Updates to Stephen's web page are scarce - that's a good sign! Stephen has returned to a "normal" boy and the doctors at his last check-up are quite optimistic that he has beaten the cancer! Praise God!

He is still on a low dose of immune-dampening drugs to keep a low-level chronic graft vs host disease at bay, but is back in school and is involved in many sports activities.

Stephen will probably have another bone-lengthening procedure on his left leg this summer. It is about 3 1/2 inches shorter at this time.

His spirit remains strong and he is just a fun kid to be around - bright and loving!

Thanks for the thousands of prayers on his behalf.

Grandpa Ludwig
