Make counts, will travel

Monday, Dec 18-Friday, Dec 22

Wil's counts were low on Monday need to be up to 800 to travel on Friday.

Happy to report Wil has not thrown up today!! (And yes I realize I probably just jinxed myself

😳) Tomorrow we need his numbers to start rebounding (aka MAKE SOME BLOOD) so he can get rid of this continual headache and enjoy the chemo free week.

How very fitting that today is the Winter Solstice! Starting tomorrow the amount of sunlight gets longer, it doesn’t happen all at once and there are so many cold and dark days ahead, but we know summer is coming. Very fitting as today is Wil’s last day in frontline treatment. We know he has 3 long years ahead of him but it is coming. I am equal parts excited and terrified!

Last I heard Frank Cusumano is airing Wil’s story on channel 5 at 10:00 tonight. I am hoping that it gives anyone struggling hope for the future. Happy Winter Solstice!

Make A Wish soccer game

It has been awhile since I updated here. It is much easier to do from Facebook if you can follow his story there. CLICK HERE Wil has been struggling with the effects of chemotheraphy. The chemo has not been kind to his stomach, gallbladder, liver, or head. The good day was his MAKE A WISH faculty soccer game. March 15, 2018 Our family is humbled by the support of Wil and the Make A Wish foundation. Thank you from the bottom of our overflowing hearts, we love being a FLYER! -Thank you to Lori Condellire, Susan Dooling, & Beth Johnston for sharing pictures! A few members of the StepUp of St. Louis Teen Coalition presented a check from their budget for $100 to be used for Wil's Wish fundraising at the soccer game to day! So cool to see these kids in action. Way to go Truman Middle School for organizing such a fun afternoon. # wilswarriors # stepupstl

Breathing is NOT optional-Saturday

Saturday update: Wil had an allergic reaction last night and stopped breathing. The medical team and Kristen Josephine were amazing they bagge d him and gave him shots to open his airway. It was terrifying. He is shaken but doing ok. Very grateful for the amazing staff at the PICU.

ALL in for Wil
