Recovery

Jeff was hit hard during his chemo journey and the results from recent scans weren't what we were hoping for. The size of Jeff's tumor hasn't changed since the day they started chemo. The team has consulted and more consultation needs to be done with Jeff's previous neurosurgeon but for the moment, no further treatment is required. They will closely monitor Jeff with MRIs every 3 months and keep his IV port in (just in case). The hope is that chemo has killed the tissue, even if it didn't shrink, and stopped the growth. Jeff is improving each week with some days better than others. He has been more awake the last few days and has even been able to watch the kids for a few hours in the evening so that I can get out.
