Time to Flee After Round 3! 9/3/2013
Travis had a great second week of school and it is amazing to see him working so diligently on his school work so that he does not have to worry about falling behind while he is out. Mrs. Mills is great about preparing weekly assignments for the kids so Travis knows what he has to […]
First Week of School in the Books! 8/26/2013
First Week of School in the Books…Travis finished the first week of school with his friends and teacher, Mrs. Mills, as a big 5th Grader. Even though he had to miss the first day of school, he jumped right in there and got to work on Monday night. Mrs. Mills is so great and Travis […]
Counts are Good! 8/20/2013
With Travis’ counts still low as of last Thursday, he was pretty disappointed that he was not be able to go to our soccer team’s beach get-together on Friday evening nor was he able to go to the games of our tournament over the weekend. The boys missed having him there too and Christian’s mom, […]
Counts Still Low! 8/15/2013
We had Travis’ blood work checked today and his ANC (white blood cells) and Platelets (blood clotting) were still low which means another weekend in quarantine. He was pretty bummed since he wanted to go to soccer practice to see the boys and was really looking forward to going to our soccer tournament this weekend. […]
Getting Through Round 2! 8/12/2013
Sorry! It has been an interesting and educational couple of weeks since our last update and we are just getting around to catching up. We started Round 2 of chemotherapy on Friday, 8/2, and went straight to our room since all of the paperwork and labs had been completed on Thursday. Travis was feeling pretty […]
Why Do We Walk? 7/29/2013
Wow!!! It is impossible to know how or where to begin to describe what just happened this weekend. Our thoughts and emotions are all over the place which makes it hard to put our experience into words, not to mention the tears in our eyes make it hard to see the keyboard and screen. But, […]
American Cancer Society’s “Relay for Life”! 7/21/2013
As we mentioned back in early May, our Faith and Works group has arranged for all of us to participate in the American Cancer Society’s “Relay for Life” in Carlsbad. The idea is that we will participate in a 24 hour relay where our team will have someone, or multiple people, walking on the track […]
Counts are Good! 7/20/2013
Travis had his blood work done yesterday and they confirmed that his counts are good. So, after two weeks of “quarantine” and laying low, he can go out again. Yeah! Although it has taken almost two weeks and he still has some stomach discomfort, we have a couple more weeks before we start round 2. […]
Travis is Home! 7/9/201
We brought Travis home last night and Cisco was happy to see him! He had a bit of a rough afternoon at the hospital with the nausea and a sore jaw. We are doing the best we can to keep the nausea under control as the chemo flushes out of his system. The sore jaw […]
