Exciting News!!!

Jordan can now eat real food! His first meal in five weeks was tuna, tomatoes with ranch, a roll with butter, and milk to wash it down! Wally was bringing him a chicken teriyaki bowl from Jack in the Box, at his request. He said "it's gonna be good!"

He is now able to walk around a little. He's taking baby steps to use the bathroom. He was able to take a shower yesterday. While in the bathroom washing his hands today he looked in the mirror and said "it's gettin' bald" of course meaning his hair. He's alright with it though.

He will have chemo and a bone marrow test tomorrow. No g-tube. They don't want to risk a collapsed lung while inserting the tube, so they decided against it for now (the mass is still putting pressure on his lung). The CT results still show the mass, obviously. They are looking to move him again soon, and are still looking for a good rehab center close by.
