I have been so busy that I haven’t updated you guys!
Spencer had his 3 month ampuversary! yay!! He is still doing great.
And best of all, he is done with chemo and the oncologist gave a great update! He came in and started laying out where we go from here – every 3 months for the first year. I think he said every 6 months for the second year. So I asked wht he thought were the odds that we would make it to any of those appointments, reminding him that initially he had said Spencer had about 50/50 odds of making it to 1 year. The doctor said that he is cautiously optimistic that Spencer’s odds are MUCH better than that and that he would be surprised if Spencer isn’t back for his 2 year followup!
Santa was great to Spencer for Christmas, lots of new toys. Some are already torn up as is Spencer’s habit. We spent a lazy Christmas just hanging around the cabin – the 5 of us and Spencer.
Thanks for being there for us the last 3 months and I’ll be sure to continue updating!
Merry Christmas everyone! And… I don’t have a Christmas picture with Spencer; but here is one with the kids taken Christmas eve. (had to use a slow shutter speed to get it and I knew Spencer would not play “statue” very well, which is necessary with a slow shutter speed!). The kids have all agreed that Spencer having a better chance of being OK was the best Christmas present they could have gotten. 🙂
