    I don't like it when bad things happen to little kids...life just isn't fair. :(
    But kids are resilient so here's to hoping he can kick this and carry on to have a good, long, happy life!

    Praying for Bobby & family...

    A few years ago fellow TW member Ziffen('s) niece Hannah went through this horrible disease which started when she was 5 then relapsed when she was 10. She will soon be turning 15 and in good health praise the Lord! Be encouraged & strong for your buddy as they'll need you.

    I'm posting a link to a journal Hannah's Mom kept throughout this ordeal... it will make you cry & shout for joy as she bares her soul. You'll find there's an amazing network for families going through this and the journal will reveal Bobby & family aren't alone in this fight.

    God, im not sure if I dare read. I get so damn emotional......But I will! Im so glad Hannah kicked its ass! I know Bobby will do the same

    I was doing some research last night and it looks like 80-90% of kids make it thru this so thats a positive! He shouldnt have to go thru this, he should be playing with monster trucks and action figures, not doing freakin chemo at the age of 4 :(

    Thanks again for all the kind words gentlemen

    Yeah, my friend was mentioning this as well. The rate of recovery in kids is incredible. I am amazed at how quickly my 2 y.o. bounces back from stuff.
    Age is on his side.

    Oh yeah it'll do that to you. I'd check Hannah's journal a couple times a week and many times I'd have a lump in my throat the size of a softball with tears running down my cheeks. Other times I was fist-pumping in celebration of a good report.

    You know those days when life's kickin' your butt and you start a pity party for yourself... take a day in the life of Hannah or her mom/family and things don't seem near as bad.

    This is great news! Continued prayers for Bobby & family...
