Reality Check

So life is good, good but crazy… and with Liam doing well it’s easy to forget the realities of cancer. But nothing like visiting a few Carepages (some good updates, some not so great at all) and the discovery of a Case Report (yes that’s Liam – Viewer Discretion is advised) to snap you right back to reality.


Cancer sucks.


The only thing keeps me grounded is thinking of ways to keep supporting any and every cause we come across

So no sleep for me last night, the case report is pretty intense, if you can make it though it, you’ll understand why. It was written last summer while Liam was undergoing radiation. I’ll probably get fined for posting it without permission.

Bottom line... you're probably already doing so, but if you are not, find a way to help someone in need.

Fall Update








So here we are, into October already...the school year going well so far and of course, Meg's favorite time of the year... October 15th (first day of basketball for me).
Just a few updates from the last couple of weeks:
Owen and Jack are having fun in soccer on Saturday mornings (although we have had a few rain outs already). Liam is doing great, talking more and putting some phrases together like "mommy more", "green ball", "big bus", "mommy sit". For those of you with kids, it must have been one LOOOOOONG weekend last weekend with all the rain. Let's just say the rainy day "fun box" ran out around very early saturday afternoon at the Lasbury-Casey house. Liam decided to help us paint Owen and Jack's new room; he thought it would be cute to step in the paint and then walk accross the rug upstairs. Then for more fun, he decided to stuff a whole role of toilet paper down the toilet, clog it and watch the water come gussing out from the first floor all the way to the basement!
As for Troy, he is continuing to grow and is probably about two pounds less than Liam right now. His first official word is "bubble" and then followed by "uh o".

We have been packing in our weekends with lots to do. In September we did the Run of Hope Walk in Boston, the Walk Now for Autism in Rhode Island, managed to get in a family picture and individuals of the boys (except Liam because he was NOT in the best mood), big yard sale at Nana and Papa's house today. We took this opportunity to clean alot of junk out of the house.

Well I think that is all for now, getting ready for soccer. One more picture......Liam on the potty - wow!
