Just in case you missed it! The most priceless, special gift I have ever received. This is a masterpiece and will serve as motivation to get me through my toughest days. Forever grateful for the @Royals and @kcroyalstv! #SarahsSoldiers #FightLikeAGirl #StrongerTogether

An afternoon with family and football is hard to beat. Having the ability to sit around the table & talk with them is something I never thought I would treasure as much as I do. ALS teaches you to never take a moment, a conversation or the simplest of abilities for granted. #ALS

Buh bye Dodgers!!!!!! 👋👋👋👋

Just over here crying my eyes out! 🥺 Life is far too short. You have one chance to live it and no one did it quite like Rowdy. His legacy will forever live on.

Buh bye Yankees!!!! 👋👋👋

Alright @PatMcAfeeShow hear me out, you give away millions on college game days. Let a Saints fan kick for Team Gleason tonight. Join us in the fight against #ALS!

Eight years ago, I held this precious little baby boy in my arms for the very first time. My first grandson. I was so overcome with emotion that I cried tears of pure joy. But underneath those happy tears was a fear I didn’t know how to put into words. I was already living with ALS, and I had so many questions about the future. Would he remember me? Would I be here to watch him grow up? Would ALS take away my ability to build the kind of bond I dreamed of having with him? Eight years later, I look at these pictures and my heart is so full. That tiny baby boy is now eight years old. I’ve had the absolute privilege of watching him grow, cheering him on, celebrating his accomplishments, and most importantly, building a bond with him that ALS could never take away. I may never know what the future holds, but I know this: I’ve been here. I’ve gotten to watch him grow, and he has given me some of the greatest moments of my life. Today, we celebrated his 8th birthday together. And if you look closely at these two pictures, I think our smiles tell you everything you need to know. #MyGrandson #ThisIs8 #MyWhy #ALS #FightLikeAGirl

Happy 8th birthday to the sweetest little man I am so incredibly blessed to call my grandson! It has been one of the greatest joys of my life to be here to watch you grow into the amazing boy you are today. You are one heck of an athlete, and I couldn’t be more proud of all you accomplish—but what makes me the proudest is the kind, compassionate heart you have. The way you care about others, love so deeply, and make the people around you feel special is what makes you truly one of a kind. Bennett, I hope you always know just how incredibly proud I am to be your Grandma. Watching you grow is a gift I never take for granted. I can’t wait to celebrate YOU! Happy 8th birthday, buddy! I love you more than you’ll ever know! 💙🎂🎉

No, I have NOT come to terms with the season being over for my Royals. But I can say that, for the first time in a long time, after the final home game of season, I didn’t leave the stadium with tears in my eyes. Instead, I got to say so many “see you laters” to the incredible people throughout the Royals organization who have lifted me up, loved me, and supported me beyond my wildest dreams. This place, this team, and these people have given me so many moments to cherish—and baseball has once again given me a beautiful escape from ALS, one inning at a time. So while I’m already missing my happy place, I’m choosing to hold onto the memories, the friendships, and the excitement for what’s ahead for our boys in blue. See you next year! 👑 #ALS #FightLikeAGirl #SarahsSoldiers #ForeverRoyal

“Get busy living, or get busy dying.” I could easily fall into the latter after facing a 100% terminal diagnosis for more than 8 years. But that’s not how I choose to live. So, let me give you the weekly recap… 🏌️‍♀️ Monday: The 9th Annual Sarah’s Soldiers Golf Tournament ⚾️ Tuesday: A very special suite experience at the K 💙 Friday: Our last Friday date night at the K for the season ⚾️ Sunday: The final Royals game of the season, followed by so many heartfelt “see you laters.” And tomorrow, we’ll be right back at the ball fields cheering on our oldest grandson. ALS has taken a lot from me, but it will never take my desire to LIVE and show up for my people. Life is short. Don’t wait for the perfect moments. Live it while you have the chance. Stay tuned for pictures! Blessed beyond belief! #ALS #FightLikeAGirl #SarahsSoldiers

“Sarah, you are so strong.” Thank you! I get it from my momma—and today is her birthday! Mom, my love and admiration for you are endless. Thank you for loving me unconditionally, standing beside me through every chapter of life, and always being there when I need you. This isn’t the life either one of us ever envisioned, but you taught me from a young age to always look for the positives, even in the hardest circumstances. You taught me that there is always something to be grateful for, and I carry that lesson with me every single day. If there is one unexpected gift ALS has given us, it’s that it has brought us closer than ever before. Through the hardest days, I’ve gotten to experience a depth of love and connection with you that I will forever cherish. Happy birthday to the woman who gave me so much more than life—you gave me the strength to live it with gratitude, faith, and a whole lot of fight. I love you more than words could ever express. Forever and ever! #HappyBirthday #ALS #FightLikeAGirl

I can’t let this birthday come to a close without acknowledging all of the love, messages, and well wishes I received today. I wish I had the ability to respond to each of you personally, but your girl is tired. 😂 38 feels GREAT. It feels like a gift. A milestone. And a beautiful reminder that simply being here is something worth celebrating. I’m incredibly blessed to be surrounded by so much love and to have lived another year filled with moments, memories, and people who make this life so meaningful. I had an incredible birthday surrounded by so many of the people who mean the most to me, and my heart is truly full. Here’s to 38 and everything this next chapter has in store. I’m ready for it. One day at a time, one moment at a time, and with a whole lot of gratitude. Going to bed with a happy heart full of love. Much love. 🫶🏼

It’s a celebration!! 🥳 38 years young today—and feeling GREAT!! An age that may feel ordinary to most, but to me, 38 feels monumental. It’s a number I’m incredibly grateful to see. I don’t take this birthday—or this life—for granted. Every year, every moment, every laugh, every memory, and every day I get to love the people who mean the most to me is a gift I once wasn’t sure I’d have so many years after receiving my ALS diagnosis. So today, I’m not just celebrating another year older. I’m celebrating another year of LIFE. And what a beautiful life it is. Here’s to 38—and to making every moment count. #BirthdayGirl #ALS #FightLikeAGirl 💪

I mean it’s birthday eve, of course I had cookie cake for dinner. Tomorrow, I might just go crazy and have it for breakfast and dinner!! #YOLO

Dancin’ in the rain my way! Sometimes you just have to let your inner child out and I hadn’t done this since I was a kid! Just forget the rules, embrace the moment, and LIVE! Ya, it felt pretty great and I was a little bit dizzy too!! 😂 #ALS #FightLikeAGirl #dancingintherain☔️

Shining in a world I once feared I wouldn’t be able to survive—and thriving in it anyway. ✨#ShineYourLight #ALS #FightLikeAGirl #Thriving

I know you guys are dying to know…Yup, I had cookie cake for dinner again tonight. It is a party up in here!

Another night out doing what I love most. Watching baseball and supporting one of the boys who stole my heart first, my oldest nephew. #BaseballIsLife #ALS #FightLikeAGirl

When you have been living with ALS for over 8 years and your birthday is only 4 days away, it’s perfectly acceptable to eat cookie cake for dinner. Right? Don’t worry there was plenty of icing on top! 🎂 #ALS #FightLikeAGirl

ELATED!!! The Player’s Weekend auction ended last night, and I couldn’t be more grateful. The three items Bobby Witt Jr. graciously wore AND donated to the auction raised over $11,000 for Sarah’s Soldiers! These funds will allow us to help provide much needed hope and support to Midwest families facing an ALS diagnosis. Bobby, thank you for continuing to support our mission, using your platform to bring awareness to ALS, and help us make a difference. We are so incredibly grateful! #SarahsSoldiers #FightLikeAGirl #ALS
