I cannot begin to explain this feeling I have.  I woke you up this morning to see a HUGE smile on Cody's face.  Four years ago we spent this day at Huntington hospital only to end up at Schneider's with a leukemia diagnosis.  This past year has been a good one for Cody.  I do not think there have been any overnight hospital stays and Cody has  been gaining weight.  I think our biggest concern is the drooping eyelids which bothers Cody a lot.  We are on the path to getting this fixed.  The school year has been a much better one for you and I am pretty confident he did good this semester. Unfortunately there has been a huge tragedy here in CT.  A gunman went into a school and killed a large number of kids and teachers. It is unbelievable.  Very scary and sad to say the least.  My heart hurts for the families and teachers affected.
With that, I leave this blog with Cody's facebook post: 4 years ago today i was told that i has leukemia. And to think it would lead to a stem cell transplant, feeding tubes, brain swelling, and make my blood type change is crazy! 4 years strong and Im gonna make it 100 more!!!
