Does anyone remember my little Blue-eyed Joseph? Bad news and I could use some support, please.

[Trazzletoes]

My 6 year old, Joseph, was diagnosed with stage 4 high risk neuroblastoma cancer when he was 3. He had 14 months off treatment and then had no evidence of disease for 2.5 years. We were starting to imagine a future for us all and make plans.

We found out a fortnight ago that he has relapsed. 5 year survival rates from here are less than 5%. Possibly even less than 1%, I can't remember. Chemo starts tomorrow, I am struggling to understand how this has happened to us again (because there is no reason) and how on earth we are going to make it through this. I know it's by taking a minute at a time, but it feels so huge right now.

I am so very, very sorry to read this xxxx

I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful Joseph. I've followed since your first post. You have been an incredible mum to him through the toughest thing a parent can face.

So sorry to hear the last update :(

I'm so sorry, and so sad. I've thought about Joseph and Trazzles so often over the past few years. Lots of love.

I'm so terribly sad to read this. Thinking of trazzles and family.

can't think of any words just sending love x

Oh my word, what terrible news. Thoughts with all the Trazzles at this time xx

So sorry. Thinking of all of you.

Such sad news. Sending love and strength to Trazzles at the time xx

So very sorry to read about Joseph, I followed Trazzle's threads closely from beginning but even more closely when my son was diagnosed with neuroblastoma. He sounded like an amazingly brave little boy and Trazzles wrote beautifully. Thinking of you all and wishing you strength, x

Oh 😔
I just have no words.
Much love to the trazzles

I am so sorry. Thinking of you

So very sorry to read this. Thinking of the Trazzles family at this time. Thank you The1stMrsDeV.

I am so very sorry to read the update about Joseph. He and the Trazzles family have often been in my thoughts over the years.

Oh no trazzles I'm so sad to hear this. Your heart must be breaking. I also remember the photo you posted years ago of your lovely Joseph. Wishing you and the rest of the trazzles strength, courage and love for the tough times ahead.

So sorry to hear of your loss.

Oh no, what devastating news. I'm so, so sorry to hear that you've lost your beautiful boy. Wishing you and your family all the love and strength you need to take care of each other during this terrible time 💐

I saw this in Active and knew. I am sorry beyond words. As a cancer person myself I don't like the word fought, but he and the rest of your family showed great courage.
Thank you for letting us know MrsDV.

Sending love to the trazzles

Truly sorry to hear this devastating news.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I followed this from the very beginning. Can't believe it's ended so sadly.

Oh Trazzles. That is so hard for you all. Your gorgeous boy, I feel so sad for you. At some point you will hopefully find a little comfort that he's no longer ill and in pain.
Winstons wish is a good charity to help with the bereavement of a child. Sending hugs and prayers.

So sorry to hear this - much love to Trazzles

Trazzles, for each one that has posted there are so many more people that are thinking of you all at this time. Your love for Joseph has always stood out, and you are the most amazing mum he could have had. Lots of people on here may not post but hold you and gorgeous Joseph in their thoughts.
