Back in the Flow

Sorry it has been so long since the last update - it was a busy summer and a hectic first few weeks of school and activities.  To sum it all up, we had a great summer and it was topped off with clean scans on our July visit to Sloan Kettering.  Beyond clean scans, Noah continues to grow and develop much like a 10 should.  We are doing a few follow-up tests here in Phx on his pulmonary function to ensure his breathing capacities are within normal range.

There have been some excellent childhood cancer awareness events over the past few months - including Stand Up for Cancer and National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month - including a $250K Pepsi grant currently in vote to help fund less toxic treatment options for children stricken by cancer.  Please visit the below website and vote:

Both kids are playing soccer this fall and really looking forward to it.  So far, Sarah is enjoying 2nd grade and Noah, 4th.  Noah has also taken up Student Council, Cub Scouts, and band - no doubt, a busy schedule.

With hope and love,

The Nelsons
