Home again, Home again, Gigity Jog.

Things are more calm now. Gordon is home and getting better, we go to the doctor handling his infection on Tuesday and the cardiologist for a stress test on Thursday. Josh had good counts so unless they drop this week (which is a real possibility) we will be going into the hospital on Friday for his next inpatient chemo. Of course calm here means that between Gordon and Joshua we have 5 doctors appointments, 4 other appointments, dogs to breed, and lots of paperwork to catch up on.
I am very grateful for the chance to focus on things and still have my partner and best friend to help. Lots of people say that our life is hard but truly we are very blessed. Someone told us that 9 out of 10 people that went through what Gordon did do not survive. We know many children with Josh's diagnosis that can't walk without a walker, or have shunts. No matter what the future holds today is great! We are living and trying to have fun! We are together! We are blessed!

Ruth, I don't know how you do it! We're happy to hear that Gordon in back home to doing well. Tell Josh that we are thinking and praying for him.
We love you!
