Science fair!!!

Tomorow me and dad go to set up the project! I couldn't wait to post the pictures on friday so im posting them today!

Question - Do distractions, like video games, affect a person response time to pain?

Hypothisis - I belive that the time in the water will be greater with distractions.

Experiment - I took 10 people and tested them. My subjects put their feet in ice cold water without any distractions, and I timed them to see how long they could withstand it. After they took their foot out I stoped the timer, let them play mario cart, and wrote down their time. After five minutes of them playing games I sneakily put their feet back in the water and timed them while they were playing their game.

Conclusion -

I learned my hypothisis was correct. I found the difference between the two times was 53 seconds.

MRI Update

Above is a photo of 2 MRI's. The images on the LEFT were taken on 8/16/2010 and the ones on the RIGHT were taken on 1/6/2010. What a difference. It looks like no sign of regrowth in the tumor. Click on the photo to enlarge it on your screen!

Dr. Webber, the Radiologist that viewed the film felt that it was not recurring.


Rylan has to make a follow-up with his surgeon in the next couple of weeks. We'll post how that goes.

First Scout Camp

Rylan went on his first camp as a Boy Scout.


Clean Scout Uniform and Ready to have FUN.



Learning to sharpen a hatchet.



Free time always involves a Knife and a Stick!

It started to rain rather hard in the evening, and the boys, Rylan included, learned that we were serious about keeping the tents fully zipped up. There were many wet sleeping bags among the boys!


Cooking Breakfast for the Troop.


Dad didn't take a lot of pictures, but Rylan definitely had a good time!

Science fair UPDATE!!!

Sadly enough i didn't make it into the state science fair =,( so many people loved it but there were just some better than mine. I just wanted to tell all of you that i didn't make it. So there aren't gana be any more updates for the science fair =I

4 Week Follow-Up

It's hard to believe that it's time for a 4-Week follow-up visit! It seems just yesterday that he was puking all over his room at the hospital after walking for the first time! :)

Shelly and Ry went back to Primary Children's Hospital to meet with his Doctor.

Lunch was had at the cafeteria, and both Rylan and Shelly RAVED about how good the pork chop lunch was.



In the waiting room, Rylan was playing with the "Bead Toy" that you find in every Doctor's Office waiting room, however he put the Rylan Twist on it by putting his play to music. Mary Had A Little Lamb was the soundtrack for the performance.


Once he finally got called into the exam room, he got do don the "Stylin' Shorts" once again.


Dr. Randall came in and gave Shelly the pathology report, it wasn't cancerous, so that's the good news.


He wants Ry to get an MRI every 6 months for the next little while. Looks like Ry's going to be just fine.
