2 years!?

It's true. It's exactly two years since the proverbial punch in the gut. I have to admit, there were times (I call them dark moments) when I privately wondered how we would get through 3 1/2 years of treatment. I wish that I could have had a tiny glimpse into the future...that I could have seen Hayden playing hockey or even just being a little bugger. We've come so far.

At this fall's family camp, a friend reminded me that just last year Hayden had to take one step at a time to climb the waterside. It brought back a mental flash of our frail little bald boy. But at that time, we were thrilled because....we had come so far.

Cancer changes everything. Everything looks different when the world is sideways. We appreciate everything more....especially the family and friends who are helping us through this. Thank you.

To celebrate this momentous occasion, we will brave the snow to stand in line for hours to be among the first Winnipeggers who see the latest Harry Potter movie. Woo hoo!
