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.

Oh, and I put forward your suggestions for our supported charity and they made the short list, but CLIC Sargent was voted for. So I'm sorry, but I think CLIC Sargent have a presence in LGI (?) so I hope joe will benefit in a small way from it. :)

So thrilled to read this. Has made my day.

Big hugs to Joe and to you, tracked

Effing autocorrect!

That meant to say and to you, trazzles !!

So so pleased to read this! Go Joe!!!!

Wonderful news. x

Brilliant news!
go Joe!

Have a lovely weekend.

What fabulous news! Have a great weekend. Thinking of you all.

Lovely positive news!

What great news, enjoy celebrating this weekend!

A long time lurker here to say what wonderful news. I hope you enjoyed a well deserved cheeky wee beer last night Onwards and upwards!!

Such wonderful news so richly deserved. So delighted for you all.

Oh wow! How wonderful! Raising a glass to you all from here xxx

What encouraging news; so glad to hear

Fizzy thank you.

CLIC Sargent is a great charity. We don't have a huge amount of involvement with them but we do have some and they are fab. They also give a non means-tested grant to every family of a child diagnosed with cancer - money that is sorely needed on diagnosis for travel costs, additional childcare, food...

How wonderful that you have had such positive news. As promised, I gave blood earlier this week.

Wishing you peace love and happiness. And good health all over the place.

YAY for itsnot :)

That is fabulous news!

Such fantastic news! It's so good to hear xx

What great and unexpected news .
So pleased to hear this. x

Oh I am just so utterly delighted to read your latest news. Just brilliant!

I have watched from the beginning but never posted as I never had the words. I still don't have the words, but I have tears in my eyes and hope for you, your family and your fabulous little boy.
Thinking of you all.
Much love.

Hi Trazzles, hope you had a good weekend and gained some strength for whatever this week brings. No doubt the radiation therapy won't be a walk in the park but I hope it'll be bearable. I hope it doesn't involve any more long hospital stays and that you're still taking some comfort in the better news from last week.

Been thinking of you today trazzles and the phase to come. Back to crossing gingers and lighting my candle for Joe. Much love and

Trazzles,

I've lost touch recently but am overjoyed to hear the results of Joe's latest scans. I appreciate that there's still tough times ahead. I seem to remember that they rushed you in to get Joe measured up for his radiotherapy "just in case". Good job they did!

Hop he continues to get stronger and you get lots more happy family time together.
