I emailed the doctor yesterday to ask if the confusion Jeff is experiencing could be the Vicodin or if that means that the tumor is growing. I also asked if there was something to combat the loopiness if we raised his steroid dose...here's the answer I got...
yes, 8 mg twice a day and we will decrease after Avastin (quote, unquote!).
So, as you can see, I still don't know if his confusion is the tumor or the meds...oh well, I did increase his steroid and there was no loopiness last night, he did get up a lot however, not really knowing what he needed.
Also, in the last couple days I have come to a place of real peace and submission to God's will...don't get me wrong, I am still praying for a miraculous healing for Jeff, but if God's will is to take him home, in my loss and pain of missing him I will have much peace!!! Praise God!!!!!
Please continue to pray for restored memory, no more headaches, successful treatments and over all that God's name is glorified and that others may come to know Him through our journey.
You are all the best! Bless you!!

Hello Jayne,
Wonderful updates from your website. So glad you feel peace- because the anxiety and worry is not for you . Oh, and just because you are at this peace, does'nt mean you cannot still fight full force - or even harder. It does'nt mean you gave up, but you have fully submittted to our God. He is the author of peace, not confusion.Your prayer support, your family and church support...will support you as and our Lord continues to heal Jeff adn carry him. You have earned this peace - you really have. Your strength and gentleness along with compassion for your family and others - is remarkable.
You are one, beautiful person.

This post brought tears. You are so amazing. So glad that you have peace with this all. Can you imagine having to go through something like this without knowing the Lord?
Vonner, you hit the nail on the head...we would have given up a long time ago if it wasn't for our Lord!!!!
