Quick Update

With just a few more days until James' next MRI, I wanted to ask for the prayers of any that are checking the site. The Burzynski Clinic was late on getting James' last MRI disk and just recently let me know that they consider the tumor about 10% bigger. They have increased his dose of A10. He is actually now on a higher dose than he ever has been. It is our hope and prayer that this will have arrested anything that was happening. The MRI should let us know. He is doing well, but I do worry with school starting again. We have talked to James about really doing his best this semester and we hope that the increase in dose doesn't throw everything off. He needs a good semester and we know he can do it if he really tries.

Johannah is doing pretty well. She did have another grand mal seizure on Thursday, but I think that was the only one for the entire Christmas break. Although she did have mornings where we saw seizure activity, we were able to get it stopped before she had a big one. She, also, is going to be trying for a better semester than the first one.

We cannot tell how much we appreciate all the prayers. But, I wanted to specifically ask for prayer for:

1. Shrinkage, or at least stability, on James' next MRI.
2. Help with staying awake and concentration for James in school.
3. Fewer seizures for Johannah.
4. A clear mind and help remembering for Johannah in school.

Please take the time to leave us a comment. It is so encouraging to know who is praying for James and Hannah.
