A good view of Adler’s shunt since he was losing his hair. Soon it would all be gone including his eyebrows and eyelashes. The suckers on the bed were for port flushes. It gave Adler a nasty taste in his mouth so he would have them ready. He preferred the blue ones. (He liked those anytime, not just for Port flushes) They had a lollipop tree that the lids could pick from. One time all the ladies at the bank gave Adler a huge bag full of blue suckers. Lisa Namisnak was part of that!! We spent hours at chemo. Hours at home in pain. Still do. Hours in hospitals waiting for doctors, tests, therapies……Hours that add up to this hell of a journey we are on that some days seem never ending even when you look back to pictures like this and are so thankful for the days you still have. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness and Hydrocephalus Awareness Month. Here it is in one picture. 💛🎗💙💦
