Just thought I would share this milestone with everyone. This is my 17 year old. My youngest boy. 12 years ago they told me to get my things in order. I only had a couple times where I thought this beast had me, it was when I let fear take over. Now 12 years later and mostly fearless, I still have check ups every three months and catscans, and MRI's probably more than I should. But I thank God and my doctors that they are watching. Just wanted to say hell ya, my son has one more year of high school and is turning 17 this week. I have 3 great boys, a husband and I am still breathing! I still have all my troubles with bills and side effects etc... but its nothing after looking at these pictures!
Hugs to all!

    You've Done Well
    A proud moment and how wonderful you're here to witness it:)

    Understand the effects and collateral damage leftover from your fight, Cass - but I'm glad you are here for your family....I'm sure they agree wholeheartedly.

    Keep making it a "great day."

    Great Milestone!
    I recall the great feeling when our youngest of three girls graduated grade 12! Phew!! It was the end of 39 parent-years of public school! Congrats on a job well done!

    A great picture! And what a lucky guy!

    Prom
    Wow what a good looking son you have. I hope he had a blast at his prom. That young gal has such a beautiful smile and the two of them looking so happy, well that must make you very happy also.

    Take care - Tina
