Taking the fight to the enemy

Today, with his mommy and daddy by his side, Jack fought back. He received his first round of chemotherapy drugs orally, injected into his portacath, and injected into his cerebrospinal fluid through a spinal tap. When I spoke with Anneli this afternoon, Jack was resting in Damond's arms. He had eaten, which was a good sign, and although he was a little fussy, we agreed that he had good reason to be!

Eleanor Roosevelt said that "you gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do." Today the Bailey family did just that.
