Jake Update

Today we went to the hospital to see how the MRI's on Jake's lower back looked. This was one of the best visits we've had since we've known Dr. Pollack. She didn't even have to go into any detail and just said everything looked great. This was such a huge relief!! This is now 2 visits in a row that have been easy going without another load of stress dropped on us. Last month we went to have Jake's head checked out, and we just noticed some of the existing tumors were slightly more plump from the previous check up. This is something to watch out for, but nothing to fret about. So, as we stand, we will go back in 6 months to have more MRI's. This is a huge step for us in the right direction because we usually have to go every 3 months. We don't know if he has reached a point where the tumors have stopped growing or if all of the radiation has done the trick. Only time will tell...
