More Steps Forward !!!!

....Friday night they moved Jared out of ICU and back to the Oncology floor. He was not resting so well there since he had gotten more awake and they thought his lungs were doing well enough to make the move....so far so good !! He has been having a lot of pain behind his "bad" eye since Thursday, medication is helping some. This week he will have several tests run to see what is going on with the leukemia and we hope that they will start the radiation soon(never thought I'd say that). Also the doctor said today that his infection had cleared up and they were taking him off the antibiotics.....yeah !!! No more gowns and gloves for the family !!! Jared is really tired and just detoxing from all the medication. A lot has happened in the last three weeks and he is processing it a little at a time. We are thankful to be over this hurdle and aware that we have some awaiting us but we again are hopeful and looking to the Lord to guide the doctor's through the next week. We so appreciate all the prayers and words of encouragement !
Thanks for hanging with us through this difficult time.
