Good Morning!
Yesterday was a great day. We received the final pathology report and Nathan has a Juvenile Pilocytic Astrocytoma, which is a grade 1 non-infiltrating tumor. That is the best possible outcome we could have hoped for. The oncologist is comfortable with holding off with chemo for right now and repeating the scans in 3 months. Nathan was also moved out if the ICU last night and ate rice and pears for the first time. It was all around a perfect day for Nathan. We are so grateful.
He is still in a lot of pain and has now developed anxiety to the nurses and doctors....wouldn't you??? These babies are smart! He also has a great deal of trouble settling enough to fall asleep. We hope taking him off of the steroids in a few days will help. We will try to feed him again today.
We are thankful for each step in a positive direction! Our prayers continue to be answered every day!
Much love,
Beth and Mike
