Another Port

Jeff's body is now stable enough to handle neurosurgery, and he will be getting the Ommaya reservoir "installed" on Thursday. This port will give the medical staff easy access to Jeff's central nervous fluid for the purposes of administering chemo and for sampling the fluid to make sure it remains leukemia-free. The neuro guys tell us that the procedure is pretty simple and Jeff's stay at the hospital should only be about 23 hours.

Other than a little bit of neurosurgery, we're hoping to have an uneventful week. We're still working out insurance issues, but I'm hoping to have a solution sorted out very soon.

JD is still the most lovable creature on the planet, and his dimples can brighten my day in no time at all. I'll have to post some more pictures soon.
