DING!!!

HE IS DONE!!!

At 4:03pm yesterday, Caden rang the bell, alerting all in the Tri-Cities Cancer Center that he has completed his radiation therapy treatment!!! They told him to hold the rope away from the bell, so that it could ring out loud, and strong, and clear. DING!!! Even if no one heard the bell, they heard the screams and cheers from those in attendance to congratulate him and wish him luck. I would have cheered, but my emotions were stuck in my throat. He did it! We made it! He's done!!

Watch out Summer, the Dirks' are ready to PLAY!!!
