Fighter Chandler Booth! [Post #14 3:30 PM] [the food for the party has arrived. i'm still wearing sweatpants!]



Chandler was diagnosed with Stage IV Neuroblastoma on July 17, 2003. He was only 47 days past his first birthday! He has endured 5 rounds of very substantial chemo, a 6 hour tumor-removal surgery, stem cell harvest, two stem cell transplants, and 18 days of radiation. We are now off therapy, and just doing scans every 3 months to look for improvement.

It has been 2 years and 3 months since the end of radiation, which marks the end of formal treatment. Chandler took Accutane for 6 months after that in 2004 and again also for 6 months in 2005. He is now 4 years old, living large and going strong after lots of therapy and prayer! He just had his scan done on July 23 and everything looks good!

Nikki’s Notes: I can ascertain from Chandler’s site that one of his biggest supporters is big sister Betsy! Please send her some love too! [Sorry I can't write more at this moment, but my house is in chaos!]
