Not much to write about really.  Jace is doing great.  Still has the bandage on his head from our table incident.  Last Tuesday Dr Alter removed the bandage but left the steri strips hoping to let it get some air and within a few hours Jace had picked 2 of the 3 off.  So we had to go back up to the Drs office and let them put them back on.  He bandaged it up and we decided it would be best to just leave it covered.  It seemed to be healing pretty well.

 As of last week, his counts hadn’t dropped any from the heavy chemo he was on.  Dr Alter seems to think that the chemo wont do much to him, that the dramatic fall in his counts last time had alot to do with the combined radiation with the chemo he was on.

We have a Drs appt tomorrow and will have his CBC drawn in the morning before we go, so we should know more about how he is doing then.

Mommy update:  The pregnancy is going really well.  We are about 30 weeks now, so time is winding down.  We had a little scare when I failed the screening for the gestational diabetes test last week…but after the 3 hour fasting test a few days later we are all healthy.  He is just a growing boy.  Guess I wont be having anymore Whataburger chocolate shakes the night before any of my appts anymore (haha). Everything is going great.

Jace has his MRI scheduled for September 30 as of now.  Hopefully this one will tell us alot more and give us more insight as to where we stand with all of this.  Pray for Jace….we want no signs of illness!!!!!!

God Bless you all
Joshua, Jamie and Jace
