My beautiful Joseph with his blue eyes, ready smile and arms always open for a hug or a tickle fight

[Trazzletoes]

He has survived the most horrific cancer treatment with his smile, joy and love intact. Unfortunately the neuroblastoma has survived too.

Sending every single positive thought I can muster your may, trazzle. Glad you had a lovely weekend x

Oh I will redouble my positive thinking efforts. What a rollercoaster for you. xxx

Throwing my positive thoughts and prayers behind you and your family Trazzles.

Oh my

I didn't think I could cross any more bits of my body. Gingers have been crossed for ever, legs and arms neatly folded, hair in a plait, my earlobes are tying themselves in knots and my intestines are knitting themselves.

Clinging to a tiny hope is scary, but it is there. There is a chance, there is hope, there is a little light.

Also praying. And no he certainly does not hate you; my sons have a very different SN but they too can express their frustrations and fears towards me alone in very upsetting ways, but I have learned over many years (eldest is 13) that it's because I am, as someone above said, their haven, and their safety, and they know I will always love them no matter what. I am safe.

Hugs to you all X

I am not of the praying type bu I will send all of the positive vibes I can muster. Such a roller coaster indeed, thinking of you all. X

Am praying trazzles x

Trazzles, DD and I pray every night for you guys, will continue to. You are a legend. SPLODGE.

Sending light, love and splodges. Everything is crossed for you all. xx

I am praying for that miracle Trazzles.

Thinking positively for you and Joe.

Adding my love and prayers for your little boy and your whole family.

Have everything crossed for Joe! And continuing to send him lots of love and best wishes. xxx

OMG - that's a lifeline isn't it. How on earth do you remain 'grounded' after hearing that though :( I actually think it was a bit of a mistake for them to tell you tbh - if it does happen then you'd still have been over the moon, but now if it doesn't you have further to fall :(

Everysingle fibre of my body is crossed xxx

I am praying for little Joseph.

Praying for Joe's miracle. Gingers crossed.

everything crossed {{{ }}}

I'm glad to had a good weekend and I hope that you managed to enjoy the sunshine.

Joe's strength, perseverence and charachter and your love for him continue to shine through.

Of course they had to tell us, it wouldn't be right not to. But yes, I really wish they hadn't. It has given me the ability to dream again. I have to keep repeating to myself that this isn't going to happen. It will have spread, or grown. I am forcing myself to picture the consultant telling us that the cancer is still there.

Joe has been extra-adorable today. He has been in such a good mood - very free with his cuddles and he even woke up in a good mood (very unusual!). He has gazed a lot in to my eyes and told me how much he loves me and that I am gorgeous . He's such a charmer!

He had his face painted for the first time ever as well - a tiger - and was very chuffed with himself after that.

Glad he has been extra adorable. You do know tomorrow will be double contrariness don't you, as he's storing it up (if my experience is anything to go by)
I know what you mean, I am almost sorry you've been given this tiny amount of hope. Praying for it with everything I have got, but oh it must be so hard telling yourself not to hope.

He sounds so loveable. Tiger face paint: winner. YOu can buy little kits to use at home, made by a company called Snazaroo IIRC. Many hours of messy fun but don't go near the sofas

Glad today was a good day - he sounds gorgeous

Praying for that miracle xx

unlurking to say that I'm praying for your miracle! xx

I have everything crossed. Everything.

Hoping against hope for that miracle for Joe, but completely understand that you have to try to manage your own expectations to protect yourself. Thinking of you all x
