NOAH ALLEN FORBES Noah Allen Forbes May 31,2003-May 12,2006 Hi! This website was created for Noah Allen Forbes. Noah was diagnosed with Stage IV Neuroblastoma in October of 2004. He was sixteen months old. He has undergone seven rounds of chemotherapy two stem cell transplants, fifteen radiation treatments and five rounds of Accutane at OU Children's Medical Center in Oklahoma City. After enjoying seven blissful months of NED, on Feb. 6, 2006 we found out Noah had relapsed. A tumor had grown on the left side of his brain (temple region) He had the tumor removed and completed three rounds of oral Etoposide (VP-16) at home. Sadly, on Friday, April 28 we found out again that Noah had yet again relapsed. On Monday, May 1 we found out it was much worse than imagined. The cancer came back in the same spot, only the tumor was much larger than before and growing inward instead of out. We made the heart wrenching decision to stop treatment and bring Noah home under Hospice care to keep him comfortable. Noah gained his angel wings @ 6:47 a.m. on Friday, May 12,2006
