Coming up on ONE YEAR!!
I'm so excited to say it has almost been one year since Char's diagnosis. On December 21st our lives were rocked by the news that Charlotte had a brain tumor (it's really hard for me to say brain tumor without putting the word stupid in front of it... but I will try for blogging purposes).
Over the past year, Charlotte has been the strongest person I have ever known. She has fought the stinkin tumor (woops) with the best weapon, a positive attitude and the love of her family and friends. She has had some other weapons, like Chemo, radiation, and her electro helmet, but she attributes her current health to the love she is getting from those around her. So thank you to all of you!
One year ago, Char had lost feeling in her arm and leg and was in quite a bit of pain. Today, she has regained her mobility and the Tumor has gotten smaller. As of her latest MRI report, the tumor is 2.8 cm x 2 cm x 1 cm. Every MRI since a year ago has shown the tumor decrease in size or unchanged.
We are so thankful to Swedish Medical Center and all of its staff for doing everything possible to keep that tumor shrinking. We know with the continued love and support of you all and Char's amazing determination it will continue to do so.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Walk for Charlotte!
This Saturday is the 3rd Annual Seattle Brain Cancer Walk. It directly supports care and clinical trials for brain cancer patients in the Pacific Northwest. As you are aware Char is taking part in such a clinical trial so we think it is very important that as a family we get out and walk for such an important cause.
It is too late to sign up online, but feel free to join us Saturday morning at 7:00AM at the Seattle Center. Or you can just donate to our team, Walk for Charlotte!, online.
