Hi,
Just a quick update to let everyone know that Nick's H1N1 test was negative. They did find he had 2 viruses, thus leading to the fever. The new swab test can test for everything. We are trying to keep all the boys busy while at home. Nick understands he can not go anywhere and is okay with it.
Also, Tom and Colby finally received their first dose of the H1N1 shot. Our doctor's office called last week and said they would hold a dose for each child. I took them both yesterday. Colby was so nervous and kept saying he would not get the shot. He cried right up until they gave it to him and then he realized it did not even hurt. After everything Nick has gone through, I think he was scared and worried it would really hurt. I have to say, it was easy for me to deal with. You see so much more that goes on with Nick, that this is just a walk in the park to take care of. Tomorrow we will head to clinic after school. Take care. Karen
Nick is an amazing 6 year old fighting T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). He was diagnosed at 4 years old on Oct. 15, 2008 and here is the story of his courageous battle. This day changed our lives forever. Nick seemed very healthy at the time and the only signs we noticed were swollen lymph nodes on his neck. At first, we thought it could be a virus, but after 2 rounds of blood tests, the doctors confirmed our worst fear, cancer. This site is to show how strong our little boy is.
Update:
Nicholas finished treatment on 11/18/2010. He will continue to go for blood work for the next 3 years. He is still in remission.
