Sorry it's been so long...

Hello friends and family!

We apologize for not updating Garrett's blog recently... we have been busy! A few weeks ago Garrett went in for his first appointment since he had been home from surgery. Everything was healing well and they decided to stick to the schedule and admit him for his first post-surgery chemo from tuesday the 16 through friday the 18th. Although it's a bummer he had to head back to the hospital, it's great that everything is still on track and the sooner he'll be done with treatments!

A great report for you all... Garrett's pathology report from the tumor that Dr. Conrad removed was great! The tumor was completely dead when they removed it. Which means... no radiation and no more surgery!!! Such a blessing to hear : ).

Now Garrett is doing 2-3 days a week of physical therapy, watching lots of the Fifa Wold Cup games (sad for the U.S.) and is heading back to the hospital on Wednesday for a 5-day chemo session. His mobility has improved a ton and he's getting much better at using the crutches around the house. Thank you for those who have visited and spent time with Garrett : ).

Hopefully it won't be this long before we update the blog again. Have a great sunday!
