Well, I am happy to report that Mason is finished this first round of chemo treatments - way to go, Mason!! Mason did very well his last two treatments. He wasn't too sick and got lots of sleep, as the drugs made him sleepy. He even had a good appetite and was able to play hockedy with a friend he has made in the hospital. The drugs have been making him a bit irritable too, but it usually passes quickly (and who can blame him?).
For now, Mason and Kale are looking forward to Easter and are excited about their upcoming trip to see the Calgary Flames play on March 29. Mason's MRI has been scheduled for April 1 in Edmonton, with his surgery to follow on April 7. In between, Jade and Mason will be staying with Justin's Aunt Bev, Uncle Rick and cousin Darren in Calgary. Justin and Kale are going to head home for the week of school before returning to Edmonton for the surgery on the 7th. We will make sure we set up some sort of system so that we can get regular updates on teh blog during surgery to let everyone know how Mason is making out. He has been such a trooper up until now - we know he'll do just fine.
Mason is also looking forward to enjoying birthdays with his Dad and brother at the end of the month. Happy birthday to Justin on March 23rd and Kale on March 26th. We hope you Clewis's are able to spend some family time for Easter and birthdays this month. We're thinking of you every day!

Well Mason we had a blast at school on the 19th of March. Since you cut my hair, there has been three people that I know, that have asked me where I donated my hair. They saw you and me in the paper and wanted to do the same. You made quite the angel in that picture. Hang in there for the next round. We are thinking about you and we love you.
