Great week!

Sorry I haven't updated recently. I have let time slip by and have been enjoying the past week at home with Mac. He did great during his last round of chemo. He was even able to participate in the Harbor Walk & Run last Saturday, the day after he was released from the hospital. They have changed the formula he gets at night and increased the volume by more than double. He is tolerating all of his feeds and there is a remarkable difference in his energy level!

Last Wednesday, Mac received an award at school. With very little help he was able to climb the stairs to the stage and accept his award to a standing ovation. I was overcome with emotions, pride in Mac, gratitude for the support from our school family, and sheer joy to see Mac with a genuine smile on his face for the first time since his diagnosis in January.

Although Liam has only been on vacation 3 days and 2 of them Mac has been in clinic he seems to be doing really well. You can almost see the physical change of stress be released off of him. I love to wake up in the morning and hear the two of them chatting and laughing together. There is no sweeter sound then the sound of children laughing.

We will find out tomorrow what day next week Mac will have his next MRI. I am trying to be cautiously optimistic but Mac has been more of himself this past week then he has been in 6 months. I pray that this is a sign of good news next week and great things to come for him.
