The news

The scan results showed that Jeff's cancer has continued to grow and spread.  The trial medicine did not help in the least.  This is the moment we have been bracing for.  Jeff doesn't have much longer.  Although I love it that God gets to ultimately make that call - not any doctor. But it is very sad news for us.  We were trying to hold on to the hope of more time through the trial.  But it was not to be.  So here's what we know.
Jeff feels good enough to work everyday. And he will continue to until he can't.
Jeff's pain is being managed.
His brain scan was clear which is very good news.  You just don't want cancer to get in your brain!
His counts are still low so we don't know if any other treatments will be available to him.  That is a choice only Jeff can make.  He wants to spend as much quality time as possible with his family and friends.  We will know more about other options this week.
If you love Jeff and want to spend some time with him - this is the time to do it.
Jeff isn't really into "good-byes".  But he would love to talk about all the good times!
If he borrowed something from you (a hammer, a plow?) you better come get it. Ha ha
Don't be afraid to see him.  It's still Jeff.  Scrappy, ornery, still loves a dirty joke.  He is loving life as long as he can.  No regrets!  Just counting his blessings daily, hourly, sometimes every minute.
Please pray for our kids, for Luke and Gracie and Jake.  Please take care of them when they are near you.  I am putting you all in charge.  I can't be with them every second although I wish I could.

Struggling,
Jeff and Leta
