So one year ago today is when our lives flipped upside down. Cody was diagnosed one year ago today. This morning Cody received a call saying that Dr. Rich had spoke with the Dr. from MD Anderson and that we needed to come into his office and receive the bone hardener drug Zometa. Now that we know of the two spots in his bones which can weaken them he needs to build them up to prevent injuries. Everything we have heard about this drug has not been great. They say you will feel like you've been hit by a freight train. Cody was not looking forward to this at all.
While we were there Dr. Rich told us that we had an appointment with MD Anderson on June 10th. We were so excited about this. We just needed to confirm with them Tues morning.

Needless to say the drug held up to its reputation. Cody felt like crap the next two days all he wanted to do was sleep and scream. This was the first time I've ever seen him take any of his pain pills.
My heart breaks each time I read your posts about Cody and the treatments. Just the pain and suffering he goes through and I can only imagine what your heart goes through watching. I admire you both so much! Love to you both!
