5 Years Out

Sarah, Charity, Krista, Anne <3
They've been part of our team since Month 2 (May 2014).

5-years off treatment check-up in Vic today. Postponed from June because the Dr. was sick. Sure is nice to delay an oncology appointment by 3 months with no worries. The ladies spent a long time marvelling at how tall and grown up he is. We are Ever. So. Grateful. Even JUST ONE kid with cancer is TOO MANY kids with cancer.

June 11th was officially 5 years off-chemo!
I can think of no better way to celebrate F. I. V. E. years off chemo than the day we had today. We had a surprise visit from friends who we met along the way - knowing their boy is no longer with them earthside makes our gratitude ever so much deeper. W fam - we love you and we miss your boy and we think of him often. JZ spent the day with his ball team and their families - pool party, wiffle ball game, man-tracker game, and just sharing space together. We are ever so grateful to have reached this really significant milestone in the life of a childhood cancer patient that is officially called “long-term, event free survival” or something like that.
