The Spinal MRI shows cancer. Jay had a spinal tap yesterday to inject chemo into his spine as well as radiation to the head tumor. He is experiencing weakness in his arms and legs. He is also fatigued from the radiation. He is having a difficult time sleeping because he lower back hurts. He can sit up only for a few minutes without the pain being too much.
He will continue to receive radiation to his head for the next 8 days. They may also add radiation to his spine once they determine if the chemo is of any benefit. They don't want to radiate the spine while he is receiving the weekly chemo injection.
We ask for continued prayers!
Beth my friend, I will definitely be praying for Jay.

You don't know me, but I've been following since your blog began. My brother worked in the same building as Jay, and asked me to pray and gave me the link to your blog. I've been praying since then, and will keep doing so.
ReplyDeleteContinued thoughts and prayers sent your way. <3
