Chemo Day 1

Kalan handled his first chemo session very well today. He will have another session (each one lasts about 3 hours) next Friday (9/18), then have a week off, and then start the cycle again. We are hopeful he'll continue through treatment with no side effects and know that we're off to a good start. We're a little tired but are so thankful to be on the path to Kalan's recovery.

    And with the marvels of modern medicine, Kalan is now partying until dawn. You make chemo look easy. Keep it up.
