Update from Laurie, March 14, 2010

Well we officially have finished our 2nd day of chemo and you would never know if you were here with Jack. He is in great spirits and playing as if everything is normal. He has grown to really like 2 of the nurses here and loves when they come to visit him. I think he has a thing for blondes!


Every time one of the medications is done, the machine will beep. Zac has taught him how to call the nurses on the remote and when they ask what he needs he yells, "I'm beeping!!" Pretty darn cute...

On another note, Braden has his dr's appointment with the cardiologis​t tomorrow so hopefully they will have some good news for us. He eats like a champ and has been gaining good weight so that's a good sign. 

-Braden is Jack's newborn brother.  He was born almost a month ago, and when he was about a week old we were told he has a medium to large in size hole in his heart.  We knew of Braden's condition before Jack's.  He is visiting a cardiologist weekly, but is doing very well.  As you can imagine, the stress of having both of your children ill is really something to handle.  But Zac and Laurie are doing fantastic and are totally united in their common goal.
