Gentry did great taking his chemotherapy this past week. He didn't
complain at all
which made it much easier on us. It did start to wipe him out by Thursday night. He was really worn out on Friday. These pictures are from the Relay for Life that benefits the American Cancer Society. Gentry was the youngest survivor there. We went to the Survivors Dinner first and then we walked the Survivors lap together as a family. There were 4 teams of students and staff from my school who helped to raise money and walk all night for Gentry. The walk started at 7:oo pm and ended this morning at 7:00 am. It was a fun night and Gentry got to help light the candles that spelled out "Hope", it was very special for us. We also found out this week that we will be leaving on March 13 to go to
Orlando thanks to Make A Wish. This trip is the incentive we are using to help encourage Gentry to take his medicine. We have a spinal tap on Monday so that will be a rough day. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
