An email from Oliver's teacher

I thought this email from Oliver's teacher would be fun for you to read.

"Oliver is doing great at school and actually asked to talk to the class yesterday about his recent prognosis and explained bone marrow transplant and %’s to the class. It’s great that he is so open and willing to discuss what is going on with him. He talked a little about his fears and the kids asked him questions. It was a very healthy discussion and I’m amazed at how brave in how he is dealing with this. Kudos to you for helping him handle leukemia in such a mature and open fashion. We are certainly glad he is back and is doing so well. – Mrs. Vance"
