Pray for Jess to be Comfortable

Jess was pretty uncomfortable today-- she couldn't get comfortable in her bed and just plain felt lousy. Please pray that she would feel better tomorrow I know that would lift her spirits. There were several things to be thankful for today. There were two new developments: 1st Jess started feeling good tingles down her legs ( I say good because before she lost the use of her legs she was feeling bad tingles that felt like her legs were going to sleep) and 2nd she was able to tell which direction the doctor was moving her toes. The oncologist came into tonight and was able to help Jess understand what was going to happen next (thank you Wendy for praying for this specifically). She was feeling aprehensive about not having a plan and he helped her feel much calmer. Here's the plan: stabilize her backbone with rods and screws. In about two weeks radiate the three problem areas in her vertebrate-- one in her neck, one in her mid-back (we found out from him that she actually has fractures in that area on vertebrae that were not taken out), and one in her lower back. They will also radiate her hip which (and I'm sorry I don't know which parts were broken) is broken in several places. In the meantime they are going to be treating her cancer systemically with hormone therapy. Hormone therapy is generally not very aggressive and usually takes awhile to have an effect, but her oncologist (actually she also has another oncologist here who is a female) wants to be treating her while Jess is healing from surgery. He said he would tell us more details about the hormone therapy tomorrow. Thank you for your prayers!!!!!!!!!
