Hi Benjamin!

If my records are correct, someone at your house is having a birthday!

Starting kindergarten, coming up on five years NED, and a birthday on top of all that! I'm excited just thinking about it.

Hi, my name is Laura Shepherd and I am the great aunt of Rachel D'Andrea, age 23 months,who last month was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma Stage IV. I have been reading and learning from the stories of other children and their families as they deal with this disease. Many of the stories have moved me to tears as my little Rachel goes through similar paths in her fight again NB. I thank Dear God that your little boy is now well and free of this disease. May the Lord continue at his side always.

I'm new to your son's site and learned about his site via carolyn. Our son was Carolyn's best friend. We moved to the east coast (new York) from Michigan and it has been quite the adjustment.

I was thinking about how you probably miss the west coast and how I miss Michigan. :)

Your son Benjamin is adorable.

We'll be sure to keep him in our prayers.

Hi Benjamin!

I hope those leg pains have gone away or at least continued to get better. I'm afraid I don't know how to get those girls to stop kissing you at school - it's a major problem, all right.

Saylor, I don't blame you for hanging on to Macy's blanket. You must be very proud of her and want to grow up to be like her.

Hi,

I am the Dad of AJ, a 14 year old cancer victim. I wanted to make you aware (maybe again) and enlist your help for the Cure Childhood Cancer petition! The GREAT news is that CureSearch, LIVESTRONG and Alex’s Lemonade Stands have ALL written about the Petition on their websites! And TX Children’s and DUKE have both allowed us to setup paper versions inside the hospitals! WE ARE MAKING HEADWAY and are at over 11,000 signatures! But we need your help again. If you can please make your readers aware, email it around again, and give just a little publicity, I think we can make this happen!

Thanks again,
AJs Dad

Hi Candace,
It was so nice meeting you all last night at St. Baldrick's. I'm sorry that I didn't get to introduce you to Kelly and Bailey and the family. It got pretty hectic there and when I finally found time, you must have gone home. We'll have to get you all together sometime. Until then, we'll have to rely on Caringbridge. So glad that Benjamin is doing so well.

I am sure you are thinking that anyways. Glad to hear you had nothing to do with the food posioning thing. Just kidding, I never even thought that. But had to say it since you mentioned it. Sounds as if everyone is doing well and keeping busy. I can not believe you already have your Christmas lights up. Good for you. I am planning on starting this weekend with decorations.

Thank God for clean scans. I am so happy to hear the news. I know exactly what you mean about not having any more scans done...it's scary, but at the same time...it's a relief. I still get nervous every time Lucas gets sick. I am sure that fear will never go away no matter how hard we try. Our boys have such strength and have made it through so much. I pray that God will watch over them and keep them free of cancer. They deserve a long and happy life.

I hope Benjamin is feeling better soon. Oh how right you are. Every illness freaks me out too. I am glad they are going to "humor" you and go ahead and do a urine test. That is great. I have been freaked out quite a few times myself by viral infections. I do find that the further we go out the less incidents there are that freak me out but nonetheless, they are still present and still occur. Hope Benjamin is running circles around you soon and having fun. Enjoy your time with Macy and hope you get to go to the park. Thinking of you.

Congrats to Macy for being the student of the week. That is great news. Sounds as if all is going well for you guys. Benjamin going into the "terrible twos". Good luck is all I will say. Sometimes we still have the terrible twos at 4 and 7 years old (just kidding). Kids will be kids, what can you say. Love them dearly and try to teach them right from wrong. That is our job!!! You keep planning that trip. You deserve it.

Dr.NED, I like that name. That is cool. Well what can I say.....I have no real good advice on how to leave our children and go on vacation. I am sure it will be difficult for us both. I am looking forward to vacation and know we absolutely need it and deserve it but that does not make it easier. The only good thing is that our family will be caring for the kiddos while we are gone and the kids will love that. I am sure when we see families together it will really make us miss the kids but you know what? We need to get away for a little as a husband and wife and enjoy each other for a change and just focus on us. We are anxious and looking forward to it. I hope too that you are able to get a way (kid free) and enjoy yourself. We all deserve it, for sure. So go ahead and plan something and have a great time. Hugs to you all.

Happy Easter

Hi
my name is Brandy and my son Kohlman was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma on April 27th,2004 with stage 4s. Was your son diagnosed through ultrasound? Because it says that he was born on the 18th of August and he was diagnosed on the 10th of August or was that just a misprint? Because i know someone who's child was diagnosed inutero. Amazing Kohlman was only eleven days old when we found his. he has been cancer free since Sept.2004. We were treated in Rochester Minnesota. well good luck with your little one. May God Bless you and your family. He's such a cutie.

Wow you guys had a busy December then didn't you? Glad you got moved and settled in. Sounds like Macy will be one busy little girl. Good for her. So glad Benjamin is doing well and getting into everything. Oh, how I remember those days. I know what you mean about scanning every 6 months. We are doing every 4 months right now but after our scans in March we will then go to every 6. It is nice to have the break between scan times but also makes me nervous not scanning. Need to learn how to live and let go some more, which will come with time, I am sure. You guys all take care. God bless.

I've been lurking on the N-blastoma list and I have loved following the links to different sites. I especially enjoy visiting and reading about Benjamin, I think because he was diagnosed so early and that's what I relate to--we are in the midst of initial treatment of our baby's NB. How wonderful to get to the one year mark! Happy Birthday darling Benjamin!!! I will pray for clean scans.

With Love,

P.S. Macy, isn't it wonderful to see Van Gogh paintings in real life!?! Reproductions of them just can't capture the light that the real paintings have. I remember going around a corner at the National Gallery in London and seeing the painting "Van Gogh's Chair". It really did glow! I hope you got to see some marvelous paintings in D.C.

Hello there Benjamin. This is my first time to your site. You are a cutie. My sons name is Benjamin too, but we call him Benny. He will be 4 tomorrow. You are the same age as my youngest son. I bet you are into everything and keeping your Mom super busy! Keep on smiling kiddo, you are adorable!

Candace, we are members of the same on-line support group. Are you on the ACOR list too, or just the Moms of Cancer Kids one? Scans are a very scary time. Benny has his coming the week after next and I am quite scared. You want to know but at the same time you don't want to know. It can be very emotionally confusing. You are in my thoughts. Take care.

Dear Benjamin,

This is my first visit to your site, and am so delighted to hear that your neuroblastoma was caught at a very early Stage 1. Seems from reading your website that you were actually diagnosed before you were even born. Will be praying for you, that God will pour out His blessings in abundance for you and your family.

Bear Hugs,

Hi, Thanks for posting benjamins website to the list. I like to "meet" the kids when I can. God Bless your little one. Hopefully he will be fine and never remember a thing. Sean was dx at 11mo. He is doing fine and has not had treatment other than surgery so far. (Stage 3-inter risk, favorable biology). I will keep you in our prayers! Blessings!
