Ok,
there's no way to make it simple, or funny.

the CT scan we've waited for all week came back on the brutal side.

jackie's lungs look better, but too many of the little spots that were supposed to disappear, are bigger then they were.

on the bright side of things, dr. chua immediately pulled her from the clinical study and put her on just a single one of the new chemo drugs.

she has seen 'amazing results' with this one.

also on the plus side is the fact that with the new protocol, the chemo sessions fall from 6-7 hours down to about 1.
also, the side effects are reduced with the new chemo.

what we need now is for everyone to bear down.
jackie can still use all the positive energy you've got.
no matter how you express it, or send it her way, just keep doing it as hard as you can.

dr. chua is not the kind of person to offer false hopes, and she says this is a very positive course of action and we're all behind her.

so, keep jackie in your hearts, in your prayers, in your hopes, and in your dreams.

  2. There is not a day that goes by that Jackie is not in my thoughts and prayers. Every time I rearrange my bracelets - my pink one, her white one - I say a little prayer.
