio y miro television, pero seguia luciendo muy enfermo ,pero se ve muchisimo mejor que los dias anteriores, el desea de corazon ir a casa , aunque 
regresemos al hospicio pero el desea llegar a casa y estamos haciendo todo lo posible para que esto suceda. 
Hoy cuando desperto le dijo a mi hermano: te apuesto todo a que la gente en el hospicio esta pensando cuando ira a estirar la parta este canijo?, de que planeta es? y 
estuvo riendo y bromeando con mi hermano y mi hermano le dijo voy a quemar eltraje que empaque en este viaje para tu funeral, Andy se rio y dijo la verdad si senti que me iba 
a morir pero recuerda yo siempre me levanto, no se que nos depara el futuro y no se si morira esta semana o la proxima o quisa en unos meses, lo unico que se es que no 
voy a escuchar a nadie ni a nadie, ni a los doctores ni a los enfermeros, ni a mi familia ni a nadie, solo voy a hacer caso a mi padre celestial y que esta semana aprendi 
que solamente el sabe que va a pasar, creo y confio en el y voy a aceptar lo que el decida , voy a escuchar lo que el me quiera decir y aceptarlo no importa lo que sea, 
si son dias , semanas o meses, yo voy a estar bien despues de saber que nos regalo una semana mas de amor en la vida. 
Me di cuenta que no estaba del todo aceptando lo que Dios quiere y estaba preocupada por mi y mi dolor y me olvide por un momento de su plan y que el sabe cuando sucedera y que 
el esta conmigo . Estoy segura que el mando esos angeles a mi cuarto para ensenarnos que el esta con nosotros, que nunca estaremos solos y que Andy tiene un ejercito de 
angeles cuidandolo . 
Gracias por su amor y por sus oraciones de esta semana y perdonenme por la confusion y el dolor que les cause pero espero que puedan sentir asi como yo siento esta fe mas 
fuerte que nada y que Dios es el unico que tiene el control. Les aseguro que Andy es uno de esos hombres que morira peleando y me prometio que no se rendira jamas . 
TE AMO ANDY TE AMO MUCHO Y TAMPOCO ME DARE POR VENCIDA!

Terminal Cancer? The words no one wants to hear...


I have been trying to write down what’s going on with Andy, but believe it or not there is always something going on and I haven´t gotten a chance to sit down and update the blog.

So a week and a half ago Andy started having this severe pain in his lower back, I told him we should go to the doctor and he said, “No, I will be okay.” Thursday, things got worse and I told him we should go to the ER but he didn´t want to he said, “Let’s wait until tomorrow.” He was afraid that if we came he was not going to be able to come back home. 
Friday
morning we came to the ER and he was right, he got admitted right away. The pain was awful he was not doing well; his heart rate was super high, his blood pressure was low, and the pain was horrible, they tried everything and still he was not feeling any better.

They did tons of test and they found out that the Cancer has grown all over his spine. The T12 and the T 10 (I believe) is full of cancer, his vertebra, the adrenal gland, part of his kidney, two tumors in his liver, muscle, nerves, and a few days later we found out that also 8 tumors in his chest. 

So the reason he was having so much pain is because the cancer is getting into one of the nerves that helps you pretty much walk and of course because the bones in his spine are full with freaking Cancer. 

Three days ago he started showing some weakness in his legs, he wanted to walk but every time he tried he just couldn't do it. Two days ago he couldn't walk anymore but he was able to still move his legs. Yesterday he couldn’t even move his legs, so he definitely can’t walk at all or move his legs.

He also started presenting some incontinence, I doubted in writing about this but after talking with him we agreed that we want people that are going through something similar to know. We want them to know that physical damage it’s just that. Physical. Anyway, he is wearing a diaper and yesterday they had to put a catheter because he couldn't pee anymore on his own. He has to wear diapers and getting him out of bed is such a project but no matter what he remains positive, he keeps having a smile on his face and he doesn´t complain about anything.

His favorite thing ever is when the kids come to see him, he loves to sit with David and look at his baseball cards, or sit with Mia and color with her. I have been trying to spend more time with the kids because they miss their daddy so much.

Yesterday Andy’s oncologist (AKA an Angel) came to visit him at the hospital, we talked about what Andy wants and what things can be done. A couple months ago we started the process of finding a medical trial for Andy. Thanks to his condition and the aggressive type of Cancer that he has, it is really hard to find a different option in terms of trials. Especially because most of the trials won’t take patients that already had a stem cell or bone marrow transplant. SO the options for Andy were not very many. They started doing all the research and all the genetic studies and they found out that one of the sequences of Andy’s Cancer qualifies him for this thing called INMUNOTHERAPHY and the name of the medication is KEYTRUDA. Once that we found this out his doctor started trying to find the way to get his medication for him. His insurance won’t covert it at all, and each medication is $35,000 dollars and he would need it every 3 weeks if it works. Of course we can’t afford that so she sent an application for a compassion organization and we found out yesterday that they approved him!!!!!!!!! 

You can watch a video about what Keytruda is here:

His oncologist wanted to make sure that we know that this medication won’t be a trial for him because it hasn´t been tested in his type of Cancer ever before. He will be the first person ever with this type of Cancer that will be trying this new medication. She wanted us to know the risk of this trial, that the side effects can make his condition even worse, or it can work and it can teach his cells to fight against the cancer cells. She also wanted us to know that the neurological damage can be permanent or not, at this point she said that it’s so hard to say what it will happen and that we won’t know until we are there.

She said that she will leave it to Andy and she will do and respect his wishes. So Andy told her... “Just throw me everything that you have, I can take it. At this point what else can I lose, if it works great and if not at least patients in the future will be able to benefit from my experience and this way I can help others and at least  you will know that it doesn’t work, just give me everything that you have and I can take it...”  So we will try that medication soon and see what happens...

I am with him, I respect all of his decisions and I will be next to his side in every single step of the way and in anything that he wants to do... He will stay here at the hospital for few more days until he can get that Keytruda. After that we need to make a decision of where he needs to be, either home care nurse, or high skilled nursing home, or something like that. Since he can’t move or do anything else for now, I definitely will need help taking care of him. I am not worried at all, I know that Heavenly Father will guide us and will help us in every single thing just like He has done.

Thanks to my sister and brother in law we have been able to take the kids to a counselor and have some kind of guidance in how to talk to them about what’s happening. I finally had to tell them that daddy will probably go home with Heavenly Father and that it will probably be soon. David asked a lot of questions, he was confused and mad, he wanted to know every single detail of it and he asked why I keep praying for him to be okay and why even with all this prayers he is going to go to Heaven. I told him that his prayers are working, that daddy had the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful amazing summer next to him and Mia and that if daddy goes with Heavenly Father he won’t have pain anymore and the most important thing he will be patiently waiting for us until we can meet him again and then we will be able to spend all the eternity next to him... He asked will I be able to play baseball with him in Heaven? I told him of course! Everything will be perfect there!

On the other hand little Mia broke my heart, when I had the same conversation with her my sweet girl just cried and cried, I told her at bed time and I was hugging her as she was crying, she asked me is it going to be today? I told her, no baby girl not today but it will be soon, she said tomorrow? I said I am not sure when but I want you to know that whenever this will happen I will  be here with you and daddy will be always here next to you too, even if you can´t see him. Then things got worse after she asked, wait I won’t be able to see him anymore? Can he just come back for a minute at least a night? I explained to her that once that he is in heaven he can’t physically come to see us, but we will be able to feel his spirit and he will never ever leave you he will be always here with us. She was freaking out and me too. I tried to be strong and calm as much as possible but it was definitely one of the hardest things that I have ever done.

Who knows what will happen, or when or how. All I know is that I love Andy so so much, and that I feel his unconditional love too, that If I had the choice of doing this or not I would totally do it all over again because I love him. I don´t care if he can´t walk or if he can´t move or if I need to change a diaper or if I need to stop and freeze life. I absolutely don’t care and I know with all my heart that if the tables were turned there is no doubt in my mind that he would do absolutely the same.

My intention with this blog post is the next. If you are going through a hard time in your life, if you feel overwhelmed and worried about what’s happening to you. Just stop, drop everything and stop, take a minute to look around and you will see that there is always beauty and blessings around you, Andy has taught me that even when your body doesn’t move, doesn’t respond, the most important thing in you is your heart, soul and thoughts. Don’t let the world overwhelm you making you think that physical things are important, because they are not, as long as your heart, soul and mind are in a good place, nothing else can take you down.

Thank you so much for keep supporting us in so many different ways. Andy loves visitors and his room looks amazing with all of your cards.
Love
Leyla

My intention with this blog post is the next. If you are going trhough a hard time in your life, if you feel overwhalmed and worried about whats happening to you. just stop, dop eberything and stop, take a minute to look around and you will see that there is alway beauty and blesings around you, Andy has thaught me that even when your body doesnt move, doesnt respond, the most important thing in you is your heart, soul and thaughts, don´t let the world overwhalmed you making you think that phisical things are important, because they are not, as long as your heart, soul and mind are in a good place, nothing else can take you down.

Thank you so much for keep suporting us in so many diferent ways, Andy loves visitors and his room looks amazing with all of your cards

Cancer sucks less with Zac Brown Band #teamAndy #sunsetsforAndy.............Cancer es mas facil conZac Brown Band


After two years battling with mediastinal germ cell Cancer, Andy, 31 yrs old, has been admitted several times in different hospitals, he has had tons of chemo and transplants and we have spent days and nights in a hospital room. I remember one specific day after one of the strongest chemos that he has had, when the pain meds were not enough, when the nausea meds were doing nothing, I remember him asking me to get close to him to give him a hug, I remember him asking me please do something please help me... After realizing that doctors and nurses were doing everything that they could I ask him, what about music in the ipad? He said please put Zac Brown Band. "No Hurry" (Andy's favorite song) started playing and I remember how Andy slowly started to calm down.


Zac Brown music has such a big meaning for our family; his music has been close to us in our darkest and happiest moments of our lives. I honestly have to admit that I was not a big fan, coming from Mexico where country music doesn't exist I had no idea of who Zac Brown Band was until Andy introduced me to their music. I can tell you that one of our happiest memories as a family is driving in the car with the music really loud, my two kids in the back singing to the top of their lungs to "No hurry" , " Toes" or "Chicken Fried". Another song that makes me cry is "Whatever it is" since it’s the song that Andy dedicates to me.


Anyway, after finding out that Andy's Cancer was back for the 3rd time and that is now stage 4 Cancer spreading to his spine, I decided that we needed to make his bucket list, I sat down one day with him at the hospital and asked him, what are the things that you really really want to do? One of them was going to a Zac Brown Concert. I wrote a blog post that same day.

Little did I know that a big crazy blessing was about to come. I didn't know but I found out that my mother in law contacted the Zamily sending them my blog... if you are like me you would be asking yourself what is the Zamily? Well it is a family, a family that is integrated by Zac Brown Band fans... One of the members of the Zamily, Jennifer McFarlane, saw my mother in law's post and she didn't blink to start working on helping Andy. With the help of Jenny T Bird Gabriel, Sasha, and more and more people in less than 24 hour they had everything ready for us. Jennifer gave me a call to let me know that the Zamily donated money to make Andy's dream come true, they got us plane tickets, money for a rental car, food, tickets to the concert ( in the PIT) and Kristee Proctor donated her Eat and Greet tickets so Andy could meet Zac. My friend Candace Spurlock booked a hotel for us.

Going on a trip was not easy, Andy is in a lot of pain, can't really walk or talk that much but I knew how special this trip was going to be for him ...We left Arizona not knowing what an amazing time we were going to have. First we met with some of the Zamily members and T Bird for a gathering at a restaurant, T bird, the Zamily manager is one of the sweetest down earth people I have ever met, her sweet words and hugs and smiles are priceless, she gave us our tickets and was so so amazing with us.




 When we got to the Eat and Greet we never expected what it was going to happen. In Andy's head, the fact of just going to Zac Brown Band Concert was enough; we never expected anything else or never imagined what was about to happen. T bird let Andy be the first person to get at the eat and greet, as soon as Zac Brown Band got into the place immediately Zac got close to Andy, he got down since Andy was in his wheel chair and he talked to him.

Andy says he told Zac how much his music has helped him during time of trial and Zac was the nicest with him. You would think that someone this famous and with all these people around him would be cold and careless, NO! He was so nice with Andy and he has no idea what his actions meant to my husband. Pictures and videos are not allow at the eat and greet but they made it happen! They took us to the back and Zac came to take a picture with Andy and talked a little bit more with him. Clay, one of the members of the band came to talk to Andy too and asked him what do you want to hear tonight? Andy said, my favorite "no hurry" Clay said we are not playing that tonight but let me talk to Zac.

Tbird the Zamily manager assigned a security guy to be with us and the Zamily helped us save spots in the PIT so Andy could be comfortable and safe. I will never forget Andy's face when the concert started, he was SO happy, I was in tears all night.

 
During the concert Zac made sure to get close to Andy several times, to point at him, fist bump him, they gave Andy the tambourine during the concert, the guitar pic, the drum sticks.
 

During one part of the concert Zac tossed tshirts to the public and Tbird came to the stage and handed me t-shirt with autographs for Andy and two other t-shirts, she also printed a picture of her Andy and me with the sweetest words on it.


 After that Zac gave white roses (each rose to each girl) to the girls that were in the PIT and he gave 4 roses to me! Can you imagine how I felt? To me it was so meaningful it was like someone saying thank you for everything that you are doing for your husband! It really touched my heart. A girl pulled my hair because she wanted to steal one of the roses!! ha-ha they get crazy and intense!


 
Close to the end of the concert Zac started talking and he said, this song is for my friend Andy Moss, and he played "No hurry" I cried and cried non stop its like his hymn, at the end of the song Zac got close to Andy to shake his hand as he explained who Andy was, he talked about how the Zamily made this trip this possible and at the end he said "We love you Andy" as the venue was screaming, clapping and standing for Andy... did you get goose bumps? I know I still do every time I remember this special moment.

Here is a video of Zac talking about Andy!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2Nxq0WdrHA

 I have never in a million years imagined this, this not just made Andy checked this off his bucket list but it marked his life forever. He and I will always have this memory of this special day when someone that he admires decided to recognize Andy’s fight and courage.


 Zac Brown Band, if you are reading this I want to say thank you, thank you for being who you are, thank you for showing that you care, thank you for your music, it has truly made an impact in our family. Thank you for your song "bittersweet" I can almost swear that was written for Andy and I. Our love story, our fight, our feelings here in one song. Thank you for being a part of our family memories and especially thank you for helping a wonderful young man to check one of his bucket lists items off!



You can listen to Bittersweet here, think about Andy and grab a tissue!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPvyfLtlI-A

To the Zamily, you have no idea what this trip meant to us, you have no idea what you did, thanks to you Andy was able to check off other things of his bucket list ( I will write about it soon) not just the concert, you are a big group of loving, caring amazing people, we will be forever grateful and we will never be able to thank you enough. And like if you haven't done enough you guys are still helping us in getting us to Boston so Andy can check off one more thing of his list, a Red Sox game! You guys rock!
If you want to help Andy get to Boston go here http://www.youcaring.com/andy-moss-373454 or contact me leylamoss@gmail.com :) he also wants to meet David Beckham so we are still working on that :)


Tbird. That big heart of yours is amazing, we are so blessed to have met you, and your sweet words meant a lot and your actions even more! It’s crazy how Heavenly Father puts the right people at the right time in our lives. I don't believe in coincidences I know he moves everything and he knew that you were going to bless our family! We already love you!


From now on I consider myself a HUGE fan of Zac Brown Band. From now on I would love to be a part of this amazing Zamily. Please keep Andy on your prayers he will be having more chemo tomorrow ... Love!!! Leyla #teamAndy #sunsetsforAndy

CANCER ES MAS FACIL CON ZAC BROWN BAND!

Después de dos años luchando contra el cáncer de células germinales del mediastino, Andy, 31 años de edad, ha sido admitido en varias ocasiones en diferentes hospitales, ha tenido muchas quimioterapia y trasplantes y hemos pasado días y noches en un cuarto de hospital.Recuerdo que un día en específico, unA de las más Fuertes quimios que han tenido, cuando los medicamentos para el dolor no eran suficientes, cuando los medicamentos para la náuseas no estaban haciendo nada, me acuerdo que el me dijo por favor ayudame, has algo por favor ayudame, en eso se me ocurrio decirle, que tal musica? y el me dijo si! ponme a ZAc Brown Band. Y asi lo hice, inmediatamente su cara se calmo, inmediatamente se tranquilizo.



Zac Brown Band ha tenidomucho impacto en nuestras vidas, su musica ha formado parte de los momentos mas dificiles de ella pero asi como tambien ha sido parte de los momentos mas felices. Uno de los recuerdos que tengo de Zac Brown Band es yo manejando en mi carro con Andy a un lado, con la musica a todo volumen y nusestros hijos cantando atras casi gritando la musica de Zac Brown Band, especialmente la cancion favorita de Andy, "no hurry"



Despues de habernos enterado que el cancer de Andy habia regresado por tercera vez en dos anos pero esta vez etapa 4 regandose a sus huesos y espina, un dia decidi que teniamos que hacer una lista de sus ultimos deseos, le pregunte, que te gustaria hacer? dime una de las cosas que quisieras hacer con todo tu Corazon versa que trataremos lo possible de cumplirlas... una de esas cosas fue ir a un conierto de Zac Brown, jamas nos imaginamos lo que iba a suceder.



Para los que no estan familiarizados con este grupo, es un grupo de musica country y han Ganado mas de tres grammys! osea son super famosos aca asi es que la verdad jamas me imagine que iba a suceder lo siguiente.



La manager del grupo nos contacto, el club de fans de ZAc Brown que se llama Zamily nos pago los boletos de avion, los boletos de entrada, otra persona nos regalo los boletos para una convivencia que el grupo tendria con sus fans, nos pagaron comidas, renta de carro, todo!

cuando llegamos a la convivencia la manager nos recibio como reyes, nos asigno a un tipo de seguridad y en cuanto llego el grupo, el lider del grupo se acerco a Andy, estuvo platicando con el, y Andy le dijo lo mcuho que significaba su musica para el.



Ahi no dejaban tomar fotos asi es que al final de la convivencia nos llevaron para atras del evento y ZAc llego a tomarse fotos con Andy y a platicar un poco con el.



DEspues de esto uno de los ingegrantes del grupo hablo con andy y le pregunto que cancion queria escuchar y Andy le dijo "no hurry" el muchacho le contesto, mmm no la vamos a tocar hoy pero dejame hablar con ZAc a ver que podemos hacer.



Los fans nos trataron de maravilla, el concierto fue casi casi para Andy, Zac se encargo de venir a saludar a andy, le regalaron durante el concierto el pandero, la espiga de la guitarra, las baquetas, le firmaron una playera que la manager nos dio durante el concierto, y una de las cosas mas especiales fue que ZAc le regalo una rosa blanca a cada una de las muchachas que estaban cerca del scenario pero a mi me dio 4! fue como alguien famoso diciendo, gracias Leyla por lo que haces por tu esposo, de verdad significo mucho para mi.



Antes de que terminara el concierto Zac dijo, esta cancion va para Andy Moss! y canto "no hurry" al terminar la cancion camino hacia a Andy para darle la mano al mismo tiempo que ZAc hablaba de ANdy, dijo Andy ha estado luchando contra este cancer y los fans de la banda lograron que estuviera aqui con nosotros, Andy te queremos! no se imaginan como llore y que tan especial fue ese momento para nosotros, llore y segui llorando pues miles y miles de personas gritaban se paraban y aplaudian a Andy



Zac no se imagina lo feliz que hizo a mi esposo, no creo en las coincidencias, se que todo es obra de Nuestro Padre Celestial moviendo todo para hacer feliz a Andy

:)



Pueden escuchar la cancion favorite de Andy no hurry aqui

O la otra cancion que me hace llorar que juro que casi casi se la escribieron a Andy aqui

What do we need? And What do we want? Andys bucket list...... QUE QUEREMoS y QUE NECESITAMOS... Últimos deseos de Andy

Traducción en español hasta abajo... 
Warning! Long post :)

(I want to start this post with a little background of who Andy is because a lot of people are sharing my blog and I feel like the new people need an update on Andy...)
Andy was diagnosed with Mediastinal Germ Cell cancer a week before Christmas of 2013. He had an 11cm tumor next to his heart, one in his lung and two in his lymph nodes. He had around 40 chemo treatments, 25 radiations, two bone marrow transplants, two major surgeries and I can go on and on with what he has gone through fighting against this terrible horrible disease!! 
Recently his tumors came back and a new one was found by his spine and kidney, after his last surgery (where they took his liver out, cut his spine and the vertebrae had some nerves removed by the tumor and then they put the liver back in, removed tumor by his heart, lungs, etc) he was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer, thanks to the metastasis in his bones.. (His spine)

He is currently having more radiations now and he will have more chemo probably next week, this chemo it's called salvage chemo.  He is 31 years old and was born in Utah, and we now live in Arizona and have been married for 9 beautiful, crazy, fun years! We have two amazing kids, sweet active David who is 7 years old and sassy loving Mia who just turned 4 years old. Andy is such a positive guy, he truly is a hero!!  He has always put his family first and he believes that Heavenly Father has a plan for him...he believes that families are eternal and forever!  He has dedicated his life to sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, he loves his church, reads the scriptures and prays...he knows that there is something bigger waiting for him. He truly understands the Plan of Salvation!  He is a wonderful loving husband, dad and friend. He would do absolutely everything and whatever it takes to make his kids happy, and I mean whatever!! He is a faithful man. 
He is fun, loves sarcasms, loves music and sports...OH! How much he loves sports!!!! He played baseball all of his life and became a soccer maniac after his LDS mission in Mexico. He is the perfect friend and a great listener.  He is a hard worker and always tried his best, as a matter of fact, wherever he worked, he was always on the "top of the lists" because he always did his best!
He is so funny and yet he can be reserved and quiet, but out of nowhere he can make a small sarcastic comment and make everyone laugh! He is so handsome and such a gentleman, still opens the car door for me, still writes me love notes or texts, still writes me letters or makes me signs...He honestly, is the perfect man in my eyes!  He has suffered so much and has been through a lot, for instance,  right now he is admitted in the hospital and his pain is uncontrollable...yet he wants to keep fighting this "stupid cancer" as he calls it... He is just amazing!!
I have had A LOT of people contacting me and asking me, "What do you guys need?"  "What can we do for you?" "How can we help?" 
When they ask me, I answer,  "just prayers", because honestly it's the most important thing that we need right now, but at the same time, the truth is, I am embarrassed to ask for more and more help!  ...It has been 18 months that we have been getting all kinds of help and sometimes I just feel bad asking for more!  Last week I was talking to one of Andy's nurses, that became a good friend, (she also had a medical situation with her son) and she told me, "Just be honest, ask for what you need and people will understand"

...So here I am, trust me, this post is not easy for me...No, not at all...

Deciding to stay home and take care of Andy, knowing that finances need to be taken care of, has been one of the hardest things during this trial. I know, trust me, that if I find a full time job, all of my worries and financial trouble will be over and taken care of.  I promise, that if Andy is not here with us, the first thing I am going to do, literally the first thing, will be to find a full time job, to provide for my kids! But right now, I think, how will I get this "precious time" back with him, if I leave him now and go to work?  I'd rather be in a financial crisis, and be able to spend this precious time with my husband and children then be free of financial trials...
 
 negative and truly people don't care, but it has honesty been so hard! Another example, someone gave Andy money for a new ,  
 
I will be brutally honest and tell you know what we need...

First of all,  and most important on my list, I need help with paying my mortgage for the next few months...I don't want the cash in my hands or the check, I would like to give the information of our mortgage company, the amount, etc. and have it be taken care of.  Our house is one of the things that I don't want to sell or loose, my kids have been through a lot of changes and I don't want this to be one more thing they have to deal with.

I need help paying the HOA bill that went to a lawyers firm, because we were not able to pay it.  They have our case now, it is around $2000, once again, I don't need/want the money in my hands, I can give someone who wants to help the information.

I need help paying a specific medical bill (the rest are okay and "under control") but this one is driving me crazy! The amount is around $1000 and it went to collections. They call me so often, so that would be amazing if we can get it taken care of...

I need help refinancing our house, I need someone that we trust and that can help us make things go smooth and fast, to lower our mortgage...I would prefer going with someone that we know...

I need help with my backyard, people from church has been amazing!  But I need someone to come on regular basis, I am not sure how often, but however often a yard needs to be taken care of, same with front yard...

I need help getting the school supplies for next year, I am not sure what David needs but I know the list is not that cheap...

I need help finding a family counselor, one who specifies in children...obviously, I can't afford it, but I would really really love to have my children have this help, I am not sure how to explain all this to them and I am freaking out about the future and I know this will be really helpful for them.  I would prefer someone in our area or close to our house, I can even trade photography for this in order to get them into a good counselor.  If Andy is in the hospital, I will also need some help taking them to and from the facility. 

Help paying for Andy's student loans, not the entire amount, but the monthly payment, it's not that much (around $180 a month).  I haven't been able to pay it for the last two months...same thing, I don't want the money, just need help sending the bill... 

WHAT DO WE WANT?

Well, I should rephrase this to, "WHAT DOES ANDY WANT"---His BUCKET LIST...because to be honest, I would rather just stay home, because doing all these things that he wants to do makes me nervous and worried! lol  ...But here are nine things that Andy really wants to do... Obviously he can't do anything right now, since he is in the hospital, but this  is if he gets feeling a little better...

1. His first on his list needs an explanation...here is the story...He wanted to be in a motorcycle club 2 or 3 years ago, he got all of the guys together, but thanks to me, he didn't finished that and he had to step down, I know I was the worst, but anyway... He really really wants to do this, so he is trying to get some of his motorcycle friends together to see if he can make this happen again! So if you are one of those motorcycle friends or from the " Templar Knights " from Utah, please help him out! This is something that he wants to finish, he wants to earn his patches back, have a club here in Mesa, etc... It may sound silly, but it's something that he really wants to do...

2. He wants to go to Utah where he was born, he wants to show David, now that he is older, where he used to live and play...we can't drive that far, so he would need to fly...His extended family is there and he specifically wants to go to his Grandma's house. He also really wants to see his friend Blake.  

3. Andy wants to go to Boston, and attend a Red Sox game, and take our son David with him, he is a big fan of the Red Soxs and so is David...David's dream is to be a famous baseball player someday! And wants to meet David Ortiz"Big Papi" I call my David my "little Papi".

4. He wants to go back to Mexico and see all the people that he met while serving his two year LDS mission in 2003-05. This one in particular makes me nervous, because it is out of the country and I am afraid this one won't be possible, but who knows right?

5. He always wanted to go to Hawaii, since we got married, and we said we were going to go once we had saved enough money and that never happened...

6. Skydiving... I know this one sounds impossible too, right now, but I am just putting it out there, so I remember!
 
7. He wants to meet the owners of HotChalk to thank them personally, actually, when we went to California, he kept thinking he wanted to meet them, but their offices were just way too far from where we were... 

8. He wants to go to a Zac Brown Band concert.. He is a country guy and Zac Brown Band is his favorite!

9. Ok this one seems and sounds crazy, but as you know, he loves soccer too and he wants to meet David Beckham...!!! That's why he named my son David,he admires him and is a huge fan of all of beckhams charity work,  this one definitely sounds impossible, but once again, who knows, right? I believe in the power of social media! :) 
Here is the link of the video that Andy made for David Beclham of you can help us share it!! 

Other way to help is sharing this post :)

10. Take the kids to Disneyland 

11. Go back to his favorite place, Carlsbard CA.

Once again, these are things that are not a "need", but that would make him happy... And I would do anything, whatever it takes, to make him happy...

We have been overwhelmingly happy to see the response of #sunsetsforAndy. I asked in my last blog post to pray for him every time you enjoy a sunset and share a sunset picture for Andy, with the hashtag #sunsetsforAndy. And at the end of the day, he seats in his recliner and sees all of your pictures. They make him feel loved, I see him sitting there and see how he is smiling as he reads your posts, they are bringing him so much light and love!! So thanks for sharing them with him!! He loves them... Right now,  I ask you guys to pray for some pain free days...

Feel free to contact me at leylamoss@gmail.com 

We will be forever grateful with ANY help we can possibly get, I know I have been an open book and that we need a lot of things, but at the same time, I know that we are loved and that things some how will work out ...Feel free to share this post, who knows, maybe David Beckham will read it!  LOL...

Love,

---------------------------------------



¡Advertencia! Es un post largo así que solo lee si tienes tiempo ..
Quiero empezar este post con un poco de historia de quién es Andy, porque mucha gente está compartiendo mi blog y me siento que la gente nueva en mi blog necesitan una actualización de Andy ...

Andy fue diagnosticado con cáncer de células germinales del mediastino una semana antes de la Navidad de 2013. Tenía un tumor de 11 cm al lado de su corazón, uno en su pulmón y dos de sus ganglios linfáticos. Tuvo  alrededor de 40 chemos, 25 radiaciones, dos trasplantes de médula ósea, dos cirugías de alto riesgo  y puedo seguir y seguir con lo que ha hecho y lo que ha vivido durante la lucha contra esta terrible enfermedad...  Recientemente sus tumores volvieron y uno nuevo fue encontrado por su espina dorsal y el riñón, después de su última cirugía (donde temovieron su hígado le cortaron parte de su columna una vértebra algunos nervios quitaron tumor por el hígado de ahí se lo regresaron le quitaron el tumor x el corazón y el pulmón, etc.) fue diagnosticado con cáncer en etapa 4 gracias a la metástasis ahora en los huesos .. En esta semana  él está teniendo más radiaciones y tendrá de nuevo más quimioterapia, probablemente, en una o dos semanas más. Él tiene 31 años y nació en Utah y vive en Arizona, hemos estado casados ​​por 9 hermosos divertidos  locos años... Tenemos dos hijos increíbles, el activo e inteligente de David que tiene 7 y la atrevida loca amorosa  Mia, que acaba de cumplir 4. Andy es un hombre tan positivo, realmente es un héroe, él siempre ha puesto su familia en primer lugar, él cree que nuestro Padre Celestial tiene un plan para él, él cree que las familias son eternas y para siempre, el ha dedicado su vida a compartir el Evangelio de Jesucristo, ama a su Iglesia, el  lee las Escrituras ora él sabe que hay algo más grande que lo espera... Él realmente entiende el plan de salvación, él es un maravilloso esposo, padre y amigo. Él haría absolutamente todo y lo que sea necesario para hacer sus niños felices y me refiero a lo que sea !! Él es un hombre fiel. Él es divertido y le encantan los sarcasmos y el doble sentido, le encanta la música y los deportes, ohh lo mucho que le encantan los deportes, jugó béisbol durante toda su vida y se convirtió en un fan  del Soccer  después de su misión mormona en México. Él es el amigo perfecto porque sabe escuchar , él es un gran empleado, donde quiera que va siempre es el mejor empleado porque siempre le gusta ser el mejor. 
Él es tan divertido !!! puede ser reservado y tranquilo, pasivo y callado pero cuando menos te lo esperas hace un comentario sarcástico y hace reír a todos. El es tan guapo a poco no? Y es un  caballero, todavía abre la puerta del coche para que yo me suba,  todavía me escribe cartas de amor o textos, me canta, me consiente ...
Honestamente ante mis ojos es el hombre perfecto. Ha sufrido tanto, ha pasado por muchas cosas, en este instante esta admitido en el hospital y su dolor es incontrolable. Y quiere seguir luchando contra este cáncer .. Andy simplemente es increíble ... Es un héroe, un ángel 

He tenido un montón de personas en contactandome  y me preguntan ¿Qué necesitan ?  Qué podemos hacer por ti? Cómo podemos ayudar?
Cuando me preguntan yo sólo respondo sólo oraciones, porque la verdad es que es lo más importante que necesitamos  en este momento, pero al mismo tiempo, la verdad es que me da pena pedir más y más ayuda.
Han pasado 18 meses desde que hemos estado recibiendo todo tipo de ayuda y, a veces me siento mal pidiendo más.
La semana pasada estuve hablando con una de las enfermeras de Andy que se convirtió en una buena amiga, ella paso x a una situación médica con su hijo y ella me dijo que debería yo de ser honesta y pedir lo que necesitamos y la gente va a entender ... Bueno, aquí estoy y este post creanme no es fácil para mí ...

La decisión de quedarse en casa y cuidar de Andy sabiendo que las finanzas tienen que ser atendidas ha sido una de las cosas más difíciles durante esta prueba. Lo sé, creanme, sé que si encuentro un trabajo de tiempo completo todas mis preocupaciones y problemas financieros  se solucionarían, a la ve creanme que si Andy no está aquí con nosotros algún día, lo primero que voy a hacer como literalmente, lo primero será encontrar un trabajo de tiempo completo para mantener a mis hijos, pero en este instante pienso, cromo voy a dejar a Abdy? Como abandonarlo en estos momentos? Jamás!  Yo prefiero estar donde estamos, pero teniendo la oportunidad de  pasar este tiempo precioso con mi marido y los niños.
Otra cosa que ha sido difícil para mí es hacer "cosas normales" hemos recibido  de regalo de ustedes, o personas que me dan boletos o regalos, etc ... Y aquí es un ejemplo de donde quiero llegar con todo esto ... No hace mucho tiempo a mis hijos dieron algunas tarjetas de regalo para ir a la tienda de construye tu propio  Oso, es una tienda muy cara, los llevé a la plaza  y no podía hacer nada mas que ver quien me veía con miedo de que la gente pensara mírala gastándose su dl eel en esta tienda cuando en mi corazón yo sabia que había sido un regalo de parte de los compañeros de Andy a donde quiero llegar es que me siento culpable y con pena de seguir pidiendo ayuda y de que va a pensar la gente, se que no debería de ser así que me debería de valer pero no es así... 

Así que aquí es donde quiero llegar es, por favor, si ustedes ve a mis hijos con juguetes nuevos, cientos de  tarjetas de baseball ropa nueva, en el cine etc o por favor sepan que todo lo que tenemos ha sido regalo o donación para nosotros, que por suerte tenemos un montón de gente que nos ha estado apoyando durante todo  esto, incluso después de tanto tiempo ... Y es por eso que me siento tan mal pidiendo más ayuda porque nos han dado más que suficiente ...

Habiendo dicho eso ... voy a ser brutalmente honesta y decirles que necesitamos ...

En primer lugar y lo más importante en mi lista, necesito ayuda con el pago de la casa durante los próximos meses, no quiero el dinero en mis manos o el cheque les puedo dar la información de nuestra empresa la cantidad de hipotecas, etc. . la casa es una de las cosas que no quiero vender , mis hijos han pasado por muchos cambios y no quiero que este sea uno más ...

Necesito ayuda para pagar la factura y la Asociación de Propietarios que se fue con los abogados porque no pudimos pagarla por lo que ahora tienen nuestro caso, se trata de alrededor de $ 2000, una vez más, no necesito / quiero el dinero en mis manos solo pagarlo 

Necesito ayuda para pagar una factura médica específica (el resto están bien y "bajo control"), pero éste me está volviendo loca, que es alrededor de $ 1000 y se fue a colecciones y me llaman a cada rato y sería increíble si podemos pagarlo 

Necesito ayuda con la refinanciación de nuestra casa, necesito a alguien que confiamos y que pueda ayudarnos a hacer las cosas sin problemas y rápido, yo prefiero ir con alguien que conocemos ...

Necesito ayuda con mi patio , la gente de la iglesia ha sido increíble, pero necesito que alguien venga de manera regular no estoy seguro de cómo o que tan seguido.

Necesito ayuda para conseguir los útiles escolares para el próximo año, no estoy segura de lo que necesita David pero sé que la lista no será  barata ...

Necesito ayuda para encontrar a un consejero de la familia especifico para niños uno, obviamente, no puedo pagarlo pero realmente me encantaria tener a mis hijos hiciera. esto, no estoy segura de cómo explicarles que es lo que esta pasando y me este estreda en pensar en el futuro y como decirles que es lo que puede pasar ... 

Ayuda para pagar los préstamos estudiantiles de Andy, no toda la cantidad, pero el pago mensual, no es que gran parte (alrededor de $ 180 al mes), no he podido pagar por los últimos dos meses, ..

¿QUÉ QUEREMOS?
Bueno, yo debería re escribir  y decir que es  lo que quiere Andy porque realmente yo preferiría no hacer nada por que me estresa el pensar en que algo peor podría pasarle mientras hacemos todas esas cosas que quiere hacer...

1. Quiere terminar lo que inició hace tiempo, su club de motociclistas 

2. Él quiere ir a Utah donde nació, le quiere enseñar a su hijo las calles dl de jugaba, quiere ver a su abuelita y saludar a su amigo Blake... 

3. Él quiere ir a Boston para ver un partido de su equipo favorito los medias rojas  y también es el favorito de David 

4. Él quiere volver a México y ver a toda la gente que conoció en su misión. Ésto me preocupa un poco ya que es un viaje fuera del país pero bueno tal vez ... 

5. Siempre quiso ir a Hawaii, desde que nos casamos dijimos que íbamos a ir una vez que nos ahorramos dinero y que nunca sucedió ...

6. Tirarse de un paracaídas  ... Sé que esto suena imposible también en este momento

7. Quiere conocer a los propietarios de HotChalk la compañía donde trabaja darles las gracias personalmente

8. Él quiere ir a un concierto de Zac Brown Band .. 

9. Parece y suena loco, pero como usted sabe que él ama el Soccer  y quiere conocer a David Beckham jaja por eso le puso mi hijo David, esto sin duda suena imposible, pero uno que sabe? Los medios y el Facebook son poderosos :)


Una vez más, estas son cosas que no son una "necesidad", pero que lo haría feliz ... Y yo haría cualquier cosa lo que sea necesario para hacerlo feliz ...

Hemos sido muy felices de ver la Respuwsta de #sunsrtsforAndy. Len como lo dije en mi ultimo blog estamos orando por el en cada puesta de sol y toma dl foto con hashtag #sunsetsforAndy, al final del día el se sienta en su sillón reclinable a ver todas sus fotos y cada que volteo a verlo tiene una sonrisa leyendo todos sus comentarios, en este momento les pido que oren por un tiempo sin dolor sea el tiempo que sea que tengamos con el solo pido que sea libre de dolor.

No dude en contactarme a leylamoss@gmail.com

Estaremos siempre agradecidos con la ayuda que sea posible que podamos conseguir, sé que estoy siendo un libro abierto y que necesito un montón de cosas, pero al mismo tiempo sé que somos amados y que las cosas de alguna manera u otra saldrá.
