#TBThursday a year ago, Harper finished her final chemo session againπ. We sang "Harper's Last Chemo" (again), a @UIchildrens tradition, though dad cried more than he sang!. Wonderful support team w Dr Gordon, @IowaWBB, @CaitlinClark22, & @kate_martin22 ! It takes an army! πͺπ

Any time it takes a @B1Gfootball referee 13 sentences throughout 4 paragraphs to rationalize a call that should not be reviewable after the entire officiating crew did not call any penalty, much less throw a black marker on the spot, you know your credibility is shaky at best.
From the officiating crew after the controversial call involving Cooper DeJean in the #Hawkeyes' 12-10 loss:

Five years ago today, Harper wrapped up a pretty tough 6-week stretch of radiation treatments @UIchildrens . She started kindegarten that week & was able to go her first morning in before heading to IC. Tough way to start school but we were fortunate her body responded well!

Disappointed in @NCAA, for 2nd time in 3 days, the @IowaHoops and @IowaWBB host game will overlap their #marchmadness games. Makes it difficult to support both during a neat time for #Hawkeyes. Plenty of PhD's in Indianapolis, not enough common sense w/ their TV partners π€.

Even though 6-year olds hate going to the doctor, Harper enjoys her visits because she knows her @UIDM friends will be there to have fun with her. Thanks ladies!

@DanWolken Better? Dude, Iowa is not guarding them on arc. and WV is shooting 33% FG%! π€¦π€·ββοΈ. Iowa sat in a passive zone and WV struggled to score, meanwhile Iowa rebounded fairly well out of the zone.

There are certain dates that stick out for any parent, June 28 is a tough one for us @NicoleStribe. Two years ago today, Harper was confronted with one of the biggest challenges a 5-year old could face- we are so fortunate things have progressed so well! Thanks @UIchildrens.

@ashleyschable Classy move by @OsbornMitch and Harlan, it seems our families are both battling this cancer together. Dad enjoyed all the big sub-state and state tournament clashes between @CarrollTigerBB and Harlan over the years.

Super proud of @MadelineStribe this fall. She has been busy w/ volleyball and club soccer and, quite frankly, been a VERY independent young lady w/o Mom/Dad around as much as we would like. We are proud of you Madeline! Looking forward to your State Cup soccer weekend πͺ

I also wanted to give a special shoutout to Harper and the Stribe family, as they will always have a special place in my heart. I met Harper at the Ronald McDonald House Charities in Iowa City during my time at Iowa. She was a warrior back then, and continues be today! π
