Just wanted to let you all know we had a fantastic Christmas. It was extra, extra special for all of us this year because even though Aidan is facing cancer head on-he is doing it with the love and prayers of many, many wonderful people. We are so blessed to have so many unselfish givers this year and YOU have made Aidan one happy little boy.
Of course, we almost didn't get to be home Christmas night! We went in the 24th for a platelet transfusion and ended up staying until 9:30 that night. Aidan had an allergic reaction and Dr. Linzmeyer checked us right in. They ended up giving him a blood transfusion and we were freaked. In the hospital, time stands still so when they say you'll leave in a little while-we know know that could mean tomorrow! By the time we got home, we were exhausted from the stress of it all and quickly got Aidan to bed so Mom could get the rest of the wrapping done!!!
We opened presents with Nana and Papa(Susan and Paul) who brought a computer box full of beautiful gifts from Papa's department at Fluor Daniel SC, Uncle Paul Jr and Mojgan,Uncle Nick and Dad (Luis)who came back with a large suitcase of gifts from Vought Aerospace. Holy cow Aidan was beside himself with joy. Christmas morning made up for the chemo and sleepless nights and will carry us thru for the next couple of months worth of hospital stays!!!
A very special thanks to everyone at Fluor and Vought Aerospace for your big hearts and amazing generosity. We are overwhelmed with gratitude-thank you...
