Each year Logan looks forward to Camp Quality like most children do Christmas. It's a solid week of spoil-him-rotten fun just for children undergoing cancer treatment or recently in remission. This is his 3rd year attending camp, and when we got the news Friday that he had relapsed, we knew it would adversely affect his camping experience this week. Eric and I decided to go ahead and send him to camp on Sunday as planned, however we will need to pick him up early on Wednesday (2 and a half days early) for him to start chemo in Kansas City. He was sad to have to leave early, but he was also happy that he would get a few days at camp rather than none. Here are a few photos from camp so far:
Our good friend drove Logan to camp drop off in her convertible. We don't let a little thing like rain stop a wonder boy from a joy ride!
After check in they boarded the Party Bus for a rock'n ride to camp.
WATCH OUT LOGAN!
Hugs and kisses goodbye...
Peace Out, Dude.
At camp! Meeting up with his companion. She was with him last year too so they are good friends.
Here she is working on his boat.
Cardboard Boat Races... If you look really hard and know his profile well you may see Logan among the other boaters.
Photo booth fun.
Wednesday afternoon Logan will be admitted to the hospital. Thursday morning he will have surgery for a bone marrow biopsy, Hickman catheter insertion (tube in his chest), and his first intrathecal injection (chemo injected into his spine). This round of chemo will be different than last time. We were told to expect 18 days for this first cycle (chemo and recovery).
