Ronan was born on June 13, 2001 in Edmonton to Joe and Ali. He is a big brother to Malcolm; grandson to Lydia, Teresa and Bob; nephew, cousin and friend to many. A 4th grader at Prince Charles School; musician; music lover; chess champion; Harry Potter fan; bananagram-er; card shark; board gamer, corny joke teller. And cancer fighter.

This blog is intended to ensure that Ronan’s vast support team of family and friends are connected, informed and engaged while he, dad Joe, mom Ali and brother Malcolm help him beat a terrible, scary disease - embryonal sarcoma, a rare childhood liver cancer. So welcome to Ronan’s blog. Sit, read, cry, and vow to fight this fight with Ronan, Malcolm, Ali and Joe. And please leave a few words of encouragement with a Comment.

Good Morning!

Everything is going well - Ronan is in good spirits and eating well. His blood counts will start dropping tomorrow, so we will have a quiet weekend and hopefully stay hospital free again. His daily injections of Neupogen have started and that helps his white blood cells to rejenerate faster(guess who gets to administer the needle?)

    Hey Guys, no place like home. Steph tells me Meaghan, Chloe and Isobel are planning a visit once those white cells settle, maybe the weekend. When you're all together let's try skyping. Hope all goes well.
