O.K. Here we go.
On Thursday the 18th of February, Ashlee Robinson, age 4, my youngest daughter, was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma cancer. A type of bone cancer.
She has a tumor about 4mm wide and 18 cm long on her right arm starting at the shoulder and going toward her wrist, and it is in the bone itself.
The first step is to take her to Salt Lake City and have a couple of biopsies done and a full bone scan to see how advanced it is. We will then have a game plan.
Best case scenario is.
They remove it. She does chemo, and we win.
I don’t think I need to go into the worst case scenario.
We have set up this blog so that our friends and family have a place to follow us on this journey.
We will be going back and forth to Salt Lake as many time as needed. I have put Donate Buttons on this site per request from people wanting to help out with travel expenses and what ever else Ashlee needs.
If you know me, then not much explanation is needed, on how desperate and determined I am to get my baby cured. “Every Dollar Counts” Has a whole new meaning in this family. We need all the help we can get. (prayers,funds,happy thoughts) everything helps.
If you do not know me, ask the person that directed you to this site. They will be more than happy to tell you about me,the Robinson family and Ashlee. It is impossible not to love that child.
We leave for Salt Lake Monday the 22nd, and her first appointment is on Tuesday.
We do not know how long we will be there.
I will up date the blog as we go.
I beg you,,, only happy thoughts for her please. And if you have children, stop right now,,,, go hold them until they beg you to let go, then hold them a littler longer.
Thank you.
All for now.
Daniel
