SMH... rhabdomyosarcoma. From the prostrate and/or bladder. Fairly progressed. Not sure how far until everything can be completely analyzed.
Predicting 3-4 months of very aggressive chemo. Poor kid :( only 2 weeks of his Junior year left. School has said he can skip finals and his grades will stay as is. Summer baseball is a no-go.
Thanks for your continued thoprawishes. He laughed when I told him a bunch of internet nerds were praying for him ?

Yeah... unfortunately we're all too familiar. He's at UofM Mott hospital so there's not much better care available anywhere.

No words Kee. The one good thing is, kids bounce back quickly. His youth will actually be a benefit here.

Hopes for all the best outcomes from me, Keerock. I have some experience with chemo, so feel free to ping me if you have any questions.

Mott is a member institution of the Children's Oncology Group, so you are indeed in the best hands. As a COG member, your son's physicians will benefit from collaboration and data sharing from physicians across the network.
Not sure whether proton radiation (or radiation generally) has been mentioned as an additional treatment after chemo has been concluded. If so, I do not believe that there are any proton radiation centers in Michigan. If you end up coming to MD Anderson in Houston for proton radiation therapy, know that our Foundation can assist you with free housing and other support services.
Much love to you and your son.

Sorry to hear it but glad he's in the best hands and that includes yours, Kee. I'll be in your neck of the woods in July. Let me know if I can bring you anything, from grub to brews to an awkward man hug.

Best of luck to your son Key. Had cancer myself at a young age. I'm a big believer in the power of positive thinking so make sure you guys approach this as something that will be beat. Times will get hard, your son will feel crappy at times, but have him always look towards the final goal and what great stuff awaits him after treatment is over and he kicks it's ###.

Thanks GBBB. Radiation has been discussed (not proton as far as I remember). Will know more in the next few days.

May be premature since chemo is first up, but be sure to ask your radiation oncologist about proton radiation when the topic is on the table for discussion. The primary benefit of proton radiation is that the beam is targeted and the damage to surrounding tissues is greatly minimized.

My family and I lives about 50 minutes north of Ann Arbor, so if you need someone to go feed your dog (if you have pets) or cut your grass or whatever let us know.

I have a good feeling about this, I think he's going to be just fine. I don't know why, I just do. And if an optimistic prognosis from a faceless, beer-guzzling lump of mashed potatoes on a message board doesn't buoy your spirits, I just don't know what will.
Hang in there, man. Your boy will need lots of positive vibes surrounding him. He'll beat this.

Did some reading and the ACS says the numbers are in his favor. Glad to hear that anyway. You, son & fam hold fast, feel our care when you are running low.
