Update

So I know many of you are waiting on MRI results. Well they are not good. The tumor has grown since the last scan in early August. So we didn't do chemo today, no point since its not working and we have to be off chemo for a few weeks before we can start something new. So tonight we wait for a call from Ben's oncologist to find out what is next. Basically our only options are Phase I clinical trails so we wait to find out which one we are qualified for and if we are excepted. Right now it looks like Baylor (Texas Children's) or St Jude. We will update when we have a plan. Thank you for your continued prayers. Please no calls tonight, texts are fine but we are just tired of repeating ourselves today so we aren't really up for chatting.

Love and Prayers
Erin
