Andrew Aidan, Our Fighting Warrior!

Andrew Aidan and his dog Beemer have been the pride and joy of their parents, Michelle & Roi ever since they were born. AA loved to take walks outside, play with his best friend Beemer and his Thomas the Tank Engine set of toys along with any other plane, helicopter, car, truck toy he can get his hand on. For those that have met him, they saw the soul of a mature adult in the body of a sweet, loving boy with a beautiful smile. He bravely battled an aggressive, inoperable, rare form of brain tumor called Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumor or AT/RT that spread to his spine as well. This type of cancer effects less than 50 children a year in this country. He has been an inspiration to us and we are sure he will be a vessel of motivation to those in similar situations. Thank you God for protecting our boy!

Thank You!
Andrew Aidan (R.I.P.) , Michelle (Mother), Roi (Dad) & Beemer

Day 3 Update

What a day full of ups and downs. On a good note, AA had no vomitting or diarrhea today, still eating and drinking even if it is a little, although he was napping during Santa Clause visit he left him a big nike bag full of toys, AA was also was napping during the carolers visit but they took a pic next to his bedside,we also took a professional family pic. On a not so happy note, AA is not walking on his own since yesterday, we also found out that the Spinal study they did yesterday/today was done wrong and now it must ALL be repeated again next week which means he can NOT get the chemo injected into his spine tomorrow. Really sucks cause now he will not only have another lumbar puncture and be put under anesthesia 3 more times but also have to be admitted again probably in two weeks to get the chemo. Trying to look at the positive of this and realize I rather they have messed up than to have something more wrong with AA's spine and besides at least we will be home for Christmas since he will probably get discharged on Saturday if all goes well.
