The Beginning

It all started on June 15th, 2013, with an admission to Children's Hospital with a case of suspected pneumonia.  A chest x-ray revealed that Justin's left lung cavity was filled with fluid.  A chest tube was inserted and the fluid drained.  A second x-ray was done at that time which revealed a tumor behind his lung, coming from his rib. On June 27th, after many scans, x-rays and biopsies, Justin was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma.  Our world as we knew it, had just ceased to exist.  We now have a child with cancer.
