Support PABLOVE

Hi everyone, I know long time since the last update !!! Really wish there was no need for a blog or caring bridge site but since we've been thrown into the world of childhood cancer it would be really unfair of me not to update and let everyone know what's going on in the little mans life.
First off I wanted to let all our friend's that may still read this that Pablo lost his battle in June, I shut down after that for a while even though I never met him, I talked to his dear mother a lot and grew incredibly close to them. It hit so close to home and damn that hurt. I can't even imagine how his parent's are surviving. His father has thrown all his pain into a bike ride across America starting Oct. 10th for 30 day's. I hope that all our friend's and family go to Pablove.org and support Jeff. I only wish I could do half of what he's doing for our kid's. All the monies raised from this ride go right back into childhood cancer. I'm in Ah of them.
Now on to the little guy, well maybe not so little no more, he has a Birthday on Thursday the big 9 !!!!! We never thought we would see him at 7 and look now, mannnn life is good. No big party this year, he just wants a couple of his bud's to come over and go to Fun Land. This should be a pretty laid back birthday this year, even though I'll be screaming and jumping for joy inside. On the medical front everything has been good, knock on wood. Next scans Nov. 2nd, they changed them from Oct. and then wanted to change them to Nov. 3rd, ummmm no way. Nov. 3 rd three year's ago our lives changed forever and I do mean forever, D day, diagnoses day in our case. Not a day goes by that we don't think of it and how it has changed us, mostly for the good. Sometimes the ugly in it comes out and I try hard to handle it with grace and compassion. I really try to feel compassion for people but it's so damn hard after seeing what these kiddos go through. I promise I'll update after scans to let everyone know how it went. Praying already for good news. We're starting to relax a little bit on that part, now granted I won't sleep for a couple night's before our trip to DC. I really try hard to just let him be a normal kid, even though he'll never be anything but normal to us, AMAZING is more like it.
