Ezra Update

My amazing husband is spending the night with our baby tonight, so I am taking some time to sterilize my house, and write an update.

First off, I can’t even begin to express my gratitude to all of you that have helped my family out. I am completely blown away by people’s compassion, your emails, donations, and comments bring tears to my eyes. Social media is amazing, and is going to help make everyone in my family’s life a little easier.

There are also great people in my community that are working together to help us out. Thank you, thank you , thank you. Please keep up all the great work. There are so many things that I need and want to help make Ezra’s life as normal as it can be.

That is what hurts the most….knowing that he is not going to have a normal childhood.

Here is some pictures of Ezra on his bittersweet birthday, nothing like a round of chemo for your 2nd birthday.

Isn’t he handsome? I am going to miss those curls, his hair should start falling out with in a week or so.

Playing play-doh and Little People.

Giggling, cancer can not slow this little man down.

Ezra has had three rounds already of chemo, the first was put into his spine, the second through his port, and the third he got via 2 shots to the thighs.

He has responded well so far to the chemo, his blood counts are on the up, and he even seems to feel better.

For part of his chemo he has to take steroids, which has not been so fun. They make him irritable, and wakeful…two things that are no fun with any toddler.

If all goes well, he should be coming home tomorrow. I am so scared of that, because now its up to us to keep him alive, and out of harms way.

I will update more soon, thanks again, so much everyone!
