Really OT: But I'd like to share if I may....

Awww.
Sitting here at work (on a quick break) with tears in my eyes.

Cancer really sucks.

Lots of positive energy being sent Aleck's way.

Consider it done.  What a brave boy to be surviving such a horrible disease,and with a smile on his face.   Cancer is the plague of our era and affects every single one of us-most of us multiple times throughout our lives.  A woman from my mother's church died this past week from cancer.  I was following her journey on FB and the day before she died, a picture was posted of her in her hospital bed- face swollen from Chemo, and no hair, but she had a bouquet of flowers in her lap and a smile that made me question how someone who so sick could push through and fight everyday, with a smile.  If there is anything positive that  can come from sickness, it is that these people are nothing short of a miracle in perseverance and an inspiration to everyone who hears their story.  I'll definately keep Aleck in my prayers for complete healing and the strength to carry on his battle.

Hey Karen,

All my best to Aleck and his family, they must really be testing their strength going through this tough and scary time.  Keep us posted on how he's doing would you?

Cathy

I certainly will - thank you for caring.

I will be thinking warm, postive thoughts for him! It's great that he got to meet the great one! As much as it a bad situation, it's good to know he is in the BEST place possible and receiving the BEST care possible, and I truly believe this, because I can't speak highly enough for every indidividual who works at Sick Kids and I hope he gets better!  

wow, look at Aleck's face in that picture, made my heart all warm, seems so happy to have Wayne by his side.

Positive thoughts for him for sure!

Give us an update k?
Nathalie

Absolutely :)  Just waiting on an email or text from his dad.  Thanks.

Positive thoughts sent their way.  The big C effin sucks especially when it strikes a child.

I know.  We all have a heavy heart today.  Really hoping that Tom has the strength to email us tonight to let us all know what's going on.
