Today Jackie went back to Seattle and completed her PET scan and we were pleasantly surprised. The Doctor have now down graded the tumor to low. This very good news because she will now have the 5cm x 2.5cm tumor removed and this will mean she will not have the Chemo treatment. Tomorrow Jackie will have her surgery at 12:30 pm and have the tumor removed. This will keep her in the hospital until Monday. After this she will probably undergo radiation treatment to make sure they have taken care of all the bad cells. As for how we feel we continue to be thankful that God has heard all our prayers and on all accounts Jackie should be ok. Thank you all for the wonderful comments and for the communion of saints.
This is as far as we know and please continue to keep us in your prayers.
