On August 22, 2006, my 3-year-old son was diagnosed with leukemia.  Since that time, he has undergone numerous spinal taps and bone marrow biopsies and several rounds of chemotherapy.  Thankfully, he is in remission and doing well.  During his treatment, our lives have been made a little easier by a group known as Friends of Kids With Cancer.  While there are other groups out there that grant once in a lifetime wishes to children, this group focuses on helping these kids in their daily lives as they face treatments for their illness.  It is truly a remakable group.  If you are interested in learning more, please visit their site at www.friendsofkids.com.
