Making Progress

We are so thankful to report that Jack’s platelets and ANC jumped up to 91 and 1095 respectively so he is good to go for the next 8 weeks of chemo! Never thought we’d be celebrating that but Jack is determined to push through and #JackUpCancer, and so are we.

We are also really encouraged that the doctor has a game-plan hopefully to relieve Jack’s back pain. He saw a DO today at the clinic who worked on Jack’s back a little bit. He wasn’t able to do all that he wanted today because Jack’s platelets are still too low but Jack will see him on Tuesday morning before he has a spinal tap and chemo when his platelets are higher.


We so appreciate all of your continued prayers, meals and kind words (and the body pillow). Thank you Eatons! We wanted to especially thank Jack’s friends who have been a consistent support and encouragement to him even during their busy teenage lives. I can’t tell you how it blesses my heart to see Jack grinning and laughing during a game of Catan with the guys or a movie with Grace. Those smiles have been few and far between these days.
