About Me

Name:
Location: Athens, Ga, United States

Our son Ryan was diagnosed with stage 4 Neuroblastoma in 2004. In 2007, my wife Missy was diagnosed with stage 2 triple negative breast cancer. On July 8th, 2009, Missy lost her battle to this horrible disease. 2 days later, on July 10th, Ryan also lost his. Together forever, they both watch over our family now from the heavens above. Below is our families journey through Ryan's treatments, along with the joy and laughter we tried to instill into our daily lives. Those days helped us all cope with the pain and suffering that comes with cancer and it's deadly treatments. Both Missy and Ryan endured high doses of chemo, radiation and surgeries. Over 150 nights spent in the hospital and many, many more days. More transfusions than I could count. Yet both Missy and Ryan took on each day with a positive attitude and warm smile for all their friends. We miss them terribly. They will always be a shining light in our lives.

Just want him better

The cumulative effects of Ryan's chemo is beginning to be noticeable. He wasn't feeling very well at dinner last night and woke up with a sore throat this morning. Missy said he was sick a couple of times on the way to the hospital. Ryan's treatment has been moved out from a three week chemo schedule to a four week. This will give him more time to recover and regain his counts. We should hear today the results of his bone aspirates from last week. It will sure be a blessing if they are clear. Will is with him today so that hopefully will pick Ryan up. Les, Missy, Heidi, Will and SuperRyan
