“I will be moving heading home to take on a new role in this peanut’s life,” she wrote on Instagram in April 2018. “There isn’t an obstacle I wouldn’t tackle or challenge I wouldn’t face to see you and Meaghan smile.

She’s still figuring out how to be a sister-daughter. We have both made mistakes. A lot of tears have been cried trying to figure out this new norm and I don’t know if we ever will. We were dealt a bad hand but I wouldn’t trade this crazy life for the world.” Myah graduated high school in May 2022, according to an Instagram post.
