I tried to be patient waiting to hear from Pittsburgh about the trial for Kai, but by Wednesday I was pretty restless. I started going a little nutty emailing our NP rambling emails about the different treatments and how Kai is doing and how I still don’t know what to do.

Yesterday was Kai’s official birthday. My little baby boy is 2! It’s hard to believe he has only been in my life for two years.
