Hi guys,

My 17 year old son was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia on 1/18. The prognosis is very good, but the induction phase of chemo is pure hell! He's already lost 20 pounds and was diagnosed today with C Diff. If he loses any more weight, may need to consider a feeding tube. We are very hopeful for a quick remission, so any kind thoughts and prayers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hang in there.

you have my prayers. if there is any way i can help or even just let you vent let me know. i had a little boy who passed away with retinoblastoma, a type of eye cancer, when he was almost 5 years old and i totally know how hard it is to watch your child go through so much on chemo. i am here if you need me. god be with you.

I will keep you, your son, and your family in my prayers. It seems so hard sometimes why things have to happen like this, but we can always count on God's strength. :) Remmeber to take care of yourself too, as it takes a toll on your emotions. Much love, Natalie

My thoughts and prayers are with your son, you and your family.

May God's loving presence be with you all at this time...
