GOOD NEWS ALERT!!!!

From Jill on Monday January, 30th, 2012:
"On our way home from the hospital. This has been one very emotional day! I am so thankful for all of the doctors and nurses at mary bridge childrens hospital, they made this experience so much better than I could have ever expected. I am also thankful for all the parents and children that have gone through this before in the past that have joined the studies to get the cure rate from zero % 40 years ago to 85% today. Thank you all for continuing to pray for us."

From Jill on Wednesday, February 1st, 2012:
"We just got some really good news today! The doctor called and there is no leukemia in his bonemarrow,spinal cord or blood.  This means he is on the low risk treatment and will be receiving the least amount of chemotherapy over the next 3 years. This also means a lot less chance of side effects when he gets older. Thank you all for your prayers.  He does have a fever and we might be making a trip to the hospital tonight so everyone keep praying because we are not ready to go back yet! We get to talk to the doctor on Friday to find out what his treatment plan will be like. I will keep everyone updated."

P.S. The fever went down quickly and nobody had to go back to the hospital!!!
