HALFWAY DONE!!

JACK
Eating breakfast, cute hat on, and sharing his priceless smile!

So, what about the "other stuff" that's going on?

Jack is doing pretty well. His platelet count dropped fairly drastically at the end of last week, so they ended up giving him a platelet transfusion yesterday.  It was a little surreal and comforting seeing many of the same nurses from when he was getting treatments 4+ years ago... but no shock to any of us, they all remembered Jack.  :)

They of course all told stories about his bravery back then, the jokes he made, and the Grace with which he underwent any obstacle.  Now here he was, doing it all over again.   And although not able to share verbally quite as well as wants to, we all understand the point he's getting across when he flashes that smile, or rolls his eyes, or tries to squeeze Dr. Claire's fingers numb.

His walking & speech have improved slightly, although still not to the point where anyone other than Dr. Claire or those who see him daily would notice.

We are excited that he is halfway done, and are hoping that he continues to improve over the next couple weeks.

Continued thanks for all the love, prayers and support...

We love you all!
