hhcmatt Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 First 1500 students receive #AveryStrong shirts Students and other fans in attendance can also help the cause of Avery and other kids battling pediatric cancer by learning more about the National Marrow Donor Program. Fans can sign up for the bone marrow registry, as volunteers will be on hand to distribute information throughout Pinnacle Bank Arena. In addition, fans, who are age 18-44, can also receive match kits/swabs and take the test to be a potential bone marrow match at Pinnacle Bank Arena on Saturday. Fans outside the age group can become donors, but must visit bethematch.org for more information. The annual Suits and Sneakers Weekend is coordinated by the Coaches vs. Cancer program, a nationwide collaboration between the American Cancer Society and the National Association of Basketball Coaches. Since its inception in 1993, the American Cancer Society Coaches vs. Cancer initiative has raised more than $87 million to support the Society’s mission. For more information on Suits and Sneakers Awareness Week, please visit www.coachesvscancer.org.

HB Posted January 27, 2015 Report Posted January 27, 2015 Great article by Dirk C. in the OWH this morning on Avery. Actually mainly on Cheryl Harriman and all she deals with. Hopefully someone can link. IMO, I think Dirk excels at articles like this, vs. his opinion columns. He is a very good feature story writer. Ron Mexico 1 Quote

To say that Cherly is an amazingly strong women would be an understatement. HB 1 Quote
trickey Posted February 17, 2015 Report Posted February 17, 2015 A great milestone for Avery...strong! From Facebook...which I do not know how to do like I do twitter...so copy and paste from Avery's Army! Day 143 Post SCT: Avery enjoyed his favorite chicken strips from Culver's while memorizing his class schedule because HE IS GOING BACK TO SCHOOL!!!!! Yayyyyyy!! Tomorrow will be Avery's first day of 1st grade!!! He is so excited! (And so are we!!)I've met with his team at Zeman and we are ready for him to begin! Cold & flu season hasn't completely ended, but it's time that Avery start to transition into the world. (I am crossing my fingers and praying for minimal exposure to sick germs!) Honestly, I'm a nervous wreck...but knowing the joy this brings Avery is all worth it! He will start out going for only half-days until he works up the energy to go all day. Huge milestone!!!! Avery's appointment last week went very well and we are now going up to Omaha every 3 weeks for check ups. Our home health nurses still come to our house every Monday & Thursday for blood draws/labs. His magnesium is still funky so we continue to administer IV magnesium for 4 hours each night. Because of the constant tweeking of the oral magnesium, his tummy is suffering a bit, but hopefully it'll get straightened out. He is now taking all of his medicines by mouth and we will discuss further when he can have his g-button taken out. Moving forward is exciting and terrifying. We've been here before and it's just as hard as the first time. I just wish I could protect him all the time, in every aspect of life. Tomorrow, my little bird will learn how to fly again!
