Happy Birthday Jack

Chemotherapy started this morning, thankfully. 
He is looking a bit puffy, but otherwise no tiredness or nausea. Hopefully that trend continues. 
Another cycle of chemo tomorrow, and so on until Wednesday. 

We celebrated his 7th birthday today. It was a classy Spongebob themed affair, with who's-who of Spongebob connoisseurs. But the party only started when Mr. Froggy showed up. (Second one from the left, below.)

Pinky up, as we say when being fancy. 


Jack and Chase:

Today I'm grateful for:
- Caring teachers of Campbell elementary, and their little coyotes,
- great gifts that made Jack happy,
- that for now, he still feels good.

  1. A quick update, nausea is starting to kick in now, but he's not too bothered by it.

    1. Thank you Kate, they are handsome little fellas. Jack has been sleeping for a couple of hours now, so that should help.

  3. Happy 7th birthday, Jack!!! You & Chase look so handsome, and Mr. Froggy doesn't look too bad either! I love your Sponge Bob cake and it looks like you got lots of cool legos. I'm sure as smart as you are, you will have them all built in no time. Love you and hope to see you all soon!

  4. Happy Birthday Jack!! What a birthday to remember, hope all is going well. Love the pics of the boys, you can see how much Chase cares for his little brother.
    I tried to text you a couple messages, but I'm thinkin that I don't have the right #. Kelli would like to talk to you or Sarah to give you a lot of the ins and outs of going through this from her experience.
    Hope your stay at Childrens is a good one, they were so good to Abe and family.
    Sending lots of prayers!
