I just talked with dad and mom is definitely feeling better.
They are continuing to run tests and find solutions that will help her to feel better and gain strength. I talked with mom last night and she sounded 10 years younger over the phone. Her energy, appetite and outlook are all improving, almost by the hour.
They are now aggressively giving her fluids and shots of essential nutrients to help increase her natural abilities to fight the cancer. Dad said she had five shots this morning of things like vitamin B-12 and the like.
Last night, mom told me that she loves the place and the treatment that she is getting. She said that Dr. Perez is a "dynamo" and that he is "really going after it" for them. They feel like they are getting excellent care and attention. She also told me all about her meal yesterday that included some great salmon. She said the vegetables, nuts and berries, etc. are "pretty" and appealing to her. For those of you watching from afar, I can tell you that this is a HUGE thing as her appetite has been waning more and more in recent months to the point where she had almost stopped eating much of anything at all on a daily basis. So, for her to go on and on about food and what she is eating is great news to me.

Brian & Family,
We are encouraged by the news! We continue to hold Jane & David up to our Mighty God in prayer. I am glad that the doctors have acted quickly and are agressive in their treatment.
May God continue to pour out blessings through His SON.
Love to all,
Vicki & Mark
Want you all to know that Jane is continually in my thoughts and prayers as are each of you, her husband and all of the family. I pray that the new treatments are successful, that Jane and her husband will be able to return home and pursue a normal life again very soon. We all know that God is watching over her and blessing her with His great love and His loving care.
The family picture is beautiful and I know that Brian's mom and dad surely take great pride in having such a loving and caring family. They have surely been blessed with such a wonderful family who apparently pulls together in both good times and bad times. That is the way God intended for us to be, loving one another as He loves us.
Loving hugs and kisses to Caleb and Jushua and to each of you, Melissa and Brian.
Love,
Grandma Brown
