Today was our sons first day of chemotherapy. We are scared but finally happy that he can get the treatment he needs to live. All I could keep thinking about was that limp that he had and that the foot doctors were telling us that he would be fine. Months later and one day he cannot walk at all. I feel so hopeless in so many ways. I should have caught this disease sooner.
Neuroblastoma, is more common than most other cancers especially in children accept that it's usually early diagnosed in the infant and toddler stages. Our hope now is that Nick's chances at survival are greater than the 40 percent I keep reading on the web. I try to block out the pain and think one day at a time. I know soon God will lead the way to rest and recovery and a vacation which is way overdue. I want to thank everyone that has offered support and time. It takes a lot to commit to something this large in magnitude but with our support team we can beat this.
