It’s only a date on the calendar. It’ll be Christmas when you’re all together. Sending prayers and keeping good thoughts for your son and your family Rael.

Checking in Rael... how's your son doing?? They pushed off his Christmas chemo for a week due to low white cell count. So he starts again Monday. He is upset that all his hair fell out but he feels ok. Just tired. He looks the part of a cancer patient and it bothers him. I will see him this afternoon for a belated Christmas celebration. Thanks for asking.

Ya' know Sprightly, having this forum available to all of us is really cool. I know some here don't believe in the power of prayer, and that's OK. I do, and while God may not always answer my prayers the way I would like, I know He's hearing them.

Yes, motr2, I also like this prayer requests forum. It's great having some where that you can ask for and/or offer prayers without having other posters who do not believe in prayer say nasty things about the posts.

Rael, I’m saying prayers for both our sons. This is truly torturous. The saying “you’re only as happy as your most unhappy child” is true no matter what their age.

How is your son doing Rael? I have lost my post three times now. No real changes. Two rounds of chemo to go.

His last day (God willing) of chemo is today. We should get results three weeks from today to see how well the treatment worked. His siblings are taking him on a cruise in March to celebrate, or if the results aren't as hoped, for him to have some fun before he girds himself for the next round in the battle.

Tomorrow is the day my son gets his test results from the chemo. He said he is going to have a drink in his hand either way. Either celebrating or bracing for the next step which would probably be more surgery. Wish us luck.

I have a bottle of Chevas for which I have been looking for an excuse to open!

Not out of the woods yet. It definitely shrunk but now they don't know if what is left is scar tissue or tumor so they have to due a pet scan Tuesday after injecting him with a type of sugar. If it is a tumor the sugar will be sucked into it where as scar tissue would have no reaction. We will get the results Thursday. If it is a tumor they will operate again and then maybe another round of chemo. Not the best of news but not the worst either. He is definitely frustrated but we will know more on Thursday.

Pretty good news. It didn't react as a tumor but they can't biopsy based on its location. He is the high side of normal for the proteins they are checking. So, it appears good but they are deferring until the May appt before we can feel out of the woods. Kenny is feeling very upbeat and getting stronger every day.
