Caden is a sweet and strong 3 month old baby boy who began to exhibit symptoms of discomfort and pain after about 2 & 1/2 months from birth, the doctors and ourselves thought he was simply colicky or having other digestive difficulties until a particular pediatric doctor by the name of Dr. Hartsook reccomended taking him in to Phoenix Children's Hospital for a scan just in case. Little did we know but a mass was growing in his cerebellum area, the doctors were amazing with him and so far things have been improving well. We are so grateful that we brought him in to the hospital when we did. The support we have been receiving from friends and family has been miraculous, and the doctors and surgeons have been amazing in taking care of Caden, We definately brought him to the right place. Caden is a 3 month old baby boy who has recently had a brain tumor successfully removed from his cerebellum, and is currently awaiting the diagnosis of the malignant form of cancer from which the tumor was made. He will begin Chemotherapy treatments in probably no earlier than a 1 & 1/2 weeks, which will hopefully rid his body of the remaining cancer cells. We are always open to visitors, it helps to have a little distraction and social interaction while we wait for the next step in the process for Caden's recovery. Other than that, we have been having meals brought to us, which has helped us by not having to spend so much money on food while staying in the hospital.
