Welcome to Drew's Web Page. It has been provided to keep people updated about Drew-B.
Drew was 4 years old when he was diagnosed with a brain tumor, on April 22, 2004. This was also the 6th anniversary of our son's, Alex death. Drew was admitted to the hospital on April 22, 2004. On April 26, 2004 he had a successful surgery with approximately 98% tumor removal. On April 30, the pathology report confirmed the tumor was a Glioblastoma Multiforme. A very aggressive adult tumor, rarely seen in children.
Drew has a lifetime fight ahead of him. We are committed to finding a way to beat this horrid disease.

Drum roll, please ... the MRI is CLEAN!!! We are praising God even more than usual, if that is possible.
Drew is busy in school and with soccer. He has made 2 goals and several saves this season. He is having a blast!
Johnny is playing football and doing well in school.
Stephen has his learner's permit for driving. He is getting ready to start wrestling season and is doing well with his very heavy school load.
I am VERY proud of my boys!!!
Other than doctor appointments and chemo, we are living a pretty "normal" life and enjoying every blessing.
My thoughts and prayers are with the many that are ill or have won their battle and are now celebrating no more pain in Heaven. There have been too many people that have died from cancer. We have lost WAY too many children just in the past 2 weeks. My heart aches for their families.
Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers and continuing to check in on us. Drew will have another MRI on December 15.
