Sheldon’s Story

Site created on March 3, 2020

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

Monday 3/2/2020, at home in Longview, Tx, a random dr office visit for constipation and a nose bleed landed us at Children's Hospital in Dallas, Tx.

Sheldon's blood counts were fatally low and they started him on blood transfusions. After numerous labs and tests: we got the dreaded news: Sheldon is positive for Leukemia. We now await the results of what type so we can get started and whoop its ugly butt. You are welcome to follow our journey as we will claim victory in this.

This page is hard to navigate via cell. It will not allow me to upload any more pics. I may be creating a fb page instead. I will let you all know soon. Thanks for the love.
