Thank You So Much El Camino Creek! 12/20/2013
Hi Everyone, Once again, we are at a complete loss of words because they just don’t seem to be enough to express how thankful we are to be surrounded by such a great community. Now that we have completed Travis’ last round of chemotherapy, we know we still have some of this journey left to […]
A Big Christmas Wish Comes True! 12/18/2013
We went down on Tuesday morning and the check-in process went smoothly. Since Travis has been having some slight irritation issues with the incision area of his port, we had to get approval to go ahead and access to be able to do the infusion. There was some hesitation and double checking but the final […]
It’s Game On! 12/9/2013
After Round 5, Travis was scheduled to start his 6th and Final round of chemo tomorrow but when we had his counts checked on Friday, they were low and we rescheduled to try and start on Friday, 12/13 (yes, that is Friday the 13th but we do what we have to do). So, we set […]
Happy Birthday Travis! 11/30/2013
All together now: Happy Birthday to You! Happy Birthday to You! Happy Birthday Dear Travis! Happy Birthday to You! Travis wanted to thank everyone for all of your Birthday wishes in the Guestbook and he wanted to give a big shout out to our extended family at Clarkesville Academy in Tennessee. He has really enjoyed […]
Happy Thanksgiving! 11/28/2013
On this Thanksgiving Day, when we reflect back on the year, we have been blessed in so many ways and we have so much to be thankful for. Even with Travis’ counts climbing back up, we decided that we should play things safe and lay low for the holiday since we are close to Round […]
There’s NO Place Like Home! 11/16/2013
We checked in to the hospital on Tuesday morning and after meeting with the Doctor, they decided to reduce the Vincristine dose from 1.5 down to 1 since Travis is experiencing some nerve numbness in his feet. We are told that this is temporary and should come back after the chemo is complete. Once we […]
Round 5 Mission is a Go! 11/11/2013
Happy Veteran’s Day and THANKS to all who have served our country! We had Travis’s blood counts checked today at the lab and he is OK to begin Round 5 of Chemo starting tomorrow. The ANC has to be above 1000 and we barely cleared the bar at 1005. So, we are going to get […]
It’s Like Déjà Vu! 11/7/2013
It’s like Déjà Vu all over again with Travis’ counts still low so Chemo will not start on Friday. However this time, they are on the way back up so we are hopeful we will be cleared on Monday for a Tuesday start. It may not seem like a big deal to start a few […]
Counts are Still Low so Chemo is a No Go…For Now! 11/5/2013
We had our appointment yesterday to have lab work done and see if Travis’ counts came back up yet. But wouldn’t you know, they actually went down a little further from last Friday. So, no chemo will start today and we will have to check again on Thursday for a possible Friday start. Apparently there […]
Round 5 of Chemo is Delayed! 11/1/2013
Happy Halloween! We are not sure if it is a Trick or a Treat but Travis’ counts were too low yesterday to start Round 5 of chemo today. It is kind of a bummer because once you get all geared up to start and plans in place to cover the weekend, it is a little […]
