Update...{May 18, 2013}

On Thursday May 16th, Jane's doctors successfully inserted a stent in Jane's left ureter to alleviate the urinary tract blockage.  The operation was under a general anesthesia, and Jane came through it like a champ.  The urology doctors were satisfied with the results and will see Jane on a follow up basis in three months. Jane's pain level is manageable, and we are very thankful for the medical care she received.

Going forward, as the status of Jane's cancer has disqualified her from the clinical drug trial she has been on for the past 18 months, Jane will take a short break to attend to the details surrounding her son's high school graduation from Strake Jesuit College Prep in Houston, Texas.  Afterwards, Jane will likely start a new chemotherapy regime this summer consisting of a combination of a couple of traditional chemotherapy drugs.  Jane's doctors believe this is the best course of action at this point. 

We want to again thank everyone for so much support and prayers.  We really could not have arrived at this point alone so many thanks again!
