From Bad to Worse

Our week did NOT get better.


Wednesday, April 4
Back in the ER after a scary morning where his blood sugar crashed (Debbie Deutschmann Klinedon’t know how u do this as this was a terrifying first for us) glucose and IV fluids brought his color back. 

GI Doctor is on his way to talk about his decreased gallbladder function. He is down 26 pounds in 2.5 weeks. Hoping he gets some relief soon.


Wednesday afternoon
Wil is in the pediatric intensive care unit with a few things going on. Looks like they will remove his gallbladder in the morning as chemo has not been kind. His HIDO scan on Monday showed decreased gallbladder function which is contributing to the puking/not eating. His blood sugars have stabilized and they are working on getting him hydrated. Say it with me #chemosucks
Thanks for all the 🙏🏼 and well wishes. We are very blessed.



Thursday morning 7:30 am
He’s in surgery now... send love.

Thursday afternoon
11:00 am Thursday
Wil is back in his room resting. Our surgeon as always did an amazing job. He has five new scars to add to his battle wounds.

Thank you for the prayers, love, and positive energy. Please pay that kindness forward today, especially if you love someone who works the medical field.#wilswarriors

Friday
Friday 3:00pm update, Wil is home. Thanks again for all the well wishes. Hopefully he will be able to rest at home and he’ll let me post some pictures soon! For now pain meds are our friend.


Saturday Morning
Rough night of pain, incisions and headache, but still no puking. Longest streak of no puking in 12 weeks! (Knock on wood)
Sonny, our dog, is happy he is home!

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

Coaches vs Cancer

Hard to say how proud I am of this kid. Wil received the 2017 Stephanie Phillips Survivorship Award for outstanding courage and leadership in the fight against cancer. Huge Thanks to Coaches vs Cancer STL. We support their mission of raising awareness and funding. Coach Jason Wolfard at Lindbergh nominated Wil for this award and we are grateful to him and his entire coaching staff.  Staff at Coaches vs Cancer STL doing great work.  Yup, still proud (and let's be real, glad he didn't puke) F-L-Y...E-R-S Here is Wil's speech... Coaches vs Cancer Speech 2017 - Wil Ohler Thank you for this award.Thank you to Coach Wolfard for nominating me. Thank you to the family of Coach Stephanie Phillips, I’m sure her family misses her even more so during basketball season. Cancer is not a team anyone ever wants to join. The week before I received my leukemia diagnosis I was playing a soccer tournament in Chicago. Yes, I had been feeling bad for a very lo...
