The Facts:

I (Kristen Baumgarten) wanted to post on this blog to give anyone who might be interested an update.

We went back to Salt Lake last Wednesday to see Josh's doctors, and for an MRI.

So here's the latest:

• Josh's tumor has shrunk by a little over a centimeter. It was 4.5cm and is now 3.4cm. 
• He finished another cycle of Temodar (chemotherapy)
• He will start another cycle of Temodar in about 21 days from today
• He will continue to receive an infusion every two weeks as part of the study he is participating in. (It is a double blind study, and we aren't sure if he is receiving Avastin or saline)
• He will not have another MRI until September unless there is a need for one. 
• We are fine, just taking one day at a time.
• We are still overwhelmed and completely humbled by all that has been and continues to be done for our family. We continue to pray for blessings to be upon each of you for helping us carry the burden.

"'Our family’s faith is in Jesus Christ and is not dependent on outcomes.' 

...We do all that we can for the healing of a loved one, and then we trust in the Lord for the outcome."  

-Elder Dallin H. Oaks
