About Cole Kambeitz

My photo
Cole Jonathan Kambeitz was born October 5th, 2008. He was born with chicken pox-like lesions on his skin. After a CT scan, MRI, x-ray, ultrasound, and a biopsy, he was diagnosed with Langerhans Cell Hystiocytosis (LCH) at 3 days old. It affects his skin, liver and lungs. He completed treatment of 1 year of chemo and steroids and after a liver biopsy in late November '09 confirming no active disease, he is officially in remission. Today he is a very happy boy, excited to explore the world.

11/3, Monday

Cole got his chemo today. Tomorrow is his last day on the antibiotics for the pseudomonas infection and he will come home unless anything arises with his health. He will most likely get another blood transfusion in the morning since his hemoglobin levels were low again today. The results from the sonogram of his liver showed no changes. We were disappointed but didn't really expect anything anyway. We are so excited to have him home with us tomorrow and get a break from the hospital.
