Today we found out that Nicholas has Leukemia. It came as a shock to all of us. The day before we had taken him in for routine blood work and by the afternoon we are residents of the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center at Georgetown University Hospital.
Nicholas had undergone some tests because we noticed that he was easily bruising. To all of our surprise, the tests confirmed that Nicholas has Leukemia. Because his platelets were so low it was advised that we take him directly to the hospital to begin more testing. He was immediately taken to Georgetown. We are trying to absorb all of this new information and understand what is ahead of us. Other than being poked and prodded yesterday Nicholas is in a good mood, laughing and playing as if nothing was wrong. Hailey and Zach are in school and are keeping up their normal routine with Rich's parents staying with them at the house.
