Well folks, we had a much needed celebration this past weekend. It was Rohan's 5th birthday, and we decided that combined with making it to Long Term Maintenance, it required a bit more than your run of the mill kid's birthday party.
To start, Rohan had decided he wanted to have a bowling party. So I drove around a few weeks ago trying to find a bowling alley that wasn't icky or next to a strip bar or both. Finally found one. Rohan and fourteen of his friends bowled for an hour before sitting down to pizza and ice-cream cake.
Afterwards, we had invited everyone back to the house for drinks and food. In order to ensure that the kids as well as the parents had a nice time, we hired some party entertainers for the children. As a result, the adults were able to be just that for a few hours. It was fun and exhausting and exactly what this family needed.
I still can't believe he's five - a toddler no more but a little boy. Here are the pictures.
The Prologue
Since Rohan cannot explain what is happening to him, I have decided to start this blog as way to translate to all of you how he is feeling and doing throughout his treatment for leukemia. I also want it to be a kind of record for Rohan when he is older and able to read. With that said, there may at times be postings that might not make sense to you but will make sense to him later.I hope this blog helps all of you who care about Rohan and us better understand the journey. I already know it will help me to have more clarity while I make this journey with him.
