SMILE!!!


This morning we got up super early to take Joshua to the hospital for the surgery to set his medi-port. The surgery went very well and Joshua did great! We were home by lunchtime. He still has the PICC line in his arm but it will be removed on Monday when we go back into the hospital for two days for the start of  his next phase of chemotherapy.

 Josh has always loved taking pictures and had fun taking pictures of all the nurses and things he saw at the hospital.

Hi Joshua, We have never met. I'm your Mom's cousin from Michigan. Your Mom has always kept me updated with pictures of you and your brothers over the years. My Mom sent me your blog so that I could read your progress and pray for you. I believe you are a strong and courageous person. I'm new at this blog thing. So let me know if I'm missing something. I typed a greeting earlier but find out I needed to sign up for this. So I lost everything I wrote. Give your Mom a hug for me and tell her I said "HI". Love you all, Jennifer

Great job Josh! I know when I called your Mommy said you were all tired and hope you got some rest yesterday. You look like a regular professional with that camera in hand!

That Bucs hat and the prayer shawl look great together (maybe if you said a very small prayer for a win on Sunday, it would be OK?)

We are very proud of how strong you are and your parents are wonderful. I agree with your Daddy, blue is the color for your Mommy.

I love you all! Miss Laura
