37 Treatments to go

Happy Friday to all!

Well today has gone ok but started off a little rocky. We had a pretty decent night last night but this morning he woke up vomiting. He did this several times. We were able to still receive treatment. I'm not sure really what to make of it. It is really early to have the radiation do this to him but I guess it could. We are going to see the oncology doc on Monday after trx. She wants to make sure we do not lose ground with Hayden's nutrition. Please pray for his appetite to increase and less vomiting. Hayden can not afford to lose any weight! I feel some of this may be brought on by nerves which is to be expected. I'm hoping once we get into the groove of things we will have smooth sailing.
We appreciate every prayer and every kind word spoken. This has been a long journey and at times we are so weary that you don't think you can go another step. I am so thankful God knows and is there with open arms to pick us up. I have often asked God why us; but why not us. We have through all of this seen God's hand so many times. His hand of mercy, His hand of love. I believe he sometimes has to break us in order to mold the very being he intended us to be. I have certainly grown through all of this. For those of you who know me well, really well (like family) be patient with me because God isn't finished yet! And...I don't think He's finished performing the miracles in Hayden's life either!!! The best is yet to come when Hayden can just be a little boy again. I truly believe it!
Please be in prayer for our niece and nephew(Brian and Kim) they lost their mom this week. Our hearts are saddened and it is hard because we could not be there with them through this...


Love ya,
Christy

Will be praying about the throwing up and Hayden's appetite. He is such a brave boy, and a blessing to so many. your whole family has blessed us all. Looking forward with you, for the day Hayden can be a normal little boy again. God is continuing to work miracles in his life. He is a very faithful God. Love and prayers always, Ms Sandra

Hi there. The McKeevers again. Sorry to hear that he is already getting sick, but hopefully the medicine will help with that. Wanted to let Hayden know that his and daddy's garden is growing some beautiful purple wildflowers! It looks awesome. Lots of rain here, ground was still wet from the snow. Hope Mason is doing good, we miss all of you. Will continue to pray.

Love Aunt and Uncle Neighbor
