My 18 month old has a rare disease in the cancer family. We were hoping for the benign version that heals on its own, but got the very aggressive, life-threatening spreading type instead. It was in his bones, skin, liver and spleen. It was resistant to the standard chemo and he developed a life-threatening complication on the second chemo. Because medical research is awesome, he got put on a new type of drug that fights the specific mutation driving the cancer with no side effects so far. He had a scan Monday and it is working! m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1958308254185509&id=1721169311232739We found out we were pregnant a week before we found out he would need chemo. The last seven months have been crazy and this pregnancy was often an afterthought. I am so excited for this news and being able to focus more on the new baby.
