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

Infected Mediport & It Will Be Removed Soon

Morning....
Here is the latest update. AA's mediport, the medium that is used to withdraw blood, give IV or give chemo is infected. This is the second infection it has gotten. It will be removed. It is a good time to remove it given that AA will not be receiving chemo or any type of IV anymore. If they ever need to get blood or give IV they can do it the old fashioned way. We will be heading to Sloan today where they will probably treat him with anti-biotics until he is well enough to have surgery sometime this week. This infection will explain the fevers he had again last night. The good thing is that after this is taken out he will not have any further infections caused by the mediport. I guess this is God's way of making sure we trust in him and not go back to the failed ways of medicine. We hope that the Master Repairman has a fix for this repair. As always we will keep you all updated through here.
Roi
