Updates on the healing process for Naomi, who is being treated for Actue Lymphoblastic Leukemia. Please take the time to leave Naomi a supportive comment! Thank you!
Today is Naomi’s last day of chemotherapy treatment! Friends and family gathered in her family’s backyard to express gratitude for Naomi having endured the past 2 and 1/2 years with more grace, strength and courage that should be possible for such a young child. The sun was bright and the air was hot as the scent of barbeque drifted by in wafts with the occasional much-appreciated breeze. The kids’ karate school came and did a demonstration, and Naomi and a couple of girls from her hula school danced for the crowd of over 50. After the formal activities, all of the kids jumped into the water slide and the jumper. Even this big kid got into the jumper and had a great time!
While Naomi is no longer receiving chemotherapy, and is a true survivor of cancer, she will continue to be examined on a monthly basis to confirm that leukemia remains out of her system. After 5 years of living cancer free, she will officially be declared in remission. Please continue to keep her in your prayers and thoughts.
Thank you to everyone for all of the prayers, contributions, visits, email messages, letters, meals, etc., that have been extended to the family during the diagnosis and treatment of Naomi’s disease. I am humbled and grateful for your kindness, generosity and energy. May you be blessed in all things in every way.
If you advance confidently in the direction of your dreams and endeavor to live the life which you have imagined, you will meet with a success unexpected in common hours - Thoreau
