16 January 2013
Katelyn and Brooke Wilcox
About the middle of January, Cherie's oncologist let her know that the treatments were no longer working and that she should go on hospice. We were shocked! Kari called Katelyn and asked her to come home from Utah Valley University, they needed to talk. Katelyn immediately knew the worst was happening. She caught the train, to Bountiful, ran all the way up the hill from the station in Woods Cross in the cold and snow and rushed to her mother's side. It was decided that she would drop out of UVU to be home with Cherie and help all she could, but Cherie said she still wanted Katelyn to go on a mission as it is something she always wanted to do and they both knew it was what Heavenly Father wanted her to do. Katelyn's call came on the 16th of January 2013.
Katelyn had all her family and friends come to the house to watch her open her call and find out where she would be serving. Such excitement, anticipation and joy. Cherie was able to be there to see her open her call and she was thrilled for Katelyn.
Katelyn started crying even before she opened her call.
