June 24th - Our warrior Cole was discharged from the hospital this afternoon!!! This past Monday he first showed signs of recovery and he continued to improve each and every day. To celebrate his release, Cole wanted to go to Outback Steakhouse. So of course we obliged! Somewhere around July 7th he will be tested to see if the CAR-T immunotherapy did its job. In the meantime he will stay in Boston for a while longer and have periodic clinic visits.
July 9th - We just got the fantastic news that Cole’s immunotherapy treatment has worked and his cancer is again gone!!! Of course we still have challenges ahead, but this is the news we have been waiting to hear. Next we will meet with his medical team Thursday for further details and how we proceed from here. Thank you all for supporting this amazingly strong kid on his latest journey!!!
July 12th - It’s official, Cole’s doctor (Dr Margosian) says that he can return home to Florida after another successful battle. We have a 10pm flight from Boston on Friday night. Cant wait to be home and see all of our Florida friends!!! We could not have done it without all of your support!!! Thank you all from the bottom of our heart!!!
I also wanted to thank my employer (The Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County) for allowing me all the time I needed to care for my son. It is an incredible place to work and they truly do a world of good with the money they raise, expertise they bring and services they provide to our community. Thank you to all of my coworkers for being there by our side through all of this and for caring so much!!!
My wife Denise would also like to thank her employer (The Village of North Palm Beach) and coworkers for being so supportive.
To all our friends in the West Boynton baseball and flag football community; you have aways been there for us in a big way. Thank you, thank you, thank you. See you at the fields soon!
ColeStrong over and out!!!
