Jeff didn't have a good night last night...he was suffering from extreme headaches and vomiting, neither one of us got any sleep. Anyway, yesterday I called Cedar Sinai to let them know that Jeff is getting more confused and wanted to double check what I needed to do...I got a call back today, and after I told the nurse about last night, she talked to the doctor and asked if we could come in today...so...thanks to our wonderful church, we were picked up by Terry McCluney (a fellow Emmanuelite) and driven to LA! The doctor said that there is definitely more tumor and that the current Chemo is not working...he has a trial medication that is only approved for use with colon and lung cancer, but he believes it will help Jeff so now we wait for insurance approval and then we can start this new experimental drug along with a new Chemo.
Please pray that the insurance approval is timely and overall that God's will is done!!!
Also, a prayer of thankfulness...I am scared, but have much peace with the new information and Jeff really does too, so we are comforted by the Holy Spirit and an overwhelming knowledge that God is with us.
Glory to God in the highest!!!
