{Eunice Editor} I wanted to send you the latest information about Jack. He has CT scans every 9 weeks to track his cancer. The first CT scan showed that his main cancer tumor had shrunk 30%. We were amazed at that! It was so unexpected because the drugs were defined as being able to just stop the growth of the cancer. They did not expect that his cancer would actually shrink!
This time, that same cancer tumor is the same. Which is good news because it means it hasn't grown! The really good news is that the other cancer nodules and lesions, and places where the cancer had spread from the beginning, are all GONE! There is no cancer any more in his lymph glands, no nodules throughout his lungs. There were 9 places that they were tracking the cancer and they are ALL gone, except that one tumor. It is really truly a miracle! Even the doctor who was "cautiously optimistic" about the 30% shrinkage is pretty excited now. Jack is very aware that yes, he still has cancer. But we have been given the blessing of hope and optimism. We thank you ALL for your prayers in his behalf, and for your love and concern. It means so much to us.
