I dont know what to say...

Today we saw the doctor for kiddo's surgery follow up. We assumed he would check the wound and send us on our way. That didnt happen. Sigh... Kiddo has cancer. He has a vascular tumor thats malignant. Its rare, there are only about 200 people diagnosed with it each year. They dont know what causes it. There is no known effective treatment. I'm pretty sure I'm in shock. We've been referred to a cancer specialist at Dana Farber Cancer Institute to determine what the next step is. Yup. That was my day. Kiddo is handling it well ... Better than me, honestly. The aspergers may be a saving grace through this. It is today, thats for sure. Karen
