Subject: Update from Linda on Jim

HIP HIP HOORAY!
HI ALL...JIM GAINED ANOTHER POUND! HE IS GETTING JUST 2 DOSES OF RADIATION EVERY DAY NOW SO HE IS HAVING LESS AND LESS TROUBLE WITH THE MUCOUS. I GOT HIM TO EAT A CUP OF FOOD PER MEAL NOW AND A 1/2 BANANA WITH HIS BREAKFAST AND HE'S BACK ON HIS BIG BOWL OF JELLO MID AM. HE STILL CAN'T TASTE MUCH SO I NOW HAVE HIM WORKING ON RELEARNING THE DIFFERENT TEXTURES AND SMELLS OF FOOD AND IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING. I ALSO MADE HIM FOCUS ON EATING THE WAY HE HAS TO FOCUS WHEN HE PLAYS SOFTBALL! IT GIVES HIM SOMETHING ELSE TO THINK ABOUT INSTEAD OF ALL THE HORRID NEGATIVE STUFF HE HAD FILLED HIS MIND WITH AND IT SEEMS TO HAVE WORKED. I HAD TRIED SOMETHING SIMILAR DURING WEEK FOUR WHEN HE STARTED TO GIVE UP HIS FIGHT AGAINST THE CANCER BUT HIS MINDSET WAS FAR TOO STRONG. WHEN HE GOT TO THE WEAKEST POINT I WAS ABLE TO 'SOCK IT TO HIM' AND HE HELD ON AND LET IT SINK INTO HIS STUBBORN BRAIN AND voila! I'M GRATEFUL THAT GOD MADE ME MORE STUBBORN THAN JIM BECAUSE HE REALLY WAS AT A VERY BAD AND DANGEROUS PLACE LAST WEEK. HE WAS `THIS CLOSE TO HAVING TO BE HOSPITALIZED FROM HIS OWN DOING AND WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE DEALT WITH VERY MUCH THE WAY AN ANOREXIC IS DEALT WITH...NOT A FUN THING! NOW WE ARE WORKING ON THE COUNTDOWN...6 TREATMENTS TO GO!
GOD BLESS YOU! MAY NOTHING BUT HAPPINESS COME THROUGH YOUR DOOR!
LOVE, LINDA & JIM

PS- Linda also sent this today-

GOD, I AM ASKING YOU TO GIVE BETTY AND ANGIE AND ALL OF OUR PRAYER GIVERS, EXTRA SPECIAL BLESSINGS. THEY HAVE HELPED MY JIM AND ME SO MUCH AS WE FACED THE AWFUL CANCER MONSTER. WE WILL NEED THEIR HELP THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE NEXT 12 MONTHS TO REACH THE 85% SURVIVAL AND RAISE IT TO 100% CURED! WE TRUST IN YOUR LOVE AND THAT OF OUR LORD, JESUS WHO WILL BE RETURNING TO US. AMEN
