The tumor is gone, and Dashiell is resting. Surgery was long and challenging, but the entire tumor was resected today. I saw the tumor, and named it.

The surgeon, Graeme Pitcher, is our family's hero. What good fortune brought him to cross our paths during this ordeal is not for me to say.

We await pathology and blood work, and will continue with aggressive therapy to finish off any "cancer dust". Our long road back to good health and cure is not yet clear.

But this is a huge step forward. An unspeakable burden has been lifted.

The love, kindness, and prayers of our friends' and families' have lifted us. You have offered us courage and hope, of which we have been in short supply for a while.

Thank you to every of you for keeping Dahsiell's well being in your hearts.

That'd be just me.....exhaling.

I am happy for you and your family and Dashiell especially. I pray that he bounces back in that amazing way only children have.

Thanks for the update.

Excellent news. My wife is still abed (it is 5:22am here) but I will share this wonderful gift with her as soon as she wakes.

Your struggles have never been far from my heart and thoughts. As a father of two young ones, any child's pain and suffering is greatly dreaded. We felt especially helpless, not knowing how we might help, and I know this is as a tremendous burden from your shoulders.

Let the healing process begin. As soon as the little fellow is up to it, maybe a small trip?

Glory be to God!

Only three more days of chemo-radiation left myself. They had to switch to another drug that is less injurious to my hearing.

I think the prayers from this band of gun-loving brothers was as potent for your son as they were for me.

My thanks to all.
