Guest guest Posted August 26, 1999 Report Share Posted August 26, 1999 Wow...I just got some news, and I don't know where to start... I have a favor to ask all of you....you guys have always been there for me when I needed you. If it weren't for the support groups, I don't think I would have made it through the last year...and now I have yet another favor to ask... Today was the first day of school for me. The day went really well...until the manditory drama club meeting. Everybody was suspicious all day as to why we were having such an urgant meeting the first day of school...well....here goes: My drama directors little boy, , has cancer. I've known him since he was almost a year old. He is now 4 1/2. He has been fighing the cancer since birth, with no luck. He went through his chemo a few weeks ago, and after a bunch of CT scans, chest x-rays, and basically, pictures of the whole body, they've found that the cancer has spread to his lungs. Right now, he is undergoing another treatment which is experimental. If this helps enough, they will surgically go in and try to get rid of anything and everything, so that they can do cell transplantation. Unfortunately, the doctors aren't very optomistic. They told his parents to talk to him about dying, and explain it to him the best they can. They've said that they believe he has about three months...at the most. goes back in for more x-rays and stuff on August 31st to see if he will be able to undergo the operation. Which has VERY high risk, and is experimental. Any prayers would be greatly appreciated. This little guy is such a sweetie...the thought of anything happening to him is just killing me. Please keep him in your prayers. Thanks guys Violet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
