Team Mason
We are raising donations in memory of our superhero, Mason Carter.
Mason was such a silly, fun, smart and creative child. He loved music, tae kwon do, riding his golf cart, going to the pool, jumping on the couch, playing with his friends, and trips to the beach and the lake. He had the best time just being at home and cutting loose with us. We would turn the lights off, break out the glow sticks, crank up the music and dance until we all gave out.
Mason was positive, and if something bad happened he would find the good in it, always pointing out that it could be worse. He kept this wonderful attitude even during the 10-months he was sick and battling his disease, medulloblastoma. He was resilient and bounced back from many hard things, always giving us that perfect smile when it was over. He made us so proud, day after day.
Mason gave us the best years of our lives. We feel blessed and thank God that we were able to borrow His angel for 7-years.
There’s a special scripture that sat on the bedside table in our apartment at St. Jude which brought us much comfort during Mason's treatment. Isaiah 43:2 reads “When you pass through the waters I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.”
Life without Mason is hard. But we are all stronger than we know. Our God is bigger than we’ve seen. This hill isn’t as unending as it seems right now. Just keep going and going. Until we leave fear and trouble in the dust.
Here’s the secret: like our superhero Mason, we’re not quitters….we’re climbers.
Thank you for climbing with us With love, Jamie & Richard Moore
