March 17th 2005, will be a day that will never be forgotten in our family. It was the day our three month old baby boy Keelin was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma.
Neuroblastoma is a cancer that forms on your nerve tissue. It normally begins in the adrenal glands, which sit atop your kidneys. It may also begin inyour neck, chest or spinal cord. The cancer often begins in early childhood sometimes while the baby is still in utero.
Our heart and love goes out to his brilliant pediatrican, surgeon, oncologist, and radioligists for all there hard work and love and dedication for making our baby healthy again. This March 17th, 2010 we celebrate Keelin being five years Cancer free. An amazing feeling that can't even be put into words.
In the US, more children die of childhood cancer than any other disease. Please make a donation on my behalf to support childhood cancer research so that all children diagnosed with cancer will have a better chance for a cure.
