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.

Prayers, please.

We were up during the night with Ryan. He woke up complaining of pains in his leg, arm, and ribs both front and back. He had a low grade fever last night, but we never called the on-call doc. We did give him Tylenol. His ANC should be high enough to keep him out of the hospital, but you never know. Les is taking him down to the clinic today. Please pray that these pains and fever are due to something, anything other than cancer. Thanks, Les, Missy, Heidi, Will, and SuperRyan
