Last Day of Chemo!

On March 11th, Trey went in for his last chemo treatment.  Such a happy day!  Everything looks great....he looks great.  He'll be followed by oncology for the next five years.  This first year he'll see the doctor every 6 weeks and have CBC drawn.  Then each year will be a little less.  No more pills to take (except an antibotic for 3 more months).  We are ALL DONE!!!! :)

The staff at the hospital were all so good and a group of them came in to sing a Hooray Your Done chant and presented Trey with a suprise gift.  Then we went into another room and he got to ring the bell.  (This is a special bell that cancer patients get to ring when they are done with chemo.)

Top picture is of Pam, the intake nurse.  She is so great and personable.  Always remembers who Trey is.  The next is of Trey's last chemo. 

An amazing group that has taken great care of Trey for the last 3 years.  We have really appreciated the care that he received at Primary Children's Medical Center.

I tried to download the video of Trey ringing the bell, but I haven't been able to make it download. 

Since his last treatment, Trey has been doing wonderfully well.  About a month later we watched as he jumped up the stairs.  Shane and I asked him how he was doing and he said so enthusiastically," I have sooo much energy."  I was almost in tears....tears of gratitude and happiness.  We have been so blessed and I continue to be humbled and in awe of the amazing blessings and tender mercies of the Lord that our family experienced the last few years.  I know that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is true.  That He is our Savior and Redeemer.   My faith has been strengthened and renewed through this experience.   Many thanks to those who have prayed for Trey and our family.   I know it was through the prayers of so many, that we were comforted and Trey was given the strength and courage to make it through.  Thank you for being apart of "Trey's Journey".    Much Love,  The Larson Family
