Full speed ahead!

The review board met this evening and discussed Janeen's treatment further, however more is being reviewed tomorrow before anything is confirmed. Due to the fact that adult medullablastoma is so rare they are covering all the bases.

Janeen will start simulation radiation tomorrow morning. She will be taken to a facility to get everything set up, measurements, markings, etc. before they begin. When discussing the side effects of the radiation, hair loss was brought up on several occasions from numerous doctors. They said if she was going to cut her hair to go ahead and do it because it would affect the measurements and calibrations. After talking it through, Janeen decided to go ahead and shave her head now instead of allowing it to come out in handfuls in the shower or bed (which would be really hard to go through). Janeen even reassured everyone that she's not worried about her hair. God love her! For those of you that don't know, Janeen and Jadeyn are big advocates of Locks of Love.... So much so that Jadeyn has no problem making you feel ashamed for having hair beyond the recommended cut-off length... So they plan to use Janeen's hair as a donation to Locks of Love.

Janeen has been a saint through all of this, nothing short of amazing. She has been lifted by your positive spirits, continued prayer and enlightening encouragement. Janeen and her family feel truly blessed to have you all behind them. Though she misses you all dearly, she is determined to beat her cancer and return home as soon as possible.

Per Janeen and her family's request.......Her new do......
