Well we have almost made it through round 2. I had such good intentions of posting another update since our initial one last week, but things have been so busy. Every time I thought I’d have time to add an update, something always happened and it never worked out. The morning after the last update,Continue reading “Round 2 is Almost Done”

Yesterday we packed up the car and left the house around 11:30 to head back to Children’s of Milwaukee for Cade to begin round 2 of chemotherapy. My drive up was peaceful. As I pulled out of the neighborhood, with my mom following behind me to help me out, I saw a bird quickly flyContinue reading “Round 2 Begins”

Having Cade home this weekend was amazing for all of us. The first day was a bit nerve racking as I felt like he was barley peeing, not eating or drinking much, and still throwing up on top of it all. It was stressing me out. I kept saying to him, as I’d try toContinue reading “What a Wonderful Weekend”

Yesterday was a great day. I got to come home to spend the day with Rylan. I came home Tuesday night and was going to get up and go back Thursday for Chris to come back and go to work. To my absolute surprise, Chris called me yesterday morning saying that there is talk ofContinue reading “We are HOME!”

Cade and I have enjoyed our last couple days at the Ronald McDonald House. Tuesday night we settled in and he played a little. Wednesday my sister came up and spent a good part of the day with us. We took a quick field trip to a near by Starbucks to grab coffee and thenContinue reading “Back so Soon”

Well the time has certainly gotten away from me. It has been busy. Cade received the last drug of his cycle, Methotrexate, on Thursday. He did well with it overall. We haven’t seen any mouth sores at this point, so prayers that he maybe won’t get any this time around 🙏🏼 This particular drug isContinue reading “The Rest of Our 1st Cycle”

First and foremost, I can’t remember if I let everyone know this already or not, but the spinal tap was clean of any cancer cells!! Thank you God! Tuesday nights chemo doses went good, we had no allergic reaction to the Etopocide, which is great! However, between the Cisplatin Monday night and the Cytoxan heContinue reading “Cade’s Chemo Week”

Yesterday was the big day. And man was it a long day at that! We had to be at the oncologist office at 10am so we left the house at 8:30 for our journey. We were at the oncologist office for quite a while talking about the course, the meds, meeting the NP, etc. WeContinue reading “Children’s of Milwaukee”

We have had a fun weekend together so far. Friday morning started out with dentist appointments that I kept because I figured it was much easier to just deal with them now then try and reschedule them in the chaos that will soon become our lives. Plus, it was supposed to be Cade’s first teethContinue reading “Our Weekend So Far…”

Great news to report- yesterday he made it through the scans and they were able to complete everything!! I saw 2 sets of feet walking towards our room and I though, oh no! But the second set of feet was carrying Cade in as they told me that they were able to get everything done.Continue reading “Everything is Moving Along”
