Peter is still doing very well. His radiation treatments are quick and simple for him. He swings into the hospital, gets a quick treatment, and leaves. The treatment can make him a little bit worn down, but he still seems to be gaining energy compared to the past couple months.
His hair is growing back, too! I mean, you can see the change every day. His eyelashes — remember those thick, black things? — are sprouting thick and black again. And his blonde hair is returning as a noticeable fuzz.
Remember this?
It’s coming back.
I also posted many new pictures in a new format. These are from Round 7 and the BMT. And these are since his release from the hospital during the 100-day journey.
Looking better than ever, Pete! We’re all so proud of you! Keep up the good work, bud, we hope to see you soon! Love and prayers, the Kvalevogs.
Thanks for the pictures and updates. I am so glad to see Peter’s smiling face on my computer screen. Keep up the good fight. I will continue to pray for you and your family. Cheryl Bailey
Congratulations Peter on the lovely hair and eyelashes. Cute as ever from the pictures I just looked at. Keep up with that beautiful smile!!
Best of luck with the rest of your treatments.

Hi Peter and family,
We are so happy to hear that everything is going well. You are amazing (and handsome)!! Jack was asking about you the other day – “Mom – do you think Peter would be up for some baseball soon…some hitting and fielding practice maybe?”
Have a great day….
Kristi, Bob & Jack
I just love that contagious smile of yours!! Peter, you are the most adorable (or, I guess maybe ‘handsome’ is the word big five year old boys prefer!!) boy in the world!! I was getting pretty used to that gorgeous bald head of yous…. but, wow – you sure are handsome as a blonde, too! Have you noticed any strands of ‘blue’ mixed in with the blonde?? I remember early on when you were losing your hair, you had thought that it would come back blue someday! Just checking to see if it is….. 🙂
I have flutters in my heart as I read this incredibly happy news! You are remarkable, Peter! Keep staying tough with those radiation treatments…. and as soon as the doctors give you permission to join us at daycare, we will be waiting with open arms and many, many hugs!!
Much love to you, your sisters, and your mommy & daddy~ we think of you so often…..
Love~ The Kelley’s

Hi Peter
Oh man, what a great picture. You look like you have grown since I saw you last. I suppose since you are 5 now, you should look older too.
I cant wait to see you back here in Brainerd.
Take care little buddy, keep up the great work.
See you soon.
Love Jill S.

That picture, the newest, is worth a million bucks! Just in time for summer, Pete’s looking like an average Joe. An amazingly wonderful site to see.
Thanks for keeping us posted. We’ll have to have a reunion in Cross Lake for the 4th- he sure appears ready to beat some of his times (through the field at the restaurant) from last year. Seems like yesterday, or a lifetime ago.
God’s blessed you!
Krista, Pete, Abby, Nate
