My post today is because we've come to a HUGE milestone for us! Three years, one month and 18 days ago (that's Jan 6th, 2012 if I counted correctly), this difficult journey began when Daniel was diagnosed with A.L.L. leukemia. One of the most difficult portions of the journey for Daniel has been the relentless stream of spinal tap / IT injection treatments along the way - 31 including today's. But today, God willing, is the LAST ONE! While the rest of his chemotherapy will continue through most of April, today may be the biggest milestone to which he's been looking forward.
Please keep us in your prayers today, that: A) nothing would go wrong this last time, B) that he will be able to keep his nerves under control (always an issue), and C) that it would truly be the LAST time he has to go through this.
THANK YOU to everyone who has been following, praying for us, and walking alongside us through this nightmare. We thank the Lord for you all and for how very much your love and support has meant to us through these days. Through you, He has loved, held, supported, and sustained us through places we would surely never have been able to persevere. We've suffered a little, learned much, loved much, gained many new relationships, and lost some precious friends along this path. The end is in sight.
The first attached photo shows Daniel just a couple days into his treatment in January of 2012. Standing with him are two of his best friends, Daniel A. on the right, and Joey K. on the left whom we lost just 10 months later to Medulloblastoma. The rest are just a few highlights from along the way.
