This past Sunday was Laurel's 5th birthday, which also means it was the 2nd anniversary of Elliott's cancer diagnosis. It is hard to believe that so much time has passed and just what normal has become for our family. It has been a long journey, but we finally feel like we are in the home stretch. (A really, really long home stretch). Though prednisone turns him into a wild man once a month, he is still the sweetest child I've ever encountered and we are truly blessed that Elliott has done so well during treatment.
At the bottom of the post you will find a video we took of the breathing problems that eventually led to Elliott's diagnosis.

Day -5: Laurel's 3rd birthday party, just days before he was hospitalized.
