It's time!

Colten has his Bone Marrow Transplant today, and as Erika blogged on his Caring Bridge sight, it was pretty uneventful. Now, it is just a matter of time before his body takes it in and makes him all good and healthy again.

Here is a picture of him though getting the new goods! As you can see, you don't have to be awake to get well.

It looks like a fantastic day for a walk tomorrow...please come out and support the Cowell's!

T -1 and the Countdown is Done

Just one quote for Colten as the actual transplant begins tomorrow and another step to being Victorious in the battle against his Leukemia is taken.

"Victory-a matter of staying power."

So, dear friends, please find staying power in your thoughts and prayers. Send them to the Cowell family as they take this next big leap so that Victory can soon be theirs!

Stay strong little man...for those of you who are Cruisin for Colten on Saturday, Thank you!

T -2 Days and Horsing Around a Little

Erika has posted about Colten's day for today on her Caring Bridge site. If you need the link, you can click on it to the left of this post.

He is a champ, that is for sure! So in honor of the pony visit and medicine from the equine, here is today's quote.

"You are never too old for a teddy bear!" or a Pony in Teddy Bear's shoes...so glad that today was a good day...

Reminder about his walk on Saturday, it is in an older post that you can find on the left, for more info email cruisinforcolten@yahoo.com. If you can't make it, you can always donate using the Paypal button also to your left. Or you can email cruisinforcolten@yahoo.com to order a t-shirt!

As always, prayers and loving thoughts, hugs and kisses from a far and never ending faith make fantasic donations too.

T -3 days and No Words to Share

...today, no wise words to share...just a lots of love and hugs and prayers to be sent to the Cowell's in your own words.

Please say a little prayer for them, they seem to be working after getting some good news today! Shout it to the roof tops or say it quietly to yourself...just keep on doing it in your own words.

T -4 Days and slowly making his way

Colten is in day T -4 of Bone Marrow Transplant preparation. I gotta say he is one tough little man, to be put to sleep twice a day and still go strong. So today Colten, keep going slowly but surely along your path.

"It doesn't matter how slowly you go - as long as you keep going."

Lots of love to Dale and Erika, and the Cowell Clan too...slowly but surely you are loving him well again!

T -5 Days with an Attitude to Boot

"Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference."

Keep being your bright and shiny self Colten!

T -6 Days while Climbing Mountains

"Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find you have crossed the mountain."

Just a few more pebbles for the Cowell family until they reach the top of their mountain. Almost there!
