Day -1. Day 0 Tomorrow (Transplant)


Medicine Tree

The last couple days have been tough for Cole.  The isolation combined with heavy doses of chemo have started to take their toll.  It's a view into what lies ahead, but I'm confident Cole will remain strong.  The notes, posts, cards, prayers, jokes, phone calls and Facetiming keep his spirits high, so please feel free to keep them coming. 

Janet remains Cole's rock...a constant force of support and light.  Ryan is the knight in shining armor that, without hesitation, will save the day for his little brother.  Cole continues to stay s strong.  If his superhero idols were here, I'm certain they would look to Cole for strength.  It takes a village to go through this, and for that I can never express my gratitude to all of our family and friends. I have redefined my definition of a hero, and they live amongst me...

For now, we wait with anticipation for transplant tomorrow.
