Heart Walk 2009

Well folks, we did the heart walk last Saturday, April 25. It was a 5k and Caden did soooooo good. He jogged about 2/3 of it and then needed a piggyback ride from yours truly, lol, then jogged the rest until the very end. Had another piggy back ride, but I made him cross the finish line on his own!!! Funny that he wanted the rides whenever we hit a hill!!!!! Needless to say he slept very well that night! Cameron did a combo of walk/jog and required no piggy back rides (thank God, that kid weighs a ton!). It is exactly two weeks until he turns 5. I remember this time last year...he barely made his 4th birthday and struggled for a long time after. He has come such a long way. We all have. I am so thankful for our good health and I really cherish our lives. His counts are doing pretty good. His platelets are still not in the normal range, got a ways to go there, but that takes the longest after treatment to get back to normal. He still gets sick more often than he should and it lasts a little longer, but all in all he is doing awesome!!!!
