HOME AGAIN....YEAH !!!!!!!!
Jared got to come home today !!!! His levels are rapidly moving up and he came through this round of chemo faster and better than any of us had anticipated......thank you Lord !! He will go back to the clinic tomorrow and meet with his doctor and we should know more then what to expect. We are very thankful to the Baylor Team, they took good care of all of us !! Joanna had her blood test ran again last week at Baylor, they want to double check everything. We should know this week sometime how that all looks. It has been a whirlwind 2 weeks over in the BIG-D and I think we are all ready for a little rest. Some really good news is that the HR person from Christina's school district is going to go before the school board on June 7 and request that they wave the pre-existing on Jared which would open the door to start the paper work on the bone marrow transplant and possibly get Joanna in before July to harvest her cells. This would be HUGE !! The doctor is still trying to find the best solution to this challenge. They are not wanting to compromise Joanna or Aubrey and not knowing how long Jared will gain from this round of chemo, the debate is when to bring Joanna in, before or after delivery and when the Insurance will kick in. If this all sounds confusing-welcome to our world !!!
So that would be our prayer request for this week 1) favor with the school board- 2) wisdom for the doctors - 3) that Jared will remain healthy and enjoy being home for a while !
Thanks again for all the support ! You all have hung with us for over a year and we could not of done it without you !
Love ya all !! The Waters !!

You all are truly amazing and we are so proud of the way you have handled all of this and we just continue to pray for everything to work the way it needs to.

Hard to believe it's been a year (not sure whether it feels longer or shorter; depends on the context I guess.) WE love you all and ALWAYS have you in our prayers.

was glad to read the update, lovely for Jared to be home to his own bed and bathroom for a while. of course will keep praying specifically for the things you have asked for this week. These words cant possibly show how much we care and pray for Jared all the time. He, Christina, Joanna and family are truly never far from our thoughts.
Judy, David, Ben and all family.

I check in on y'all a lot and I am always moved by the amazing showing of faith in the Lord. You are amazing and God is using you in mighty ways. Don't lose heart -- your story is being used by God to strengthen and grow His kingdom. Know that your witness will be the breaking point for some lost soul somewhere, tipping their scales in the direction of salvation... Know that all of this suffering will be woven into a story that changes someone's eternity. Your testimony will be what someone needs to hear to make head knowledge become heart knowledge. Your witness will mean that someone whose current destination is Hell will be in Heaven with Christ someday. Stay strong -- God is using you to reach someone who is lost. Keep your eyes on the prize -- someone who you may not even know right now is depending on you (and they don't even know it) to demonstrate faith they can see. Live each day knowing that God is using you. You are becoming a man -- a family, really -- that He would write about. You are in my prayers even though you probably do not remember who I am. Your faith and strength (all of you: Jared, Christina, the parents and extended family and even unborn Aubrey grace) is an inspiration to believers and your story will be such to unbelievers. I KNOW IT!
