I was at the hospital today. I was at that same hospital exactly 4 weeks ago to witness the birth of my godson. That was a very good day.
Today was not a good day. My 4 week old godson has been diagnosed with a neuroblastoma. It is on his adrenal gland and spread to his liver. Today they ran all sorts of tests. The poor thing was hooked up to IV's, catherter, pulse ox. Tomorrow he will have surgery. They will definately do a biopsy and hopefully be able to remove the tumor also. Within the week he should be starting chemo.
My mind just feels like it's full of water and it is floating. I just cannot believe that this is happening. That this poor little boy and his mother and father and sister and the rest of his family have to go through all of this. I am just trying to stay strong for M during all of this.
Oh and yes this is the same friend whose sister was murded exactly a week ago...raining...pouring...
