Brian's blood work performed a week ago was improved even better than the previous month.  He begins another round of chemotherapy tomorrow so we're once again reaching out for your prayers and continued faith that he does as good or better than he has been.  We return back to Duke on Sunday, 6/3/18 with our scheduled MRI and doctor's appointment on Monday afternoon.  We're leaving tomorrow to pack up his dorm room and move him into his new location for him to begin school again this fall.  Once again we don't what we'd do without everyone's continued prayers and good wishes.  You guys are all so supportive and encouraging and it means the world to us.  Thank you!

    Praise God for the good report and Brian's return to school in the fall. I will continue prayers for complete healing. I have the Brian bracelet on my sink counter to remind me to pray for he and his family. May God give you, Lydia, and Bob the strength to juggle the travel and care of Brian. You are a blessing to him for sure! Carol K.

    Wow! Great news, so unbelievably happy to hear all this positive news!! With the blood work results, and feeling pretty good through out the chemo, and now moving your things to a new place at school!! He must be ecstatic to be able to start back up at school in the fall! How rare for a kid to be so happy about returning back to school again, but not for our Brian!! He loves what he does and loves to learn which is what makes him that notch above most, and so passionate about what he does that I know he will be doing amazing things!! So proud of you Brian how you’ve handle all of what has been thrown at you....you are such an inspiration to us all!! Love you guys!! 😘😘😘

    Brian, you really are an inspiration to us all! Keep checking those chemo rounds off and they will be done before you know it! (Ok, maybe not "before you know it", but soon enough.) Stay strong! Praying for you always!

    Good job Brian, Lydia and Bob!!! Enjoy the visit while you're moving Brian out of the dorm. I'm still recovering. I think I have PTSD from moving 2 girls out in one day.
