Monday, March 30, 2009 11:28 PM CDT Wow it has been so long since I've updated, that I almost forgot how to sign in here! That is a good thing. I was just reading through guestbook entries going back to 2002. Amazing how far Colin has come. Today he turned 13 -- yes, a teenager. He is in 7th grade now. And check-ups at Children's Hospital are now every 9-12 months, with a yearly echocardiogram. Colin has now been off chemo for 4 1/2 years. YES!! :-)
