On February 25th, 2007, Momma posted that for some reason, she had this feeling that we had several more big weeks ahead of us. And she was right. Though, none of us would have thought it would have turned out this way. Those several big weeks turned into 2 years and 8 months!
But yesterday, James took his very last chemotherapy pill at 7:10pm and is now officially OFF TREATMENT! In a way, I am so thrilled, for James, and me and our family. But it brings more unknowns... and unknowns are.... well, unknown. But not for God and that is full of comfort. Before we close the chapter on leukemia, I would like to share some pictures of James before, during and after treatment. GO JAMES!!!

As I put this 'in review' post together I saw so many other pictures I would love to have shared with you. If you want to see more pictures and to read James' journey through treatment, the best place to start is in February of 2007 and then finish up here.

'GOOD JOB' Hannah (as your Mom would say). Well written piece and the photos are, of course, adorable. I couldn't get the three that Daniel took to expose themselves.. just little boxes w/x's in the corner. Anyone else have that problem? I revisited the old blogs/photos too. We praised God for James' chemo ending in SS this morning and prayed for the upcoming appts.
Love you - and more for all... Nona
Well, we think we have fixed it, but can't tell for sure. Can you check again?
Good post. That is exciting that the long journey is over! You are right, life is full of unknowns! I think it is good that we can't see the future! I would probably be a basket case! :>) Missed seeing part of you at church today. Stephanie, I will e-mail you tomorrow about the schmop (however you spell it!)
Got them this time - precious photos. A 'Good Job' to Daniel too!!! :*) (I know he's a professional) Am sending the link to Claudia M. for her to view.
Hugs - love you all, Nona
