Grateful for awesome doctors!

Well James had his MRI on Monday morning and then a clinic visit and X-ray right after. It took us 9 hours to get everything done. It was only supposed to take 3 ½ hours. Everything in the MRI looks the exact same from last time. They are just having a hard time deciding if its scar tissue or tumor. All his counts are up and he is doing fantastic.

We were supposed to have a biopsy done Wednesday morning but we received a call Tuesday afternoon that Dr. Moss had no intention of doing any surgery on James. We were super excited! Then this morning I received a call from Dr. Li letting me know what is going on. They are not going to do a biopsy on him, Dr. Moss does not think its tumor and since he's the Neurosurgeon whose done this a lot he would know. James is going straight to high dose chemo and transplant at PCH. He has his work up next week(which mean they check everything, even teeth to make sure its all ok) and then as soon as the work up is done he will start chemo.

We are just grateful that Heavenly Father has blessed us with such great doctors. They love James and want to make the best possible choices for him. We are sad because this means we are done at Cardons for a while and we really love everyone there. We are just praying James can make it through this last part of treatment. He's almost done!
