Save Jace

Hello Everyone,

First of all let me apologize to all of you that have so patiently been waiting for an update on Jace! I am very sorry! We appreciate all of you who have continued to keep Jace and His Family in your Prayers!

I was called back in January and offered the chance of a lifetime when The Sales Manager of L&F Distributors called me up one day and offered me a position in management! For those of you that aren’t familiar with L&F… L&F Distributors is the Anheiser Busch (Budweiser) Distributor for a huge majority of South Texas and part of New Mexico. So starting on January 30th, one day shy of my 33rd Birthday and the 1 Year anniversary of when we found Jace’s First Tumor, I began my career as the High End Branch Manager for the Corpus Christi Branch of L&F. Things are going well and I am very Thankful to God for this blessing and to the Fine People at L&F for giving me a chance!

Since then, Jamie and I have found out that Jace is going to be a Big Brother and we are taking it day by day with this one! Jamie has had a lot more Nausea with this pregnancy, but has been doing well now for the past 4 weeks!

Jace, well that’s a whole other story as many of y’all have come to know!

We have completely finished all of his chemotherapy (12 rounds) and all of his MRI’s have come back with no changes!!! Well, excpet for one…. The “Scar Tissue” that we have seen in the scans for the past 7 months has almost completely disappeared! The Dr’s said that “It was Healing Itself!” Jamie called me one day and told me that she had the chance to see the MRI Slides and that it looked like an example of a Brain that you would see in a Text Book under “a perfect brain”… Wow… Praise the Lord!!! She said it was a HUGE difference from the slides that we saw just a year ago where his sutcher (line down the middle of a human brain) was pushed over to the left due to a Baseball Size Tumor crowding Jace’s Right Frontal Lobe of his brain!

Jace has undergone many tests to make sure that the chemotherapy hasn’t messed up any parts of his body like Sight, Hearing, Kidneys, Liver, and much more and we are happy to say that all those tests have come back excellent and normal! Once again… PRAISE GOD!

We have had a few discussions with the Dr. and Radiation seems inevitable….. but I like the way he worded it… “We are Winning the Battle, but I want to Win the War!!!” and that means doing some radiation to maybe kill anything that might possibly be in there! Hoping there is nothing in there, but just in case this would hopefully take care of it all!!!

Jamie is now a stay at home Mommy since they closed her office, but things are going well and we are making things work!!! It’s tough but with God, Jace’s Stregnth, and Our Families Love, we are getting through everything!

I thank you for the continued prayers and support! and I thank each and everyone of you for your Love and Caring!!!

I promise I’ll try to make an effort to make things Updates a little more frequent!

Love to All Of You and God Bless,
Joshua Sandoval
