We realize that many of our friends and family didn't get to see Max's symptoms before we got the diagnosis since we were able to catch it so fast. We really wish we would have gotten some good video footage to show some of his progress, but Josh and I both could not stop laughing when this SNL digital short was shared with us, as it looked just like how Max was walking before we took him to the hospital.

The doctors say that his cerebellum is what is being attacked and he acted like he had just polished off 12 margaritas, things progressed quickly to the point where he was irritable all the time, couldn't stand or sit up on his own, had dancing eyes, tremors, and slurred speech. We met with our new oncologist that will be following us today and she was so pleased with the progress since his tumor was removed and he started chemo and therapy. He is walking around the house, trying to climb stairs and he even walked through the hospital today without holding on to someone's hand! We are so excited with his progress and we know that it is because of all the prayers! Thanks!
