WONDERFUL NEWS ABOUT BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT FOR JADEN!!!

The Doc said that Jaden has "a lower PH Chromosome level in his bone marrow than in his blood..." He went on to say, "There is not an explanation for this, and I have never seen this before!" I told him, "Well, you know our Jaden... always surprising us with doing the opposite of what is expected! LOL!" Also, God is bigger than this cancer... and with all the prayers that Jaden is getting... God is working here!!! He agreed! So, I have been talking with Doctors all day, and this is a real blessing... No chemo right now... just what he is already on with Maintenance chemo. Praying for no RELAPSE, as the Doc said, "Jaden is a TICKING-TIME-BOMB" and he won't respond well if he relapses fully now." =( GOOD NEWS is that We have 7 potential matches... and Alex is doing the swab test in the next 24 hours. Hopefully she is a match, and she will be able to supply his new bone marrow. She is a 1/2 sibling, and the best chance of a good transplant. None of us are a match. We did have potential matches last time, but none were compatable... so please pray that the add testing required for the potential matches will be a "REAL MATCH"!! PRAISE GOD!!!! Looks like we will be going straight to a bone marrow transplant mid Jan. Jaden will be in-hosp for 4 to 6 weeks, and then in the Transplant room at the Ronald McDonald house for 100+ days after... wow! As I said to a friend earlier, "Maybe, just maybe... if Jaden can pull through we can have a "normal" life again???? I pray that this is true for Jaden, he is so brave... and I am so proud of him!!!" THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS, AND SUPPORT!!! KEEP PRAYING PLEASE????!!!~ Heath & kids xoxoox
