Monday 12/21

Jon is finally in the air on his way home. We recieved good news today. His tumors are shrinking!! He is responding to the treatment, which is great. His liver function blood test came back high, so he did not get the hepatic pump therapy. The oncology team said this is commom with chemo going directly into the liver, and to not worry. We are glad that he is monitored so closely. He is to plan on going back in a month, when his liver function improves.

Sunday December 20th

We are hoping that Jon can get his flight out to New York today. New York has been getting tons of snow. He is due to have a PET scan and hepatic pump chemotherapy tommorrow. This is going to be a VERY SPECIAL christmas this year and we hope he can get in and out of NY in time. We believe this chemotherapy treatment is working and crossing our fingers the PET scan results come back with great news. Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season!
