Praying for Jack

We are truly thankful that Jack is feeling a little better this week. This is Jack's last week of the induction phase of his chemotherapy. The goal has been that he would be in remission (less than 5% of the cancer cells remaining) at the end of this phase.

He has a spinal tap and a bone marrow test on Thursday to see if he is in remission and to determine what his risk level is for the next phase of chemo. His blood counts aren't where the doctors want them to be, but we are asking the Lord for his mercy.

Would you please join us in praying for these two things:
  1. Jack would be in remission
  2. He would not have a post-spinal tap headache

  2. Jack is in our Constant Prayers. We are also praying God wraps you Pete ,Erin and Caroline in his arms during this difficult time . It is very hard watching someone you love go through theses tribulations , but you are not alone . We are praying he will be in Remission on Thursday with no headaches or any other side effects . We are so sorry we could not attend his Open house but wanted to let your Family know we made a donation to the Make a Wish foundation in Jacks Honor . Much love being sent your way ♥️🙏Love , The Merrell Family

  3. Praying for all of you. Chris had a similar headache after an epidural during his intestinal surgery and it was totally debilitating. I pray it doesn't happen to Jack. -----Susan
