Radiation Day 20

Thursday Feb. 23rd They were so so SO behind today. They didn't get Atticus until 10am. Thankfully he was in a goofy mood and that he was super duper funny taking Daddy's diet coke away and hiding it! When they came to get him and gave him the sedative he said, "I'm getting hard as teeth!" He woke up fast again so we were out the door pretty quick. Today's weather was BEAUTIFUL and we took full advantage of it. We kicked the ball around in the backyard. Took the will barrow down the alley looking for treasure then decided to go for a wagon ride. It is so fun having Atticus back! Speaking of having him back, we are so blessed. Like really really blessed. Joanna (the little girl diagnosed with DIPG 3 days after Atticus) is still not able to walk in fact, she is now in a wheel chair. It breaks our hearts. It breaks our hearts and makes us realize how truly blessed we are. Atticus has been given so many miracles. We all have. Thank you for all your prayers. My heart breaks for Nancy, her mommy. I can see the sadness in her eyes as she watches Atticus. She asks me, "Does he always have this energy?" "Has he always walked this well?" Which he hasn't but it's hard for her to see that. She didn't see Atticus in the beginning. Please please pray that Joanna gets some mobility back. It's crazy to think that we are coming to the end of our radiation journey. 10 more treatments. That's it. Just ten more treatments. Its has been one crazy ride. Atticus is the bravest boy I have ever known. He is amazing. I'm the luckiest person to be his mom. We have had great day after great day after great day and I love it!

Wood working with Daddy.

Chunks new favorite toy. He thinks he's pretty big stuff.

Why is it babies have to eat everything!!

Enjoying the BEAUTIFUL day.

Yes Texas summers get HOT but you sure can't beat an 80 degree February day!!

"Gooooooooooo Cougars!" Atticus got ANOTHER AWESOME package. This time it was from the BYU basketball team. His exact words were, "Oh. My. Goodness! We have to call daddy!"

In addition to the signed basketball and poster, he got a BB shirt and signed basketball cards!

He also got a package from a stranger that is now a friend (that's what we like to call you loved ones that we have never met!). He was very excited about his neck pillow! Thank you!!
