Negative Margins

We were very happy to hear today that the pathology reports showed all negative margins. It is very bittersweet news as much has been sacraficed. We are moving forward and desperately anticipating the day we can say it is the End of the End. Jordan's fevers continue and they found some fluid near his liver in an ultrasound today. They think it could be the source of the fevers and will be placing a drain this afternoon. It is another unpleasant procedure for Jordan but will hopefully put an end to the fevers and any infection going on.

Great news about the margins!!! Praying for the drain to put an end to the fevers and discomfort! John calls his flailing of arms dancing too - so I think maybe Jordan was just trying to dance like him. We would love to come see you guys soon!

We were glad to hear the update and hear there may be an end soon to the fevers. We are thrilled about the negative margins! Just know you are in our thoughts and prayers for strength and endurance. Jordan is constantly in our hearts. We wish we could be closer to provide more support during this hardship.
Much love,

Great news! We are praying for the best recovery possible, and Hawaii '09 even though we are not sure what it means...

Excellent recovery little champ!!!

Praise God!!! We are praying thru-out the day for continued healing and that Jordan will feel better soon. You all are such warriors during this "battle". Thank God that you have your "armour" firmly in place.

What welcome news! The "margins" have been at the top of our prayer list. Now, we're onto no more fevers or discomfort. Wish we could give you all hugs and that we could take Mom and Dad's place for just a few hours of down time.

You're our heroes. We Love you, Julie and Ken

We're all so excited Jordan's margins are clear! Jenna has a big smile on her face for Jordan! We understand, though, about how great the sacrifices have been to save your sweet boy's life. I'm still struggling with that.

We were supposed to have chemo starting Friday, but the hospital hotel is full, so SCCA may have room on Sunday for a five day stay. We'll stop by, but who knows, maybe you'll be home.
