My Story

March 2006, our beautiful 7 year old Kristen was diagnosed with an Osteo Sarcoma (Bone Cancer) on her leg.

This site will help maintain contact with Kristen's many friends and prayer warriors who join us in praying for her recovery. There is a journal, a photo gallery, and a guestbook for messages. Donations to this website go to others who want to set up a similar website.

Hi Friends

This will just be a short post to let you know that we had chest xrays yesterday for Kristen and it brings me much joy to report that she is still CANCER FREE!!!!!

No signs of any problems in her lungs. We are not doing bone scans now or CT scans unless we see a problem. She has had so much exposure from all of these that I am glad to just do a simple chest xray.

Her magisium levels still holding but on the low side so she will take her "yucky" magisium but we'll take it. Her chemo left her kidney "drippy" so to speak but functioning fine.

Unless something comes up sooner we will go back in Oct. for xrays and her annual echo to check her heart function.

We've dropped the hearing tests as her hearing seems to be fine. Amazing after the scary hearing loss that she had early on in her chemo. I hate chemo!!

Prosthetist appt. in July maybe for a new socket and then off to two camps. One for Diabetic kids and the other in Idaho for kids with limb loss. They are both so much fun for us all.

Thank you for visiting us and your prayers
