Cameron was diagnosed with Medulloblastoma in Febuary of 2008. After his tumor resection surgery, he underwent six weeks of radiation therapy and four months of chemotherapy. After these treatments, we went back into our "normal" lives and Cameron progressed well getting back into school and the day-to-day of being a little boy.



However, a routine MRI on March 19, 2010 showed his cancer had returned. On November 9th, 2011, Cameron finally conquered his battle with cancer when he opened his eyes to the joys of heaven. Even in these dark days, we know God has richly blessed us by putting so many wonderful people in our path during this journey and we are so very thankful for them all.

A bit better day...

After a VERY long day yesterday and night, things seem a bit better with Cameron today. We finally got his nausea and pain under control which brought his spirits up. After eating a bit of breakfast this morning, he was anxious to head to Target for Halloween and Christmas lights and so we did. As he was getting out of the car at Target, he says "listen to the beautiful birds"...I love that kid. In the midst of hell on Earth, he still sees the beauty of every day. And yes, for those of you who are wondering, we did put up one (I put up about four every year) Christmas tree today for Cameron. Why?...not because I think things are imminent but because why not. He loves Christmas, he loves every day, he just loves life. And we love him...so up went the first of many trees!!! And I couldn't be happier. Is Cameron out of the woods...no! But today was a better day and after all, today is all we are promised. Love to you all...

Christmas is a celebration of Jesus's birth. Why not celebrate it every day! the more trees the merrier!
