Chemo Day 3
Hi all – just a quick update. Sally was at Sloan-Kettering again today for her 3rd and final day of intense chemo this week. She did well, sleeping twice through treatment and being in an overall good mood. Her counts still looked good, so we hope for a hospital free weekend. Sally usually does fine […]
Halloween
Hi all – sorry about sending the random picture earlier, was trying something new on my phone and thought I was just uploading it to the site. Happy so many of you enjoyed it! I’m going to use pictures with captions to walk you through our day… So we headed home, and Day 2 is […]
Red Devil
Hi all – Sally began Hell Week 2 of her cycle today. She will receive three straight days of heavy chemo, although can come home each night. Sally has had these types of chemo before, but never grouped together at once like this. Independently she suffered side effects from these, including fevers, so Nicole and […]
Improvement
Hi all – Nicole and I are about to try and head out to a local party in a bit. With adults only. A concept very foreign to us and is much needed after last weekend of hospital trips and a crazy week ahead. I just wanted to post a quick update as we haven’t […]

Flu Shot
Hi all – today we headed in with Sally for her treatment at Sloan Kettering. Last night, Nicole and I were talking about how we weren’t very clear on the path of Sally’s treatment, so decided to see if we could both get a meeting with one of her doctors to ask some questions that […]
3 Months In
Hi all – We realized today that it’s been exactly three months since Sally was formally diagnosed with Infant Leukemia. It feels longer, Nicole says it’s felt like a year. It has been a bit longer, and many who follow Sally’s updates have only started following recently and not know the whole story which I’ll […]
Ear Infection (Thank God)
Hi all – The last 24 hours was a whirlwind. Last night, Sally was as jolly as could be. She was smiley and playful, I put her down on the bathmat so I could, well, use the potty. She just sat there playing with a stool and one of William’s socks he left in there […]
Cocktail
Hi all – Starting to get texts and emails asking how Sally is doing so figured I’d better get an update out. We try to post something daily on Facebook, if you don’t follow you can by clicking here and liking Sally’s page. Sally had an OK week. Over the weekend, she was very clingy […]
