Sorry everyone for the huge delay, This has been the far most busiest year we have ever encountered!!! doctor after doctor visits, treatment after treatments, its been truly "nuts"!!
Anyway, since last blog, we had JessesRide2010, it wasn't as big as the last few years rides but we did get about $1200. we still got plenty of BBQ and bottle water!!LOL!!.. but it was a great ride with no one getting hurt. almost everyone got a door prize! and we got to meet a lot of friends we haven't seen in awhile.
Aside from the doctor visits and such, Jesse has been doing a lot of camping and such with boyscouts. that has been a great thing this summer, before he had summer baseball, but he seemed to always not feel good and stayed exhausted with it. so this year we talked him into boyscouts, and it has been a great choice. he has really enjoyed it.
We also want to give a shout out to our friend ViviAnne. she is finished with chemo!!! we are so glad to see that she is done with it. Happy NewLife Day ViviAnne!!!! but we will miss you at clinic!!! http://www.viviannegrace.blogspot.com/ (Kristen, you have one year to let us know how its going to be on the "other side"!!LOL)
Jesse has one more year with treatments. 10/10/2011 will be his last, and we are looking forward to it. We wont know what to do when it comes to his chemo visits, the pains he gets, the crying,screaming, all the doctor visits, meds, hand sanitizer and oh yea, the pharmacy!! we cant forget that, I bet they go bankrupt after we tell them Jesse wont be back!! who would of thought that those pills could be such a huge daily hassle!??!! each day with a different doses,mlg's at different times, and you have to remember to refrigerate the liquid??!! we cant say enough on how much this is life altering. every day is a challenge with schedules and meds. "everyday"!!
and on top of all that, we have to juggle last minute decisions either he can go to his grandparents house for the weekend,camping,boyscout meetings, school all due to his current state of health and or if some one else is sick that he might come in contact with. its never ending, every day and minute consumes us whether he is home or somewhere else. "BUT" in the end we know that the hell we have been in the last 4 years will be well worth it! knowing that we don't have to worry about (hopefully) never again. knock on wood, with the end of chemo. end of chemo only comes if blood work approves of it! but we can only hope for the best.
The end of chemo will be a start of a fresh, new life!!
Again, Sorry for the delay on the posting. and Thank you for visiting.
Chris, Amy.
