Prayer Request for Austin - age 15 (sad update at #3290)

Posted on 11/19/2006 9:04:04 PM PST by PhatHead

More than two years ago, I asked for your prayers for my son, who was undergoing treatment for a malignant brain tumor. His treatment at the time, though physically brutal, was successful. However, Austin's cancer has returned, and he will be going back into radiation and chemo soon - he had surgery last week.

This is so hard - he pretty much missed Middle School with this, and now here goes High School. Pray for him to enjoy college...

We will very much appreciate all of your prayers. Thanks you.

Pax Christi.

Just a short update to all - bump and ping as you see fit...

Austin is going in for surgery Friday (the 2d) to place a central line in his chest. Over the next few days, he'll be receiving some drugs (GCSF) that will enable the doctors to harvest his own stem cells to be stored for later. His next phase of treatment is a high dose chemo which will drop his blood counts below the point where people can recover naturally. He will receive his own stem cells back at that time to enable him to recover.

We don't yet know the date when this phase will start, but we are closer now. He'll be home to watch the Super Bowl on Sunday, but at the doctor's office very day (including the weekend.)

I want to thank you all again for your prayers - I truly cannot tell you how much it means to us.
