Update....

Well, I talked to Sabrina yesterday afternoon on the phone and she sounded pretty good despite everything that is going on. I could hear little Michael in the background talking and he just sounded soo sweet. She said, that he was doing pretty good, just kinda sore from being poked at with needles and having the bone marrow takin. He went into surgery this morning to have a Port a Cath put in, so that when he get his Chemo treatments, they will just put it into the Port a Cath and not have to sick him with I.V. needles every month. He also, was having a spinal tap done today and receiving his 1st Chemo treatment. They will have to stay in the hospital for about a week, to make sure that he takes to the Chemo ok and that he is able to keep his food down and not get too sick from it. He will have to get a Chemo treatment every month for 3 yrs.. They have a long tough road ahead of them and she would really appreciate all the prayers they can get. The dr.'s said, that the survival rate for beating this is about 85-90% and I think those are great odds and he will def. pull thru this. She just wrote me a text message to tell me that Michael is out of surgery and in ALOT of pain. I just wanted to keep ppl. updated on the latest....

Thank you,
Ash

my gosh i still can't believe that. I know this is going to be so tough on them, but i know they can pull through this as a family. You need to tell her to start a blog so we can all keep up with him! Make sure you tell her I am praying for her

I am praying for your friend's precious son! You should make buttons for the blog that remind people to pray for Michael. I would definitely put a button on my blog!
