Journal entry by Jamilynne Ellis

Today we are back at duke for a procedure. Jude will be having a feeding tube placed that will remain the rest of her cancer journey. We are so thankful for this and that Jude will have the nutritional support she needs.  Jude has not been able to eat recently due to energy loss and the side effects of radiation. She will be admitted to Duke for 1 night. 
We have loved seeing all of your pictures with your #Judithlaynestrong shirts!!! If you have not, please send us a picture!
