Loving Souls Of Childhood Cancer
TODAY
Outside my window,a new day I see
and only I can determine
what kind of day it will be.
It can be busy and sunny,
laughing and gay,
or boring and cold, unhappy and grey.
My own state of mind is the
determining key,
for I am the only person I let myself
be.I can be
thoughtful and do all I can to help,
or be selfish and think just of myself.
I can enjoy what I do and make
it seem fun,or
gripe and complain and make it
hard on someone.
I can be patient with those who
maynot
understand,or
belittle and hurt them as much as I can.
But I have faith in myself,
and believe what I say,
and I personally intend to make
the best of each day.
 
THIS IS A PICTURE OF MY SON
MYKEL Before and After
This page is
dedicated to my son Mykel. While we may have been lucky with him being diagnosed
with one of the most curable types of cancer I know that some aren't so lucky.
We found out that the lump Mykel had on his right arm was Hodgkin's Lymphoma on
October 3rd 1997. This was two day after he had the lump removed. We were
completely clueless. The doctors kept telling us that it was a non - cancerous
lump. Mykel went through 6 months of chemotherapy. It took him a total of 7
months to get 6 months worth of treatment. There were a lot of hospital trips
and admits that we begin to feel like we lived there. Thank god for the people
who work there. Children's Hospital is the most wonderful Hospital I have ever
been through. They have a way of making you feel at home and make u feel
comfortable with leaving your child's life in their hands. My son has now been
in remission since May 22nd 1998.
This page is being made so that others
know that there is always someone here for them no matter how far away or what
the problem is. I will do my best just to listen and help if I can. Anyone who
has to deal with childhood cancer knows how hard it is to go through. This is a
type of thing that effects everyone around u It changes a lot of things. I would
like to help if I can. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to
email me. Thank you for visiting Mykel's page.
This is an update on Mykel. He
is now 13 yrs old and doing great. He had just finished the 6th grade and also
races 1/4 midget cars on the weekends. He is now on his 6th season of that and
he is loving it. The picture posted above is when Mykels little brother
Dylen was born. I will be posting a new picture of Mykel soon. Mykel now has 3
little brothers Nicholas 12, Kaleb 10 & Dylen 3 and a sister Maddisen 2. We are
very proud of Mykel. He has been through alot and for the most part always keeps
a good attitude. June 24, 2005
