Each day Jay is getting stronger. He is still very weak and struggles to walk with a walker. The hope is his strength and mobility will start to return when they finish his radiation. He has also been on high dose steroids that are now being tapered which will help his leg strength to return. He is having the ommaya reservoir place in his head this Friday. Chemo will then be administered through the ommaya instead of with a spinal tap. His spinal pain has been greatly reduced with the chemo and radiation.
He is fatigued from the treatments but is fighting and moving forward. He will start physical therapy after Christmas to help him regain mobility and strength. He is eating great and sleeping really well at night!
We are looking forward to Christmas with our babies! A big thank you to everyone for all of the prayers. Keep them coming.
So glad to hear that Jay is getting stronger. You are both fighters! �� thank you for keeping us informed. You are loved! Mary
