Coltrane and Jackson update

Hey friends,

Coltrane is doing very well.  He's playing and laughing and talking like crazy.  However, we will be admitted Sunday night for his next Immunotherapy treatment.  This is a two week long one again.  It will be very hard on his body, most likely.  Just when he gets up, he goes down.  Jack has some sort of virus and is quarantined from us.  We are praying for a quick recovery for him.  We've learned of some treatment that we can opt to receive for Coltrane's benefit after he's done with Immunotherapy.  It has minimal side effects, lasts two years (only taking a pill/day), and is very promising.  Of course, they don't know much long term affects from it.  We are praying for the doctors to come together and make an agreed decision.  We are asking God to help us with making the decision based on the majority of the doctors have to say about doing it.




Please pray for:

This next cycle won't be so harsh on him and he'll be able to bounce back quickly
Won't lose weight
Have no pain
Keep appetite
Less stressful time at the hospital
Doctors and nurses to be very attentive and have wisdom in their decisions
Sonja and I to be wise.
Jackson to feel better and not pass anything on to anyone
Jack to be comforted by the Lord as he's quarantined from his family
Pray for the doctors to research the optional treatment very well and come up with the best ideas for us to be guided by.

Thank you so much for praying for us.

We love you!

Love,
Justin
Sonja
Jackson
and Coltrane the Old Soul
