It has been 1 year since Jamey was diagnosed. He went into remission after the first week on chemo so next week will be a 1 year anniversary for Jamey being in remission!! What a year!

Since he went off Steroids this week, he has been doing very well. His blood counts are up and is energy level is great. He started to take gym classes so he can properly workout at the gym by himself. He really likes going to the gym with me and feel like a big guy. He is doing 40 push-up and 40 Sit-ups every night and has improved a lot. We try to keep him active as much as possible as he is not doing any organized sports now except when he helps me coach Noah’s soccer team. He actually does some of the warm-ups and games with us. I think he likes that too. Coby also gets to practice with us; he is great. Check out our team website (Noah's soccer team).

Summer is almost here and we can't wait to go to the pool and get some sun again. Last year we had to deal with the broviak and changing of Jamey's dressing which was hard on him. It required constant care and he did not like going to the pool because of that. The kids are signed up for camp and it looks like Jamey will be going to Camp Simcha which is a sleep away camp for Jewish kids with cancer in upstate NY, as well as (hopefully) to the Imus Ranch, which is a working ranch for kids with cancer and other blood disorders. I think he is excited.

Will post again soon.
