The Beginning

On September 18, 2010, Avery was just an average little boy celebrating his 3rd birthday with a bounce house, bounce slide, cake and ice cream. We had a great time, however, a few days later things went south. He began running a fever of 103F we took him to the doctor. Well an abrasion on his left elbow threw up red flags and concerned the doctors enough to admit him into the hospital to start IV antibiotics. In the hospital blood work was done 3 times all coming back abnormal. Now here we are battling Leukemia... but all is well... BECAUSE WE HAVE AN AWESOME GOD!!! Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia is the most common of childhood Leukemia with a success rate of 80-90%. Prayer, Prayer, Prayer :)
