Busy 10 days Ahead

Lots going on in the next 10 days. On Tuesday, Drew is going in to the U of M to have his port removed and his ear tubes replaced. At this point in Drew's treatment it was decided that Chemo is behind us. It is very exciting to know that we won't have to put more poisen in Drew, however if his cancer continues to be an issue long term we know radiation will be the next step. We are very hopeful that the laser/freezing therapy's do the trick. The ear tubes will help with those recurring ear infections that have been quite frequent this fall.



On Friday, Jack will be having hopefully his 1st and last plastic surgery. He has a large overlap on his nose that the surgeon will be "sanding" down. We've heard that some people can get hooked on plastic surgery but this may be a little different case :-).



A week from Tuesday, we'll be heading back to St. Jude for another routine exam under anasthesia. We're curious to see how that one vein has reacted to the November treatment. We're hoping to start counting the months in remission again.
