{JaNece Editor} Where do I start? Lots has been happening with Jack and so I'll just catch up in one post. Several months ago Jack had a visit with the Dr. The report said that his lymph nodes had enlarged by 20% which could mean several things: the cancer is spreading, or he is fighting an infection of some kind (cold or something). He hadn't been feeling well and has lost some more weight. We all thought the worst and things were looking down. However, he had a scan 6 weeks later that reveled that the cancer hadn't spread and actually SHRUNK!!! It was only .01%, but it shrunk!!! We were all thrilled and excited. It gave us new perspective and even more reason to stay positive. It's easy to get down, but after we have experienced yet another miracle we will not give up hope. Jack still gets up early every morning and goes to work for the city. He has a million projects he's working on and is as busy as ever. Prayer works and we are so happy that the news was good. This is a picture of Jack pointing to his name which was written in tar by his workers. Everyone loves him!!!
Love the blog, I just read a bunch of the posts. We miss you guys so much! There is no one fun to sing to on Christmas eve. Jack, you and Eunice have found lots of fun things to do in Utah! I'm jealous--it's my old stomping grounds, you know...take care!!! We're glad you're doing well as we want you HERE for a long, long time! We're going on 5 grandchildren, Olivia started 1st grade, and David and Katie are doing well. Katie is not to far from you at BYU. Come visit, we have plenty of room now with the family diminishing....love, Marti Okerlund
