Last night I talked to Shauna and got her hooked up so that she could contribute to the blog ( blogger didn't send the invite the first time) So in the posts below you can see some cute pictures and a video of little Timmy! I wish that I didn't have a cold right now so that I could go and see him!
Shauna said that today at 11:30 Tim will have his MIBG test. This is the final test that is needed to fully diagnose Tim and to give what stage of cancer it is, and what treatments there will be to come. Please pray hard this morning that the test will come back clean, with no other tumors than what they know about!
Shauna also said that the original tumor found (they didn't operate on this one, just the one by the spine) has shrunk significantly already...with no treatment, which is great!
As I talked to Shauna she sounded much more rested as they were able to spend their weekend at home as a family. She said that it was very nice just to have coffee in their livingroom, and almost made it feel like everything was just a bad dream.
But alas, this morning they head back to the hospital, for the test, and his first round of chemo should start soon after.
Please continue to pray for Tim as he starts this treatment, that he won't get too sick from it and that he won't get any colds or fevers so that he can come home for a few weeks after treatment.
Please also continue to pray for Kate, as this has been difficult for her as life as she knew it was turned upside down.
Please also pray that Shauna will soon find an associate for her chiropractic practice.
Thanks for reading and for your prayers, and please enjoy the pictures of the beautiful boy below!
