Thank you for taking time to follow Meaghan's journey of healing as she battles Medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer.

Meaghan, our five year old daughter, was diagnosed early November 2009 after an MRI revealed she had a 4 cm solid tumor in her cerebellum. The tumor resection, while successful, resulted in serious complications.

Cancer is a family affair and here I try to chronicle not only Meg's journey, but our whole family's as well.

New Digs

Meaghan was transferred to Children's Hospital today for inpatient rehabilitation treatment. She will be there for a minimum of three weeks. During this time no one under the age 18 can visit her. Madison and Ethan are very angry and hurt. The policy is in place to protect patients from H1N1. While we understand the need for these types of policies, it is an emotional set back for our family.

Now we begin the coordination of her nearly daily transport for radiation treatment. It's a logistic nightmare, but it can be done.

The move is very disconcerting. We need to reorient ourselves: new facilities, new staff, new doctors, new policies, etc. We are completely exhausted.

    My favorite verse, I pass this on to you now as with keeping up with what's going on, today as I read this is the first thing that comes to mind.

    Children's hospital is awesome. The staff are some of the most supportive and caring ever.

    May G-d's blessing be upon you.
