Jessie's Messege To You!

HI EVERYONE!!! Sorry it's been so long since the last time I have posted anything. My internet has not been working! Before I say too much, please know that I feel very good most of the time!! I just started my first round of chemo yesterday and to say the least I wasn't real thrilled about how I felt. Before I was doing any chemo I felt just the same as always. I look the same, feel good, and I'm starting to feel some sort of normalcy in my life again. I cannot say thank you enough to everyone that has supported us through this in some way or another!! We are completely amazed at how awesome people can be!!! Thank you for all the meals, the gift cards, the gas cards, the encouraging comments posted here, the gifts of money, the great girls I work with, and many other ways in which everyone has come together to hold us up and help us through this yucky time. Oh- don't let me forget, my favorite thing to do right now is to get the mail, everyone's cards are so uplifting!! It remains pretty khaotic at our house as anyone house with an active 3yr old!! Therefore I am very grateful for everyone giving us some time to ourselves, we needed it! Thanks so much for all of your prayers, we feel very lucky for having such great prayer warriors on our side!! I have such confidence that this thing that we're going through is just a bump in our journey called life!! So we're just praying our way through it and hanging on tight!!!
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE
LOVE- JESSIE =)

P.S. To all those who are interested, if I continue to feel well, I'm hoping to return to work around the holidays!!!!!!!

Good News!

Jessie heard from the Cleveland Clinic yesterday. The test results are showing that she will only have to do chemotherapy, and will not have to do radiation. This was very good news! She will be traveling to Cleveland on Monday to talk to her Oncologist and they will create a plan for her to start chemo. This definately gave Jessie something to smile about, and we are all praising the Lord.

Praying for Healing

Jessie traveled back to Cleveland yesterday for her post-surgery appointment. Test results after her surgery have come back. They have changed her diagnosis to a higher grade, faster-growing cancer. They are working and waiting on other test results to come back to create a plan for her treatments. She will most likely not get these results until the middle of next week. As you can imagine, it was a hard day for Jessie. Please continue praying for strength, her spirits, and healing for her body.

Praying For Strength

Jessie, Mike, and Audrey came home on Saturday. Each day is showing improvement, but is still a struggle. I did get to see Jessie's smile today, which I'm very thankful! She is still very tired and needing strength, but I know she will grow stronger every day. They are returning to Cleveland for post-op on Wednesday. Please continue to pray- it truly is her greatest support right now.
