This is a story about my seven year old son Matthew and his journey and struggles with having cancer. It also will have reflections from Matthew's Father John, Mother Kat, and twelve year old sister Kyra. On August 14th 2009 at about 11 p.m. Matthew was diagnosed with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and all of our lives were changed forever. Hopefully one day when Matthew grows up he can read this, and also maybe someone who is newly diagnosed can read this blog and find comfort.

Life on Chemo is like a Wild Roller Coaster
Matthew's numbers finally tanked! WHOOT And somehow I feel so much better. High numbers CAN be an indicator that the Leukemia is brewing again. When Matt's numbers take a nose dive, it means the chemo is working. Treatment is such a roller coaster and I am holding on for dear life! Sometimes it is easy to feel complacent like there is nothing wrong with Matthew, he is just your avereage boy, being a boy and driving me CRAZY. And then...in the next moment he is just blah and tired. Overall there is more highs than lows these days and I hope it stays this way!
