So a couple of days after the diagnosis when things were looking pretty grim I was able to catch a moment between two grandsons of Clair that a thought was worth sharing. Caden and Brody were on the farm with Dan taking care of some of the business that has to happen there and I looked out my window and was able to sneak out and capture the pictures below and the words of Caden that brought tears to my eyes. Here we all are us grown ups feeling helpless on many different levels. And the kids don't understand why or what is happening but out of this was these two little boys who adore their grandpa trying to do something.
As these two were cleaning off the back of the truck, Caden turned around to his Dad and said "Look Dad we are helping Grandpa!" I know that at least at that moment they truly helped me get some perspective and hope! Thanks Boys.

Hi Shannon!
I visited Grandpa today and saw him without hair. He's such a cutie!
Since I work in organ donation I have had several people approach me with questions about the potential bone marrow transplant Grandpa will be needing. I'm currently putting together some info and I was hoping you'd be willing to post it on the blog for everyone to access. I'm just waiting for one of my contacts at the U of U to get back to me and then I should have all the info ready. Would that be OK?
Thanks again for all the updates- I check this website first thing every morning!
Jamie
