Best weekend ever.....

I've been thinking about updating the blog since Thursday night, but have been enjoying my son and his wonderful smile. For the last past 11 years I have always thought that he will always be silly and his smile will never go away. You never think about what could happen that would prevent the norm. However, I now know how that feels not having my only child, my son Dalen Seals not be himself nor smiling. So these past couple of days I have been embracing his smile, his laughter, his silly jokes and all his entertaining ways. Dalen is my joy! He has changed my life completely. From the time he was born I knew he was something special. When I first held him in my arms, I felt an overwhelming love that I can't still to this day explain. He's happy again! He's smiling again! And I love it!!!.....This past Thursday Dalen did not do any Chemotherapy. I told the doctors about his vision lost on Wednesday night at the recreation center and they were shocked that this could be happening and became very concerned. The doctors held off one week of treatment to see what the eye exam would indicate. On Friday at dalen eye doctors appointment, we were told that his eyes have completely flipped flopped. His left eye , which originally was his lazy eye is now his best eye with the clearest view and his right eye is a blur. However, his brain is still using the right eye. Some how Dalen's brain will have to train itself to use the left eye again. This is why he can no longer see text messages or read any books. This journey has become a complete life change for him and myself. We thought that this chemotherapy would make everything better. But our God had another plan. We can not have more faith in man made medicine than our Savior. We are learning that all our faith must be in our Savior, He is in complete control. This whole journey is a learning experience for the both of us. Our Faith is stronger than ever before. Please continue to keep us in your prayers....Dalen played in his basketball game this Saturday. He did a super job! He has completed all his Math homework from the last couple weeks and is trying hard to complete other class work. Dalen is doing his best and that's all I can ask from him. #proudmom
