The most challenging yet fulfilling aspect of my life so far...

Cousin Taagen

These are some pictures of Jonas's cousin. Taagen, taken on Jan 29,07 - three weeks before Jonas was born! This was Taagen's first trip to Quadra Island - he is a Victoria boy. The boys will meet on Taagen's 1st birthday which is April 6 - this will be Jonas's first (small) trip!

Taagen has been very sick lately with Wilms Tumour and will be undergoing chemo over the next several months. We are very positive for a full recovery and a return to a normal and healthy life. He has 11 months over Jonas and much to teach his 'little' cousin!

My daughter had Wilms' last year. She is doing quite well right now -- in remission, or as they say for solid tumors, "No Evidence of Disease."

You might want to pass on to Taagen's parents that there is an email list for parents of children with Wilms':http://listserv.acor.org/archives/wilms-kids.html

I have found the people on the list to be absolutely wonderful. They've answered my questions, given support, and always seem on top of the latest research.

Best wishes for Taagen and your own cutie-pie.
