That's Ava in the wagon...glad we brought it. She tapped out early...lol You can't see the back of our shirts very good, but they say..."I'd walk to heaven and back, to see her face again" They dedicated the walk to her....very emotional day. Proudly wearing her favorite color. Team Bella Rose!

That's a beautiful thing. I'm sure it meant the world to you.

Every year we walk with the MDA to help raise money. This year we walked her Bellas memory. That's out new puppy Biscuit. He has brought some much needed joy to our lives.

Geez...I can't spell today...lol

Looks like a fun day.

Yea Buscuit!! Puppy dogs can be so healing. I'm so glad you got him Lisa!!

03/17/12 @ 12:54 pm by Sally Hackney

A dog makes everything a little more bearable, I know mine do. I haven't been on Fantourage very much in the past few months and missed your story, so sad for you, but happy you are able to use your experience to help others

03/15/12 @ 9:08 pm by Sandys Sweets

Fit as a fiddle here; welcome back! You have had a harrowing time, I knew we would see you back, you have too many friends here that you can't ignore

03/15/12 @ 10:55 pm by kerry

Thanks guys...it has been very difficult. My sweet little Ava is having a hard time understanding. But we are staying strong and putting one foot in front of the other. Still trying to find our new "normal" Your whole life can change in just a blink of an eye. I take nothing for granted.

03/15/12 @ 11:28 pm by acakecometrue

You are right, everyone needs to take time to deal with their tragedy it is a comfort to know you have a backstop somewhere and hopefully you feel we are that force.

03/15/12 @ 11:55 pm by kerry

We're always here for you!!

03/16/12 @ 5:57 am by cakeswithcharacter

Too true.

03/17/12 @ 12:32 am by kerry

Thank you guys. I know I have my cake family here and I am so grateful. I missed you guys. Your encouraging words and your friendships make it that much easier for me. Love you all so much. Thank you all for being there for me.

Isabella Rose is a hero...she donated her kidneys and her liver to 3 families. 3 families who don't have to suffer anymore. We donated her chair that we fought so hard for...to a little boy named Manny who now can feel the freedom and independence she felt when she received it. She lives on in others....So proud to have been chosen to be her mommy.

Thanks for sharing this! Amazing little girl!!

03/16/12 @ 5:55 am by cakeswithcharacter

And what a wonderful mommy she has. How awe-inspiring!!

03/16/12 @ 8:49 am by Sally Hackney

You are a very warm and generous person. You and your husband took a very emotional moment in your life and turned it into a gift of life. Bella is a hero as are you and your husband. Bless all of you.

03/16/12 @ 9:50 am by redtiaraprincess

Lisa that is amazing that Bella saved those lives, she will be smiling down from heaven for sure! What an amzingly inspiring story, god bless you all!

03/16/12 @ 2:34 pm by Justin Lynch

Lisa, I love that! How comforting it is to know that she lives on through others! Thank you for sharing that with us.

03/16/12 @ 4:16 pm by hautestuff

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. My comment was cut off when I was explaining what happened to Bella. When I got to the bus 5 minutes after the phone call...nobody had called 911 and nobody was performing CPR. The bus driver tried calling dispatch and then called her supervisor. They clearly were not trained to deal with an emergency situation. They didn't try to save her. When we got to the hospital, they said she went 30-40 minutes without air. They pronounced her brain dead the next morning. Onc

The is a huge law suit brewing. I will not allow this to happen to another family. They didn't have a defibrillator, and air bag, or oxygen on that bus. There staff is clearly not trained and their procedure sucks. My fight does not end with her life. We had word from our lawyer yesterday and was told that there was video on the bus, so we have the truth of what exactly happened. I have no plans to watch it, but am very anxious to get some answers. In for a very big fight.

03/15/12 @ 11:40 pm by acakecometrue

I applaud you for going forward, the people who take care of our children need to be trained in the procedures to could save a life. praying your efforts go well for you.

03/16/12 @ 12:32 am by Sandys Sweets

Thanks for taking up this much needed fight. Keep the faith and know that any life you can save any family you can spare will be well worth it! You and your family are in our thoughts!!

03/16/12 @ 5:57 am by cakeswithcharacter

Stand tough and strong....she was obviously sent to you for a reason and you are following thru. Good for you Lisa.

We had the most beautiful service for her. It was amazing to see how many people loved her. There was 300 people there. Everyone wearing her favorite color...pink. At the end of the service, we all released pink balloons for her to catch in heaven.

Good Morning Lisa, what a beautiful way to end a service.

02/08/12 @ 9:23 am by redtiaraprincess

Wow...300 people. That's so amazing. So very many who loved her.

Hello cake fam...I wanted to thank everyone and especially you Kerry, for your love and support through this very difficult time. I'm sure you all are wondering what happened, so I just wanted to shed some light on the incident. As you all know, Bella was a very weak little girl. While on the school bus home on the 25th, I received a call from the bus aid saying that Bella was having trouble breathing. I was one minute away. When I got there, she was still in her wheelchair and she was already out and blue. CP

Lisa...this was just so awful. I can't even begin to imagine what you've been through. My sister lost her daughter a few years back and I watched her struggle for many months. I know you are being so brave and strong and I admire you so much. I'm glad you checked in with us. I've been so worried about you. Take care and stay strong and know there are so many who care.

02/08/12 @ 9:30 am by Sally Hackney

I hope you are all keeping as well as possible Lisa! It must be incredibly hard for you! We are always here of you need to chat!

02/08/12 @ 10:48 am by Justin Lynch

Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family - big hugs to you -

02/08/12 @ 11:48 am by kaat

Thank you all so much for you love and support. This was so sudden and unexpected and although our hearts are so broken...knowing you all care so much makes my heart smile. We are surrounded by so many loved one, friends and family. from California to New York...but I know it will be when everyone is gone that I will really feel the hole in my heart.

Lisa...you are right. The days ahead are going to be tough. It's the love of family and friends that will get you thru. It appears you have so many that love you and truly care about you. Come here as often as you need to ....because we will all always be here for you. Love and prayers.

Our Fantourage family is very saddened to hear of Bella's passing, it is so unfair, so young never having a chance to her life's full potential, cared for by a doting and loving Mother. We grieve for her courageous Mother who did everything she possibly could. We are here when you need us. You have many heartfelt friends here. Please accept my sincere condolences and an enveloping hug.

It must be devastating for Lisa, I feel so much for her and her family!

01/28/12 @ 4:14 am by Justin Lynch

My heartfelt prayers go out to Lisa and her family! She was such a strong Momma bear fighting every step of the way for Bella! Heaven has a new little angel.

01/28/12 @ 7:30 am by cakeswithcharacter

Well said Kerry. Lisa...we could always tell when you posted how much you did to make Bella's world normal and happy. You are a shining example of love and faith and we all admire you more than you will ever know!

01/28/12 @ 8:52 am by Sally Hackney

Thank you so much Kerry....you're words are comforting.

01/28/12 @ 9:53 am by acakecometrue

It seems we have lost quite a few friends recently all ages, doesn't make it any easier, we will keep Bella, Gary, and Gayle in our thoughts.

01/28/12 @ 3:21 pm by kerry

Im with you Kerry..its hard..

01/28/12 @ 3:50 pm by Edna De la Cruz

There is no greater sadness than the loss of a child. Hang on to the thought that there is no greater gift than the gift of a child even for a short time. Hold on to that little heart in yours forever xoxoxoxox

Good Morning cake family. I haven't been on in quite some time, I know...but I just wanted to tell everyone that yesterday at 10:00 am my Bella Rose was sent to heaven. I am numb and the pain in my heart is so severe. Thank you all for always being there for us.

I am so sorry to hear about Bella. I will pray for you and your family.

01/27/12 @ 9:08 am by redtiaraprincess

Oh precious girl....I am so very very sorry. If there is anything I can do please let me know. I can't even imagine your pain. Please know we all will be praying for you and your family.

01/27/12 @ 9:40 am by Sally Hackney

Lisa, I am so sorry to hear this news! Heaven has just received another precious angel; and may you try to rest knowing that she will be with you every moment of the day, watching over you and your family! Any time you need to talk you always have your Fantourage family here! x

01/27/12 @ 10:31 am by Justin Lynch

I'm so sorry to hear this. May all our thoughts and prayers offer a small bit of comfort. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss.

Oh Lisa...my heart is breaking with yours. There just are no words...I am so, so very sorry for your loss. I will be praying a lot for you and for your family. Bella Rose is dancing with Jesus and the angels for sure, but I can only imagine how you are hurting. We're here for you.

01/27/12 @ 6:38 pm by hautestuff

Lisa, I join your friends in expressing my hearfelt condolences, so sad, you must be devastated.

01/28/12 @ 7:33 am by cakeswithcharacter

Our dearest Lisa...words cannot express how I wish I was much closer to where you are. It takes one AMAZING MOM like yourself to raise, care, and bring a special child like Bella, into this world! I send many blessings your way and pray you find comfort knowing Bella will be with you now, wherever you may go...always in your heart and always watching over you like you watched over her. Heaven is a much beautiful place today because you shared your Bella Rose with them. I love my friend and send a big hug your way

01/28/12 @ 8:06 am by kakesbykaren

Thank you all so much for all your support. I means more than words can express. We are dealing with it one minute at a time.

01/28/12 @ 9:48 am by acakecometrue

And, that is the wayb it should be just coping day to day, you were so invested in making her life comfortable so much concern and tireless work that I am sure it has left a huge hole, the emptiness of nothing to do and Bella no longer with you. Parents most difficult thing to face is losing a child.

Good day cake fam! Has anyone heard about the next casting call for Challenge?

I think they work hard for a bit and they had plenty of them filmed for now.

12/29/11 @ 5:45 pm by Edna De la Cruz

I thought they were cancelling it??

12/29/11 @ 6:11 pm by cakeswithcharacter

canceling the show, or cancelling open casting calls? Either way would be a bummer.
