No news has been good news.......
Jillian has undergone numerous tests over the past six months to look at a variety of spots that have been captured on her scans. The final word this month is that she is still cancer free!!

For whatever reason Jillian has a nodule in her liver that has chosen to begin repairing itself more than three years post BM Transplant and she has a Cyst in her plevis.

School for Jillian has been challenging, as we are sure it will continue to be. But, she is starting to get the hang of putting sounds together to form words which is essential for reading. Her reading is improving, as is her math. You still never know what your going to get from day to day with her though.Some days Jillian does exceeding well and others she just turns herself off. Her teacher agrees! Jillian is behind about 40f her class but, is improving...so her teacher is happy with her progress thus far.

Ian is still crazy. He did have an awful trip to the ER last week and was diagnosed with a Staf infection. Of course, in true Ian fashion he was back up to his old tricks the very next day....amazing!! He can be so sick and still running around at lightening speed.

I hope you all have a blessed holiday season and are able to spend this time with your family.That is so important!!

Remember:
"We can do no great things, only small things with great love" -Ray Walder

With Love and HOPE,

Natasha, Jason, Jillian and Ian
