A Bright Moment

Cash met with the gamma knife specialist today to discuss the upcoming procedure on the 21st.  The doctor's name was Ferreira and he was Portuguese which added to our conversation.  Unfortunately, he's on vacation next week but the other doctor, along with Dr. Douglas and a physisist, will be present during the procedure.  It is setting up to be a long day, starting at 6:30 a.m.  The actual procedure only lasts about 20 minutes but they have to do an MRI first and then map the best plan to shoot the 129 beams into the tumor so it does the least harm to good tissue.  We're hopeful and trust this is the best option to treat the new tumor and would ask for prayer for the doctors as they plan and that Cash comes through 'unharmed' so-to-speak.

During our wait today, Cash and I played with the camera on my phone and using an app that mimics the photo booths you occasionally see, here's what we did:

He had another great day, however, this evening while he was sleeping he threw up, which was a result of the chemo's we have been giving him.  I have to make sure I give him the anti-nausea meds on schedule to hopefully prevent that over the next few weeks but again I'd ask for prayer for Cash as we keep trying to 'maintain' these tumors.

God is continuing to teach us that each day is precious and to enjoy our children to the fullest.  We pray continuously that God grant us more time with our Miracle and are so thankful for how well Cash is doing.  Please do me a favor and hug your kids a bit tighter tomorrow and in spite of how 'busy' we can be, take extra moments to enjoy them and tell them how special and unique they are...

Thank you for your prayers and we feel your support whether you are near or far...
