Yesterday Jacob had his three month follow up at the Children's Hospital. It included a CT scan, EKG, Echo, Chest x-rays and blood work. We are happy to say his scan showed no visible cancer. He is experiencing a couple side affects from radiation and chemotherapy. He will be seen by a Endocrinologist to check the functioning of his Thyroid. Also his blood pressure was elevated and his primary physican will monitor it to see if it stays high and see if he will need further tests. Jake is doing really well and looking good. He is enjoying middle school and looking forward to traveling baseball tryouts at the end of March. Thank you for your prayers and support.
