Nick's busy weekend

Nick and the family had a very busy weekend. Friday morning started with a playdate with his friend Michael and then a sleepover at Joey’s Friday night. Saturday brought another playdate, his friend Sean who is also fighting Leukemia. Sunday brought a visit from Uncle Dick and Aunt Mary and dinner from friends. Nicholas had a busy, fun and active weekend. He even got a ride on daddy's ATV. Greg and Colby look great with their new haircuts and Joey is getting jealous that Nick now has less hair than him. Nick will be admitted to the hospital on Tuesday to start Phase II, consolidation phase, if all goes well with his blood counts. This Phase will be very difficult for Nick and the family, as they start a new round of treatments and shots. Nick has been so strong and brave through the past month, we know he will get through this. Thanks everyone for their love and support – the Shannon family needs it!
