On Tuesday October 11, 2011 Leanne (Chin) was diagnosed with breast cancer. This blog will follow her journey. It will share the peaks and valleys along the way. But it will also serve as a way to communicate prayer requests and praises. Join us as we partner with Chin and fight along side her for she "...can do all things through Christ who strengthens her." Phil. 4:13

The meaning behind Chin ... There is a Chinese restaurant in the Twin Cities named Leann Chin. While Leanne was attending a basketball camp in middle school, a fellow camper had a bag from the restaurant. This camper made the connection between the name of the restaurant and Leanne's name. And the nickname Chin stuck!

Round 2: #5

Today is Thursday and you know what that means, it is chemo day. Leanne had her 5th post pregnancy chemo treatment today. It was extra short because they only had to do one type of chemo and extra special because of the visitors!

Fran went to chemo with Leanne while Grandma Miller stayed with Leo! Deb has been in Eden Prairie helping Leanne, Ryan, & Leo out for the past few days and they are soooooooooo thankful she is there. I am sure she enjoyed her afternoon with Leo :)

This guy visited Leanne at chemo today and brought some shamrock shakes with him! Thanks Dad!


Leanne also spent some time face timing with Tim.


 Leanne has an appointment with her oncologist next Thursday before chemo. They will reevaluate the treatment plan and decide where to go from there. There is a lot up in the air right now and Leanne and Ryan need your prayers.
  • Pray that Leanne's white blood cell counts stay in the high range so she can still have chemo
  • Pray for wisdom for the doctor's as they make treatment decisions
  • Pray for patience for Leanne & Ryan as they continue on in this journey
  • Pray for peace and contentment for Leanne & Ryan
  • Pray that Leanne would have the strength to fight the mental battle that comes along with cancer
  • Pray for Leo to start sleeping longer at night :)

Original Leo,

I think that a scarf or two would look great with your hat!!! Three squeezes for the Millers- one for you, one for Ryno, and one for Little Leo! It won't be long before the Twins will be back...since you and I were already taken, Joe Mauer had to find someone else!
