We had a great Halloween. Brooks was the best Elvis ever. I should have
found a contest to enter his picture in. Everyone
loved his costume.
Gentry had a great time trick-or-treating. He was so funny because he liked it to pick his choice of candy and he would only take 1. He wouldn't take more than one piece, even if they tried to give him more than one. Brooks is crawling all over the place and pulling himself up to a standing position. His goal every day is to be wherever Gentry is. He is still off the charts in height, 30 inches long! Gentry is still responding well to his treatment. He is very tired of taking medicine but knows that he gets to see Shamu over spring break so that has been a good incentive. He has a spinal tap coming up in 2 weeks so we are starting to get prepared for that. Gentry is also getting very excited about the holidays. Every commercial that comes on tv, he shouts out "I want that". Half the time he doesn't even know
what the toy is. We are so happy that he is responding well to all the medicines and chemotherapy. We are approaching the 1 year anniversary of his diagnosis and cannot believe all that has happened. Looking back I think to myself, how did we do it? We still have a long road ahead of us but we know that we have such amazing support from family and friends. Keep up the prayers for Gentry!
