Journal entry by Jeremy Hedberg —
Hello All -
We just wanted to let folks know that I had a clean/unchanged MRI yesterday (4/10) which is a blessing from God. I have now completed three rounds of chemotherapy post the 2nd surgery. Experiencing a lot of fatigue and some "wooziness/nausea" but able to do most things normally. This is strong chemo with six rounds being the maximum anyone can take. Therefore, before starting every round there is an evaluation to determine when/if to start another round. I will likely start another round in two weeks if nothing changes for the worse in my blood counts, etc.
Next week I will go to Germany to receive another dose of the vaccine they have developed there. For those unfamiliar, I am trying an experimental vaccine in Germany that is tailor made specifically to fight/kill any of the cancer cells in my body and leave everything else alone. It is a vaccine that would only work for me because it has made based on "my tumor". It is exciting and does not have physical side effects, so praying it gets some traction in my body.
We will look to update this after the next MRI (end of May). In the meantime, Trish and I believe strongly in the power of prayer so thank you for all of them and we humbly ask you to continue them.
