Just read the Caring Bridge log. Something about this treatment phase catches me in the throat where the tears announce themselves . . . not from worry, but from the beauty and elegance of the medical strategy and also the kind of floating, suspended state Aaron is in while his precious stem cells are being held out of harm's way, and his marrow is being destroyed. I did already know about this, but it never fails to move me, especially the perfect faith a child has in his doctors and his parents that even though the battle is being fought right down inside his bones, he's been provided for, he'll be safe and come out OK. All of us are children, all of us ultimately have to have that faith.

I just read your journal entry(Caring Bridge) from Tuesday, and realized that Aaron is due for surgery immediately. My heart and prayers are with you all more strongly than ever. May God protect him, watch over him, and bring him safely through this procedure, and help him get well!

I needed to stop by, if for nothing else but to say hello and thanks for all the prayers I know are being asked on my son's behalf. I won't go into detail here, but anyone can easily catch up on the latest progress on Aaron's website. These are very troubling and trying times. Without God's love and comfort I would surely never make it through. He has seen fit to provide me with a circle of family and friends who make up a network of support which serves me well. I thank you all for your love.
Celtic Angus (did I get that right?), I may just share that prayer. It was beautiful. Thank you.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859
Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge.
~Mark Twain
