The awful news is that Cody's Uncle Jim called me. He is the uncle that has been a huge support for Cody and I through this leukemia battle. Very sad news. His 3 year old son, Matisse was diagnosed with leukemia today. So strange. Very upsetting to say the least. Cody feels awful and somehow feels like he caused it. He keeps asking if it is contagious. Now Casey is asking about the hereditary issue. I quickly sent out emails to our team at Sloan. Dr. Kernan, Cody's main dr asked me to call her. I quickly did and she took down some info and also called Jim. Jim knows most of the drs too. She was going to go see him but worked on her part and got him admitted to Sloan. She is a great person. We are going there tomorrow and Cody is allowed to visit him. We feel terrible but we know he is in the right place. We are waiting to hear on the type as to what the course of attack will be. We are so lucky to have to staff at Sloan and they are very compassionate people. Cody has been emailing a boy he met and we actually saw him do the puck drop a few weeks ago at a hockey game. He is in our old room at Sloan and Cody wants to see him too. He knows we may not be able to but he wants to get him a present. Very sad and so unfortunate. Not fair...
