Good evening.

We are finally home from Reno after St. Baldrick's. We; me, Jennifer, and Rachel; actually shaved our heads for Childhood Cancer Research. Our team, Team David, had 7 shavees. Thank you Jay, Jordan, Wayne, and Adam for joining us and supporting David; and all children with cancer. We raised over $3000!! Yay!! Thank you, all of you who contributed to St. Baldrick's in Team David's name! We had a choice to go bald, so many children with cancer didn't get the choice; including David. He says he never wants to be bald again! We pray he never has to be. It was great to see Teagan tonight! She is such a doll! We do love that little girl. It was great to see Darren, Wendy, and Roman, too!! It was a very loud event! But it was good. It was wonderful to see how so people come out to support Childhood Cancer Awareness and Research. Some of the money raised stays local, so it helps families here! That is so good. So the event is finally over, the three of us girls are bald! I just hope my hair grows fast!!!

Davi​d had PT today, and he did good. He did get tired, as usual. And tomorrow he has PT in the pool. He is also working out some at home. He is such a great kid!! So he is getting stronger, slowly but surely. Thank you for your continued prayers for him.

Please continue to pray for David and his schooling. It is so hard for me to watch this child, who school used to come fairly easy to, struggle. Thank you for your prayers.

Tha​nk you for checking in on David and the Koury Klan. Have a good night tonight. Again, thank you for all your prayers, love, support, and encourageme​nt. God bless you all. We love you. {hugs}

Several childhood cancers continue to have a very poor prognosis, including: brain stem tumors, metastatic sarcomas (that is what David has), relapsed acute lymphoblast​ic leukemia, and relapsed non-Hodgkin'​s lymphoma
