The "Old Alex"

I just received a great email from a mom who has a son in Alex's class. It really made our evening.

"Hi Sara-
I just wanted to tell you that Alex really seemed like the 'old' Alex today at school!! He was hangin' with his new(?) buddy Chase, and they were having a great time together. The last couple of times he has been at school he seemed a bit tentative to me, but he sure seemed like he was Back today! It was great!"

I can't be there every minute - and it's so nice to know that other people are watching out for him, and can share the good stories with us...

Tomorrow, we have another Clinic appointment. Alex's Chemo Pal is going to meet us there - it should be nice!

  1. Hey Sara,
    We thought of you guys yesterday. Well, we usually do everyday, anyway. But we were at the mall- specifically to play in the play area, get Jamba juice and Sees candy. Center court they had Make A Wish fundraiser going on. The kids both put money in the jar and got big magnetic stars. We like to think that we are helping send Alex on his wish trip. It made my eyes teary. Lakyn looked really proud as she put her money in. I told the lady , very briefly about Alex, and Lakyn had to tell her his name.
    We love you guys. I know your life has been turned upside down. And we wish there was more for us to do. We miss you guys and playing with you. Kolby is almost all better. We really hope to see you guys soon.
    Love, Taegen, Lakyn, and Kolby

  2. Good morning, Sara! It's so wonderful to read people's comments and see how much love there is out there for you guys! We all think of you every day and keep you in our prayers. We, too, wish there was more we could do- it's hard being so far away. But you are always in my thoughts and close to my heart. We love you!
    Charlie, Tracy and the boys
