Here is an update from my sister and a few pictures. Please note the smile on both boys' faces & the fact that Caden's hair is growing back nicely! This was a good way for me to start my day.
"Well we made it!!! We are home and it feels so good! Caden was so excited to be back in the home he knows. The boys had space to play and run around. It was like Christmas with all the stuff they had not seen for almost 8 months. Caden had his line removed a week ago and he got the all clear to swim from the doctor today. So we will be taking a trip to the pool either Friday or Saturday. He has not been able to have water on his chest for over 7 months so oddly this should be a treat for him. My mom was able to come up for a week with me to help get readjusted, but sadly she will be leaving Sunday. :( It will be strange not having her around! Babysitter's are expensive! Hahaha...just kidding Mom! He had labs done today and his counts are not coming up as fast as I hoped. All in good time. He should be ready to go back into childcare in 3 weeks. That means I can get back to work and I am actually happy about that! Life is good, God is good, and my baby is in remission and getting stronger every day! We have gone to the park, done some shopping, and we went to Clunie Lake on Fort Richardson today. We still can't do too much. Caden's immune system is still suppressed, so we do lots of hand washing and Purell!!!! We made it back in time for Cameron to start 2nd grade with all of his friends! He is doing very well. He is in the advanced reading group and that is good confirmation that he did not skip a beat! My life has been full of blessings and I am very thankful! Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers! We hope you will continue them. If he is able to make it 5 years in remission then his odds are much better. So hopefully we will not be forgotten. Love and Appreciation Always, Schelly, Cameron and Caden"
My personal thanks to all of you who took the time to pray and send your well wishes. Please keep them coming.
