How is our princess 17 already? I don’t have a lot of words to describe how lucky we feel to be her parents. We count our blessings everyday when we see this face. She’s spunky, hilarious, stubborn, caring, sweet, affectionate and all things perfection. God knew what he was doing when he made you our daughter. Happy Birthday Kelsey Kling 💘 #freckledfacewarrior #seizingkelsey
SELF ISOLATION: Kelsey Edition. How many of you have pools? How many of you are thanking your lucky stars that you have a pool more than ever right now? 🙋🏻♀️ Kelsey and Landon will hangout in this thing all day long, praise god. 🙌🏼 #quarentinedwithkids #ineedacocktail #orthree #freckledfacewarrior #seizingkelsey
Kelsey wants YOU to stay home. How has everyone been handling this quarantine life? Kelsey has been taking lots of naps with her pups and eating the house dry lol. She also finds joy in swimming with her brother and Dad. Hope you guys are staying home and staying safe. Sending love to all of you during this hard time. #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior #covid #stayhome
If you aren’t staying home for yourself, stay home for the people with comprised immune systems like our girl Kelsey. A time like this is hard for us. As a family who relies on routine (doctors,therapists, nurses, treatments,physical therapy, etc..) it has been very difficult to keep on track. Because of COVID-19 We have had to make tough decisions regarding Kelsey’s care: keeping distance from our regular nurses, teachers and PT. This is a tough time for everyone with unemployment and health scares. At a time of financial crisis and pure panic regarding health, we have to take it day by day but our main priority was and always will be Our kids health. They started saying “Safer At Home.” They’re not wrong, this is the only way we can flatten the curve, and like we said earlier: if you’re not doing it for yourself... do it for the already compromised. #staysafe #covid_19 #freckledfacewarrior #seizingkelsey #undiagnosed
When I tell you Molly doesn’t leave Kelsey’s side, I’m not lying. This dog is unbelievable, we are so thankful her kind and loving soul graced our family. Kelsey has been sick the past couple days so Molly hasn’t left her side a little extra this week. Don’t worry, No corona here ⚔️ stay safe out there friends! #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
We don’t deserve animals 😭 Everyday, even if it’s a day where she doesn’t feel like saying anything all day, Kelsey will ALWAYS say, “Where’s Molly? MOLLY!!!” And as soon as she does this dog comes running and lands gracefully on top of her. Every single nap, after a seizure, when she watches TV and especially when Kelsey eats- Molly is never far away from her girl. This dynamic duo captures my heart on a daily basis. #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
Would you open your mouth if you had to take 10+ medicines a day? I know I wouldn’t. This chick is usually pretty patient with us but this morning she wanted us to leave her the heck alone. Her Mimi and her cousin Jessica tried for 10 minutes. She gives us a run for our money but we wouldn’t have it any other way. #freckledfacewarrior #seizingkelsey
Hi sweet friends! Sorry for being a little inactive on social media. Life gets crazy and sometimes I can’t seem to find the time to get on here and update everyone. I’m going to try to be better about it. This Friday, Kelsey has another stem cell treatment. This one is special because someone we loved very much and who is now our angel in heaven helped us pay for this treatment. We want to thank everyone who donates to The Kelsey Kling Foundation because if it weren’t for you, this wouldn’t be possible. Stem cells help Kelsey so much. After a treatment we can see her being much more alert and engaging with us so much more. You- our earth angels, make this possible and there are no words to truly express our gratitude. For our prayer warriors- we ask that you put in a special prayer for this girl, that the treatment goes well and that her body receives them all flawlessly. We love you all, thank you for the constant love and encouragement. #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
ALWAYS. TRYING. SOMETHING. NEW.
If it’s not a new neuro doctor it’s a nutritionist, if it’s not physical therapy it’s reiki... the list goes on because we will never stop fighting for progress. This is a message to anyone out there struggling, KEEP GOING. There’s a miracle out there somewhere, use every day to fight through the pain, discomfort and fear of whatever you might be going through to find the hope that one day you will be okay. With Kelsey we see waves of success but also have seen plenty of waves of decline as well. We take everyday day by day, live in the present, appreciate the good things and HOPE that we get answers. It’s all about faith my friends. #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
Thank goodness for the weekends when we can decompress with family and friends. Kels is doing good! She’s as happy as ever and always keeps us on our toes. In the morning she gets herself to the edge of the bed and points to the kitchen and says “over there!!!” She really just wants to be independent and move on her own. One day at a time babygirl, we will get there! #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
Happy Birthday to the most caring, protective and dedicated mom in the world. This woman right here would go to end of the earth for her children. In Priscilla’s eyes, her kids hung the moon and the stars and she had made it a mission to dedicate her entire life to make sure they are happy and healthy. She loves hard, she puts everyone before herself and her heart is made of pure gold. We love this woman and everything she does for her family. Happy birthday Priscilla ❤️ #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
Happy Birthday to the #1 dad in the world. This is a man who does everything for his family. Him and Kelsey have always been like this 🤞🏼 since day one. You should see her face light up when he walks in the door every night after work, her eyes get big and she smiles so big. He has a heart of gold and he loves our babies with everything in him and more. He is an amazing father who deserves the world. Happy Birthday Ammon ❤️ #seizingkelsey #freckledfacewarrior
