MRI went good!!!
Posted 47 minutes ago
Today was Travyn's MRI and it went great. We got there at 8am and waited for the Radiologist to come and get Travyn. We walked Tray back to the MRI machine and they asked Jayson and I if we would like to stay and watch again. I laughed and said NO Thanks!! lol Last time we got massive head aches from the loud space ship machine so we decided to not watch. awww! Instead we went up to the Huntsman Cancer Institute and had breakfast at "The Point". We had alot of time to kill because they were scanning the Brain and the Spine. We returned to Primary Childrens. Travyn wasn't quite finished with his MRI so we waited in the recovery room for about a half hour. When he got done the Doctor came and talked to us and told us how well the MRI went and that Dr. Pulshiper would be calling us with the results as soon as he read them. They warned us it would be a couple of days, but we feel very confident that its going to look good. We continue to pray for my sweet son. After the doctor left we had to wait 45 min of recovery time until we could leave. after 30 min Tray finally woke up and was such a happy little boy!!!! We left at 11:30 and went home and took a nap. It was a busy but great morning.I will let you all know as soon as I get the results. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE continue to pray for Baby Tray. Your beautiful prayers are so needed right now. Thank you so much for your love and support!! I love you all so much.
Thank you and God Bless you all!!!

First of all, I want to thank you for the many prayers that have been said in behalf of my little boy. Words cannot express how much they mean to me and my family. We know that through the power of your prayers the MRI results will be what we all have hoped and prayed for. May God bless you all for praying for Travyn and our family.
Last Thursday I took Travyn in to have his central line checked out because it looked a little red and I wanted to make sure it wasnt getting infected. They swabbed it and took blood cultures and sure enough everything was fine. Im just a little 'worry wort' and I dont want to take any chances when it comes to my sweet boy. :)While I was at the Doctors. The BMT (Bone Marrow Transplant Team) came in and had Travyn's road map on his upcoming procedures. I was shocked when I saw how soon we were going to start his 3rd cycle of Chemotherapy and his Stem-Cell Replacement. WOW!! What a busy week we have starting tomorrow at 8am. The month that I thought we were going to have for a break turned into 2 weeks. :( I am happy and sad at the same. Happy because the sooner we start the sooner we will be finished and sad because I dont want to see my sweet precious baby go through this awful Chemo. He has been such a happy little boy and I DONT want to see him sick. But I feel grateful this time because he will get the Stem-Cells Replacment and I've been told by the Oncologist that the Stem-Cell Peplacement does WONDERS!!!!!
Heres Travyn's Road Map.
Starting Tomorrow, Monday June 22 at 8:00am Travyn will have his MRI.
Wednesday, June 24: Jayson and I will meet with Dr. Colte for a Neuropsych Evaluation. At this point im not sure what this consists of.
Thursday, June 25: Travyn has labs at 11:30 to check his ANC and Blood Count. and at 1:00 Travyn will have a EKG (heart test), a Spinal Tap, a Echocardiogram. (A Echocardiogram is a test in which ultrasound is used to examine the heart), and a Audiogram to test his hearing. He will be sedated for all of this. The reason why they test his hearing is cause the chemo and Radiation is so damaging and Travyn can lose his hearing in the future. Right now his hearing is perfect and responds very well to noise.
Friday, June 26: Jayson and I have school at Primary Childrens from 10:00am to 2:45pm to learn about: Dietary, Pharmacy Education, Nursing, Child Life, Social Work. A little more educaion wont hurt us.;) What a day huh?? My Mom will be watching Tray while we are at school. Tray is so excited, he loves his Ah-ma so much and everytime he sees her he gets so excited he clenches his little fists and smiles so big!!!!
Monday, July 6: Travyn will be getting admitted back into Primary Childrens to start chemo :(
Please keep praying for my sweet baby that everything will go smooth and that there will be no complications and THAT HE WILL BE HEALED AND THAT THIS MRI WILL SHOW AMAZING RESULTS!!!!
I will update you all on how the MRI goes and when I get the results. but I do know the results may take a couple of days, just so you know. :)
I love you all so much and cant thank you enough for the prayers being said for Travyn...Thank you and God Bless

Life is good!
Posted 16 hours ago
Sorry I havent written sooner, it has been a crazy week. We finished Radiation last Friday. Can you believe Radiation is over??? The weeks just flew by. Like I said in my last update, I know what lies ahead of us and I am not looking forward to it at all. Chemo is such a difficult thing to go through, esspecially when its your precious little baby going through it, and knowing that he will be admitted back into Primary Childrens Hospital is very hard for Jayson and I to come to terms with. I cant even begin to tell you how much joy Travyn brings to our lives, and having him home with us has been the most amazing experience. We have watched him grow and develop into this cute little personality. Just in these last few weeks he has completly changed from the little boy that was in the hospital. He is our pride and Joy and most of all our little FIGHTER!!!! We met with the oncologist on monday and she was so impressed on how well Travyn looks. She could not get over how much hair he had and how long his eye lashes were. She confirmed that it will be about a month until Tray starts his 3rd cycle of Chemotherapy. He needs 3 more cycles. He already has had 2, so a total of 5. But we are focusing on the prize and the prize is CANCER FREE!!!! (Right Nonie?) Tray will be getting a Lumbar Puncture in 2 weeks followed by an MRI. A Lumbar Punture other known as Spinal Tap is where they can collect Cerebrospinal Fluid (spinal fluid) and then they will test the spinal fluid for any Cancer cells. This AT/RT tumor can send out microscoptic cells to the spine and kidneys. So they are just making sure Tray is clean and nothing new has grown. We feel very confident that there will be NO NEW signs of this horrible disease in his little body.
Other then that, we are living our lives as normal as possible, knowing that our lord is by our side and I believe with all my heart that God will heal my little boy. I still have a vision of my sweet little boy running home from school with his backpack on swinging from side to side. AND IT IS THAT VISION THAT KEEPS ME GOING!!!
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT.... WE LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR MY LITTLE BOY.....:)
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!

5th and FINAL Week!!! :)
Posted 20 hours ago
Oh my gosh, I cant believe we are almost finished with Radiation. Travyn has been doing really well for everything he has been through. Last week though, we started to see some of the side effects from the Radiation. He has been sleeping alot more and even though he has been such a happy little boy he definitley can be a little fuss budget. There hasn't been any blisters or burn marks on the back of his head but he is a little bit more red then usual, kinda like a sunburn especially at night. We are praying that there has been minimal damage to the healthy tissue around the tumor. He has impressed everyone that has taken care of him.. He is progressing like a normal 9 month old should. Yes, can you believe it??? Our little Tray Man turned 9 MONTHS OLD ON THE 6th. He has been fighting this beast more then half his life and he WILL continue to fight untill he is CANCER FREE!!!!!
Jayson took Travyn to labs today and let me sleep in. I dont know what I would do without Jayson and the love and commitment he has shown Tray and I. We love Daddy so much!!! Thanks Babe! Jayson was told by one of the oncologist that after Radiation, Tray will have a 2-6 week break and then he will start Chemo and the Stem-Cell replacment. I have been so scared for Radiation to end because I don't know what lies ahead. But I have trust and faith in the lord that everything will be ok and that he will take care of us and be by our side the whole way. We have seen miracle after miracle and it is through the power of all of your prayers that our sweet little boy will continue to progress. I cant thank you all enough for all the many prayers that have been said in our behalf. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR OUR SWEET BOY!! WE LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!

Posted 17 hours ago
Tomorrow we start our 4th week of Radiation. I cant believe how fast it has been going by. Travyn's Radiation Theripist, Dr. Hazard comes in twice a week to see how things are going with Travyn and she also goes over everything from the following week. When she came into see Travyn last week, She was really impressed on how well Travyn has been doing and how good his skin looked. No burn marks, blisters, no peeling of the skin. He looks GREAT!!! Thats my boy for ya!! He's a fighter and he will fight through anything. Travyn has been such a Joy to be around and brings such a beautiful light in our lives. He is so Special!!! We took him to the Clark Planetarium last weekend and we saw the "ASTRONAUT LIFE 3D" and he loved it. He would wear the 3D glasses for a minute but then he would pull them off. lol I think he was getting scared. We had a blast!! Other then that things have been going really good. Just livin and lovin life. We are so happy with the way things are going. Life is good!!
Thanks for all your love and support. I love you all so much!! Thank you for all your prayers! please continue to pray for my sweet boy!
