Praying for Mason Teague “Meaning in the Mess”

05/24/2026

I’ve been trying to find the words to explain what last weekend meant to us, and honestly, I still don’t know if words are enough.🥹

Mason’s graduation did not look the way we once imagined it would. Truthfully, there were moments over the last several weeks where it felt like yet another reminder that things are rarely easy for our family. I wanted every detail to be perfect. There were things I had planned that didn’t happen, things I wish could have been different, and that’s okay.😌

Because somehow, in the middle of all of it, God still made something beautiful out of something hurtful.

Instead of a traditional ceremony that ultimately did not feel meaningful or emotionally safe for Mason, we chose to create something that did. Something that celebrated HIM instead of simply checking a box. And seeing Mason up on the bridge at the park surrounded by his friends meant absolutely EVERYTHING to him and to us.

That moment alone was worth every ounce of stress, exhaustion, scrambling, and divide-and-conquer planning that these last couple of weeks demanded. Especially while I’m still trying to recover from knee surgery myself. 😂

Without our people, none of this would have happened. Truly.

The amount of family, friends, and community members who showed up for Mason was overwhelming in the best possible way. I do not think I will ever fully process what it meant to finally hug the necks of people who have been praying for and following Mason’s journey for nearly four years now. So many of you have carried us through some of the darkest moments of our lives, and getting to see your faces in person meant more to this momma’s heart than I can properly explain.

I keep saying I want to find a better way to share all of this. The good, the bad, the ugly, and all the little moments in between that somehow become the big moments. One or two posts here and there never seem to fully capture it all.

But this… this was all good.

We were able to take another hard and disappointing situation and turn it into something meaningful. Something joyful. It turned out better than I could have hoped for!🥰🥰🥰

Glory to God for always finding a way to lead us down a path that matters, even when it looks different than the one we originally planned. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I will be working on our “personal reveal” of Mason’s Make-a-wish over the next couple of days. We have taken the last week to try and fully grasp what a truly blessed “wish” this was. ☦️☦️☦️

Thank you to everyone that took the time out of their busy schedules to show up for Mason! He told me that night(his last one as a teenager) as I was kissing him good night ”That was actually fun!” ☺️
And, THAT said it all!🤍🤍🤍

After a lot of thought, prayer, conversation, and honesty, Mason has decided that he will not be attending the traditional graduation ceremony.

Truthfully, when we sat down and explained to him exactly what graduation would look like for him specifically, it no longer felt like a celebration to him. It felt isolating. It felt uncomfortable. And most importantly, it did not feel like something that honored everything he has fought through to reach this moment.

As his parents, we refuse to allow something that should be meaningful and joyful to become another painful reminder of all that has been lost. Feeling seen matters. Feeling included matters. And Mason deserves a graduation experience that leaves him feeling celebrated, not singled out.❤️‍🩹

So instead of forcing him into an experience, that was not going to be enjoyable for him AT ALL! We have decided to do what we have always tried to do throughout this journey…make something beautiful out of something hard.🥰

In Mason’s own words:
“God is in the business of making something good out of the bad, Mom.”🤍

And honestly, he’s right.🙏🏽

So on Friday, May 15th at 6:00 PM, we will be celebrating Mason our own way with a very short ceremonial graduation walk across the bridge at Skiatook Central Park.
Justin and I will present Mason with his diploma from “The School of Hard Knocks”😂, and then our not-so-little boy will get to throw his graduation cap as high as he wants to.🎓🎓🎓

It may only last 10 to 15 minutes, but it will be filled with love, dignity, joy, and people who truly see him.

If you would like to come support Mason, please do. I think it would mean a lot for him to physically see how many people still have his back after everything he has endured these past almost four years.

For those who cannot make it, we will either livestream it or share pictures and videos afterward.🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

And then the following day, May 16th, our graduate turns 20 years old AND his Make-a-Wish reveal! So between graduation and his birthday, and his CHAPEL we have plenty to celebrate.

Glory to God for all things.🙏🏽☦️🎓🤍

Mason has asked me to share a post on his behalf, as he is currently off Facebook to ensure that the big Make-a-Wish reveal isn’t spoiled.

From Mason:

“Sooo I think I’m gonna get fully recovered when this prayer chapel from make a wish is built so I’m gonna need yall to pray for me”

We believe that all things are possible with God through our Lord, Jesus Christ. But we also trust in His Divine Will for Mason. This has been incredibly hard for me to share, as I want this so badly for him. Please pray for our boy. 🙏 ☦️

Mase hanging out with Archie before he headed into DEFY Neuro Rehabilitation today! This boy has kept us on our toes since he was born and has continued that trend with no end in sight! 😂🙏🏽🤍

I’ve been trying to find the right words to share an update on Mason’s Make A Wish, and I’m not sure they even exist for something like this.
The amount of support from the Skiatook and Sperry community has been unlike anything I have ever witnessed. What started as Mason’s wish has turned into something so much bigger than just a project. We have not only “met” people in our small community, we have been given the gift of real connection. The kind that feels lasting.

People have given their time, their resources, their skills, and their hearts. Every piece of this is being built through generosity. Every board, every hour, every effort is a reflection of something far greater than us. 🤍🤍🤍

You will know a tree by its fruits is something we hear often. But living it is different. Since Mason’s rupture, I have seen over and over again that God reveals Himself through people who are willing to be used for good. And this…this is one of the clearest examples I’ve ever experienced.

I never could have imagined that my 19 year old’s wish would be a dedicated Holy space. A place set apart for prayer. And yet, here we are.

I don’t always feel worthy of being his mom. If I’m honest, most days I don’t. But God chose me anyway. And I pray every single day that I show up in the way I am being called to. Not perfectly, just faithfully.

And for those wondering why I’ve been a little quiet about it…

Mason is officially blocked from Facebook. With his full permission, of course. We deleted the app and he can’t reinstall it without the passcode. Which means I can finally share pieces of this without ruining the surprise.

That alone feels like a little “wink” from God. 🙏🏽
This whole thing is Him! ☦️☦️☦️

In an ironic twist, today happens to be 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍
