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

Food For Thought...

AA's day was pretty good today...We were at Sloan today to get his mediport lines changed and to get some blood work done. Gotta say he did pretty good. He ate a good amount of food today and was in pretty good spirits. He has been sleeping for a bit and here I am thinking...thinking I was very happy for him and was glad to see him show off his million dollar smile again on a number of ocassions. He has been a true champ throughout this whole process. Loved he is, beyond measure.
Thinking...about how I wished all of this could have been different. I only hope that God has a miracle up his sleeve. Well I came across this quote that rang true to me and just wanted to share it with you. Have a great evening everyone and we will keep the updates coming. Stay true to yourself, appreciate those who are strong enough to stay by your side and enjoy every single moment as much as you can....
Roi

" Solitude is the profoundest fact of the human condition. Man is the the only being who knows he is alone and the only one who seeks...To realize himself in another ".

Octavio Paz (1914-1998)
