Zachary Daniel Till "ZACH" Welcome to Zach's web page. We are so happy that you are checking in on us. Zach's journey began long before now, when he was barely one day old. A child born with a tumor--hard to believe, stage v, Wilms' Tumor. So the journey began---The right kidney was removed at 4 days however a non-cancerous spot was found on the remaining kidney. Zach recovered quickly and never looked back. Close follow-up continued and in October 2000 a Wilm's tumor appeared on the left kidney. It was inoperable because of the location, so chemotherapy was recommended and lasted six months. For two years Zach remained in remission and continued to thrive! In August of 2003 we were devestated to find that the Wilms' had recurred in Zach's kidney. Inpatient chemotherapy along with radiation were the treatments suggested. Zach's protacol is soon to be complete with his last scheduled treatments in May of 2004. This is not the road we would have chosen, but through the grace of God, we have traveled the road and are stronger and alot more thankful. Zach's life has been full of miracles since the beginning. You cannot look into his sweet face and not see the hand and heart of God. For this we are truely greatful.
"he gathers the lambs in His arms and carries them close to His heart." Isaiah 40:11
God Bless YOU all for your continued prayers--- Tammy, Dan, Zach and Drew
