Logan had a great birthday on Friday and party on Saturday. He had lots of family including great grandparents, both sets of grandparents, many old friends and some new friends from school. He was so excited about it all. I included a picture of his cake, which shows some of our little Avenger's personality.
I was talking to Logan today about the upcoming week, and told him I would be picking him up from school early on Tuesday for chemo. Immediately I get the "awww" from him. Then the part that kills me: "I don't like it," "I hate it," and "I wish I had never had it." The past few months he has had some variation of this either toward chemo visits at the clinic, the chemo meds he takes every night, or just the cancer itself. I think he is pretty much over it (like we all are), but I just have to encourage him that there is only a year left of treatment. It will be over soon, but to a 5 year old boy, a year is just forever.
On that note, we are once again walking in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Light the Night walk. We are raising money which goes to research. If you are interested, here are the links to my fundraising page and Logan's team page. Events like these help LLS raise money for research and improve the survival rates of adults and kids just like Logan. Any help would greatly be appreciated. This is a great event that Logan has really enjoyed the past couple of years.
