Fight with Robbie

03/14/2026

Another amazing experience provided by the Jimmy Fund Clinic. Very happy Robbie is well enough to join.
Fourth round of chemo starts when he gets back. 💛

“I’m excited and nervous,” said 13-year-old Robbie Vigeant, a Newburyport seventh-grader battling brain cancer. “I’ve never left family before. I’ve never been away from them. And I’m also excited for the experience to meet the Red Sox and do everything.”

Kid was on CLOUD 9! ☘️
We got the full VIP treatment, PIMCO club dinner and drinks, halftime snacks, met some players, sat courtside behind the net.
We owe so many thanks to the Jimmy Fund Clinic AND the Boston Celtics for making this happen!
Scroll to the end pics for player pics ❤️
He missed you Payton Pritchard so added a flashback photo from when he met you at camp 🙂

Next couple days of chemo done!

We want to thank everyone for their outpouring of love and support over Robbie’s good news update! He is continuing to kick this thing’s butt!
As Robbie was sitting in the infusion chair last night he was offered COURTSIDE VIP tickets to the CELTICS that same night! Someone amazing donated them to the Jimmy Fund Clinic. He was devastated (if you know Robbie, he’s a HUGE Celtics fan) because he knew he wouldn’t be strong enough to power through it after three days of chemo finished just hours before so he had to pass the tickets along to another warrior.
My baby is so strong both in body and mind. We have been nothing but impressed with how he is handling this. He has not complained once and as he says just does what he has to do.
That was probably the hardest and most mature decision he has had to make yet. Thankful for that. 💛🩶💚☘️

Love you all!

Scary day turned FABULOUS.
Today was Robbie’s first repeat MRI of his brain tumor since starting treatment AND his first day of his third cycle of chemotherapy.
All of the anxiety and panic in the days leading up to today have been wiped clean with the results from his scan.
He is over the moon with excitement and hope.
They said the tumor size has reduced dramatically and is better than what they hoped for. He may even need less radiation than anticipated if this pattern continues.
The next MRI is after his fourth cycle. 🙏
Let’s hope things continue like this.
Robbie also wanted yo reveal his bald head today. 🙂🫶💛🩶
THANK YOU ALL!

People who are looking to help out…

The dates have been extended. 🙂

The meal train has proven to be the most helpful thing for us between getting Robbie back and forth to Boston while maintaining normalcy for the rest of the family. The amount of stress relief it provides is outstanding!

Thank you to all who have already delivered those delicious meals! 😋

✨"No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted"✨ This time of year should be filled with nothing but fun, relaxing, snacks, gifts and celebration. For the Vigeants, their whole family and especially their son Robbie, a sweet 13 year old boy, from Newburyport, it has been anything but....

Lab day again. 🧪
Keeping busy while we wait for results.
These are done two to three times a week between cycles to see if he needs interventions like transfusions etc.
Today his platelets were 31, ANC is 280.
😷
He received Neulasta this cycle so hopefully those white cells will rejuvenate much quicker.
His threshold to receive platelets is under 30. Transfusion free today and I think we are pretty close to Nadir! (His period of lowest counts between cycles)
