I fought through the process,
And I was determined through it all.
I was Valente and strong
And now I survived.

At first I was worried to death,
When the doctor said that I had cancer.
I stayed strong
Cuz I knew that my family and friends
Would care for me,
And spread the word
So I would survive.

My friends and I
Were always supportive of me,
And we could talk for hours,
Playing on our DSes,
Talking about Legos
Like great friends ever should.

Later, I was cancer-free
And I celebrated
We did everything great
It helped me cheer up.

I found out
That many people have cancer
Not only me..
And I'm now determined
To end this...

i want to thank you for joining the evan gary club. although there were only 47 people apart of this club, thats 47 mais prayers, 47 mais hopes, and 47 mais pieces to the gary family.
sadly on november 28, at around 8:00 in the morning, evan gary lost his battle with cancer.
his known last words was a conversation with his mom. the night before he passed away, he told his mom he wasnt feeling well. she responded, "oh even, that makes me so sad." after a pause, he looked up at his mom and said, "do you think jesus is sad too?"
he was a 14-year old...

This was originally written por his mom.

Evan received his third dose of Marqibo on Friday and continues to do well, clinically. He has experienced mais of the side effects this time (i.e. numbness in fingers, constipation, etc.), but nothing too problematic.

He also has continued the chelation therapy (i.e. nightly 12 hora infusions of desferal) to pull the overload of iron out of his blood. Being on chelation therapy has helped to reduce his iron and improve his coração function. However, his ALT has not reduced as much being on it this time as it did before. This is the one liver function test...
