for all of your thoughts & prayers. We are going home today. They are tying up some loose ends with regards to his platelet/hgb needs and pain management.

for all of your thoughts & prayers. We are heartbroken beyond words. It is all I can do to breathe. Cameron knows that the leukemia did not respond to the latest chemo. He knows that we are going home and nurses will be coming to our house. He also knows that he will be taking some more chemo at home. What he doesn't know if that things will likely go badly quite quickly. I don't plan on telling him for a host of reasons that I don't want to debate. We believe it will cause him unnecessary grief and worry and he won't be able to enjoy the days that he does feel well. As for what he needs, I prefer no cards of sorrow, only jokes and feel good type things. He has every toy/game imaginable.

For those who have asked what they can do to help - the things we need, apart from prayers, aren't easy to send across the miles. Food. House cleaning. laundry. I've hated to ask for help from our family, friends or church, but my stength and energy are running pretty low. I cannot manage this. My dad may stay with us some to help out with Samantha. It has only been 3 weeks since mom died.

Lori, whatever you choose is best is your decision. I agree that he doesn't need added stress or worry. I continue to pray for him and for you. Let the people around you help. Just do what you can to make it through the day. I wish I could do more for you. I am still praying that you get a miracle.

I am so sorry. But I can guarantee that no one you have asked for help has minded, and are probably more than happy to help, so take everyone you can up on anything they can give.
