It was a good day

I have talked before about my son's friend Charlie.

Charlie was recently diagnosed with PPB,  a rare and often serious form of pediatric lung cancer.  While Charlie's case is rare, it was diagnosed early and many of the cysts in his lungs are benign.  Even so, he started a 4-6 month chemo regimen to deal with the very real possibility that these cyst could change at any time.

Many days Charlie is tired, he is frustrated and dealing with any number of side affects from his treatment. But today, today was a good day. We got to meet Charlie at the park.  Just for an hour, we watched them all play as kids should, run around playing transformers and alligators, eating hot dogs and telling stories.

Today, today was a good day.
