Quick Update

Hey All

I don't wan tto alarm anyone, but I do want to let you know that Ben is being admitted to Children's this afternoon for an early MRI. Ben is scheduled for his MRI next Wednesday the 12th but recently we have been seeing mild symptoms we can't ignore and if his tumor is growing we need to know as soon as possible so we can get in front of it. There are other things that can cause his symptoms..hopefully its tumor death, causing some mild swelling. Please don't worry, just say a few extra prayers today and tomorrow!

Will update when I know more.

Erin

This is my first time to your blog. Your son Ben is just precious.

I will be praying for him now.

Since you know Jessica, I'm assuming you are on the PBT list.

My son is a BT survivor.

He was treated at St. Jude, surgery at Johns Hopkins.

We are from New Orleans, and was living in Mandeville when he was dx.

We were first seen by Dr. Coulon at Childrens.

Jordan was 16 at dx.

So nice to meet you. Praying HARD.

My husband and I have been praying for Ben and your family since Ben was three. I have asked many other people to pray for you as well. He is a beautiful little boy and you are all very brave.

May God bless you and keep you. May He shine His light upon you and give you peace.
