Update on Connor.... "ALL CLEAR"!!!
Connor finished his last chemo on January 19. After 3 weeks off, the time for the final MRIs to signify "Treatment Complete" arrived yesterday and today. Was an agonizing 'pins & needles' waiting period for us all. The news we've been wanting to hear has come........."Connor is ALL CLEAR...No evidence of disease"!!! After 15 months of: brain surgery, 30 proton beam radiation treatments, many physical therapy sessions, MRIs, hospital stays, and 48 weeks of chemo, Connor has finished treatments and can try to be a kid again.
He will have a lot of physical therapy sessions to help with the neuropathy in his legs and feet. And he'll still have MRIs every 3 months for at least the next 2 years. But at least his body won't be subjected to round after round of chemo. It has taken a toll on his body and he welcomes the future with no more chemo.
Overjoyed with the results and so proud of Connor. He battled this head on from Day 1 and he never complained once. He just knew he was going to battle this like the little warrior he is. Connor went "Beastmode" and is looking forward to a bright future.
Thanks to everyone who has supported Connor and our family every step of the way. Family and friends helped us so much. And Hobby Insider is family to me. You don't know how much that support has meant to us.
On behalf of myself, my wife Kathy, brothers, Garrett, Grant, and Trevor, and especially Connor...we thank you with all of our hearts.
