In early June of 2018 Phoenix had a high fever for 5 days and we couldn’t figure out what was going on. After our 2nd trip to the pediatrician they suggested we head to the ER for further testing, and after many hours the Doctor came in and told us Phoenix’s white blood cell count was through the roof, and that he could be looking at Cancer. After being admitted to The Children’s Hospital at Providence, Phoenix underwent a bone marrow biopsy and was officially diagnosed on June 12, 2018 with High Risk Pre-B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. The next day Phoenix went into surgery to install his port and start Day 1 of chemotherapy and the start of the first phase, Induction. After 29 days of chemo, spinal pokes, steroids and medications the doctors performed another bone marrow biopsy. They came back with Zero cancer cells!! Which allowed Phoenix to leave the hospital after a 35 day stay. Phoenix being only 3 years old meet the fight head on with his mom, dad and two big brothers by his side! Enduring almost 3.5 years of treatment with multiple hospital stays, chemo holds, fevers and all the things that go along with cancer. His end of treatment date was October 3, 2021. Phoenix is now almost 10 years old and doing great! He is currently in year 3 of remission.
