Updates on Silas

Our Christmas miracle is that our prayers have been heard! Silas was able to get into the cancer hospital in Boston immediately when most patients have a 3 month waiting list to been seen. Silas was seen as soon as they could drive into Boston, have all his tests and lab work done and they devised a treatment program in the first three days they were there. He started his first round of Chemotherapy on Thursday and as far as I have heard he reacted very well. Hopefully he is coming home today for a few days. Then it's back for the second session of chemotherapy. After 4 sessions they'll take a break, then repeat a second round. If all of that goes well, then they'll remove what they can of the tumors. Then hopefully after 2 more rounds of chemo he'll be done. Please continue to pray for him and his family. Violet has been such a trooper but I know it must be difficult for her to go through 3-4 days without seeing her mommy and baby brother.
