Joseph's ongoing journey with Neuroblastoma

[Trazzletoes]

I've lost count of the thread number now, but my 3 year old DS, Joseph, was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer called neuroblastoma last year.

Part-way through treatment he has relapsed (currently still clarifying that, but it's almost guaranteed) and at that point long-term survival is less than 5%.

He is beautiful and wonderful.

Wow. What amazing news. So so happy for you all.

That is super news about both Joe and Beazy. Am so pleased for you both.

Hooray, hooray and a thousand hoorays!

Have been checking in and thinking of you so much for the past two days. How bloody dreadful the waiting must have been for you.

Such fantastic news. I have a stupid grin on my face and something in my eyes I think xx

Another lurker here wishing you all the best. What wonderful news! Have the best weekend.

That is wonderful.

Take a deep breath and enjoy this weekend, you and P4B.

Too moved to say more, tears watering keyboard.

Lovely news . Have followed and thought if your lovely family and gorgeous boy, much love to you All

Trazzle - I'm so happy for all of you. I hope you are celebrating with a glass of bubbly tonight

I am a total lurker but have been following and posted on previous threads about your beautiful Joe. I am so thrilled for you all, what fantastic news - I am so emotional for you all! Have a lovely evening x

Amazing news trazzles! Enjoy your beer and pizza and for now you can celebrate! I am wiping away tears of joy for super Joe!

What great news, whoop whoop!! Xxx

Great news

Hope that this is the first of many parts of good news coming your way.

I gave blood a couple of weeks ago, spurred on by thoughts of Joe and how little effort/pinpricks it would cost me compared to what your little man has been going through.

I think it may have taken about 5 mins to give my pint the nurse was quite surprised at the speed If anyone is umming and ahhing over the idea I'd suggest giving it a try and then laughing at yourself about an hour later. I'd also suggest not letting your 2yo remove the plaster the next day - that was MORE painful!

Completely agree. The fingertip pinprick is the painful bit.
(if they still do that...it's been a while )
Woman at work gave me a no to call about getting the blood bus on campus. Will follow up on Monday

I clicked on the thread and almost couldn't look. I just laughed and sobbed at the same time!

Great news

Hope Trazzle is drinking wine and relaxing. I feel like a weight's off my mind - can't imagine what this must feel like for them!
Also I hope she had a witness to the phone call - am I the only onw who would be thinking "did he really call or did I dream it? Did I misinterpret what he said"?
(BTW whenever I've thought that I was always right first time, and the second guessing was wrong :o)

Fabulous news, I read all your news of Joe and never really know what to post as most people say it more eloquently or have helpful information but I couldn't not say how lovely this is to hear.
Enjoy the beer n pizza, it's a great night in the Trazzle house.

I am genuinely in tears here. Completely and utterly overjoyed and delighted and utterly amazed.

Also completely convinced that the nest of vipers have somehow caused this by waves of love and positive thoughts being wafted your way (no scientific basis for this assertion, at all. Ben Goldacre might just strike me off his mailing list)

Whatever mysterious process has caused this miracle, long may it continue so to do

:o :o :o :o :o :o :o

elfy I am soooo impressed with your blood letting, You weren't keen, but you DID IT.
Thank you for joining in the nagging gentle persuasion.

This thread makes me feel very humble and grateful.

I filled up when I read your update Trazzle! It's amazing, amazing news and I'm so happy for you all.

Wishing you all the luck and love for your journey ahead.

Amazing!

Another one here tearfully delurking at your wonderful news x

It's just bloody marvellous and I hope (and bet!) that your pizza is the sweetest thing you've ever tasted. I toasted you all when I opened my posh cider earlier - hope this all goes from strength to strength. X

This has made my day. There aren't words to express how happy I am for you all. I know there is still a long way to go, but I am overjoyed that the news today was as good as you could have asked for.

Wooooooooohooooooooo!
