Well guys, it’s my first post in awhile and it’s not the best of news but once again, it was a possibility we was told could happen. With how young Cayden was during treatment, we was warned the chemo could damage his adult teeth.
He had a regular cleaning at his dentist today and they did a growth scan to check up on everything. We discovered Cayden does not have his adult teeth in the back. Not only are they not there, it’s causing the canine teeth to grow in sideways for the ones he does have. His dentist is worried about doing anything without St Jude so we will be calling to see what the plan is going to be. His dentist said for the missing teeth, he will have to either get implants or partial dentures.
It’s not the best news but it was something we was warned about. Cayden is not happy about it either cause like anyone else, nobody enjoys the dentist.
I’ll make another update after I speak to his team in Memphis and figure out a game plan. He still has his up coming checkup in February as well.

WE DID IT 🎉🎊🥳🙌

5 years out of treatment and he’s still NED!!!

Scans came back clear and we couldn’t be more happier!! 5 years of fighting for this warrior and he came out stronger than ever!! This momma couldn’t be more happier and proud!

He will now be moved out of D clinic and into ACT Clinic! He will be with them until he graduates highschool or turns 18. We will continue to come back once a year for check ups and scans.

Now we focus on the aftermath of treatment and possible side effects. We have came across some possible ones but nothing major or anything to worry about right now. Just some things to keep an eye on for now.

I would like to thank each and everyone of you who has been here from the beginning or has joined us through the process. Your prayers have helped us so much. 💕

Cayden is done with his MIBG and for the first time ever, he did it while he was awake!!! He didn’t have to be put to sleep this time and we are all so proud of him!
So St Jude celebrated for him and even signed a poster for him!
We are now headed home and will soon find out the results. I will update everyone as soon as the results come in.
Thank you all for every single prayer, please continue praying for amazing results and a safe trip home 💕

Cayden’s getting ready to go back for his CT scan. Originally he was going to be doing his scans tomorrow but due to weather, they wasn’t able to get his nuclear injection in today. So now he will be getting his MIBG scan on Friday.
Wish him luck! 💕

Today has been a busy day with appointments. A lot of paperwork signing for the research studies he will be in, including the tests for those.
He had an ultrasound of his liver done, bloodwork, and a scan to see how long it took him to digest water.
Everything came back normal except for the digest scan but I will be speaking with them tomorrow about it.

As for the bloodwork, little man did such a great job! He had to get poked twice cause the first one failed but he never once cried! It’s the first time in history that he has done this and we are all so proud of him! He’s also so proud of himself and told everyone he ran into how much of a big boy he is now!

Tomorrow we have more appointments in regards to the research studies, plus some normal appointments for him as well like a check up with audiology.

This momma is beat and wore out, I’ll post another update tomorrow as well. His big scan to check for neuroblastoma and ct scan isn’t until Thursday so keep an eye out! Thank you for keeping Cayden in your prayers!💕

Keep us in your thoughts and prayers for safe travels as we head to st Jude today!!! 💕

That time of year is coming up when we head off to Memphis!
This year is going to be a big one. It marks 5 years since he finished treatment which means if scans are clear, he gets to move out of D clinic and into ACT because the chances of him relapsing are so close to zero!!!
Also, St Jude reached out as well awhile back and asked if Cayden would be able to be a part of two new research trials.
One is St Jude Legacy Study which is for patients who had High Risk Neuroblastoma. It is to learn more about the long term health in patients who was treated for this cancer and it is being conducted by Cayden’s oncologist as well!
The other one is St Jude LIFE which is basically the same but in regards to just being treated for cancer, no specific cancer.
Not only will it help St Jude with their research, but it’ll also help Cayden as well in catching anything that might be wrong due to treatment.

With this means a longer stay in Memphis with more tests but they’re not intrusive, ones such as a sweat test, psychological test, ultrasound, etc.

Cayden is super excited to head back to Memphis this year but is also worried about not seeing his clinic anymore because he’s going to miss them. But he’s super excited to make new friends at ACT clinic!

We will be leaving on February 16th and will get to come back home February 22 so keep an eye out for posts to come!
