Some good news after a hard week

November 24th, 2006

We finally got some good news today. Jordan had a
bone scan, chest CT, and a bone marrow biopsy today.
The first two tests came back negative for any other
cancer. The bone marrow was not back yet, but the
oncologist said it was very very very unlikely to be
positive if the bone scan was negative. The pathology
report also came back for the type of tumor and the
doctor said it was a very treatable type of tumor. So
given so much shocking, bad news this week, we are
grateful for this news. Jordan will likely have 9
months of chemo and also radiation . It is going to
be a long haul. Jordan is most likely going to have a
port put in tomorrow (like a long term IV line). Then
they will get the chemo going as soon as possible.

The Lord has sustained us through this. The body of
Christ has joined together to support us in ways that
have been completly overwhelming to us. We have had
so many visit with us, pray for us, take care of our
kids, plan for our homecoming. It has gotten us
through the beginning of a very very difficult trial.
We are grateful beyond words for all of you who have
been there for our family.

Love, Becky and Brent
