November 4th

Hello All,

Jess had a good day today. In fact she made Jon and me walk 5 laps around the floor! lol. The chemo from yesterday isn't as intense as when she gets it in the IV. The doctors said the steroids are the reason she has this sudden burst of energy. They actually make her edgy and she was unable to sleep last night, so they gave her two sleeping pills to help make her more comfortable. The doctor came in when I was here today and he is hoping that he can let her leave next Tues or Weds to go stay at Jon's Grandma's friend's apartment. Then she would have to come back for her treatments. He said that it is a big IF because she has an open lesion (the tumor) in her mouth. He said that he is afraid it might get infected when her blood count goes down. So we are just hoping for the best and her possible escape from the hospital for a few days! I also went to look at some wigs today, but it wasn't open yet, so I just window shopped. I saw some super cute and nice ones that I think Jess may like, so I am excited to go an look for her when it is open. That is all the info for now. Thank you all for following Jess' story and getting on here to support her.

Keep up all the prayers and God Bless.
