A Tough Day
The family has hit their angry day… why is this happening? why our Cody? why can’t they fix him?
I can’t say enough about Cody - the perfect person, the perfect son. I’m not just saying it, it is true, as you can see through all the dear messages posted here. Cody is smart, funny, athletic, kind, musical, honest… The list can go on, but these are just short descriptors. To meet him, to interact with him, you can sense what a special person he is. He is the type of person that can learn by listening, he doesn’t have to make mistakes to learn. He listens to everyone, takes what is right and applies it to his life, and continues by trying to teach it to others. One of his greatest attributes is the way in which he applies himself so hard to everything he does, constantly trying to improve in every aspect of his life. Cody is the type of person that comes up with sayings and nicknames and everyone copies Cody, including me. “Nanner” and “did you stay delicious today?” and “are you feeling geodesic?”. His comedic timing is impeccable. Cody excels in school and sports. He is a coaches dream. He is capable of doing anything or being anything. He is just a joy to have around in any situation.
I’m sorry, I will stop carrying on. I am trying to stay positive today, it has been difficult. The neuro tests are not encouraging, although nothing is confirming one way or another. We still sit in this void, waiting for Cody to wake up and tell us he’s just faking. We wish he would hurry.
He’s taking his chemo twice a day, they are confident it is doing it’s job on the mass in his chest, but we need his brain to start firing properly now.
Keep praying, keep staying positive - you can do it Cody!
