January 23rd MRI and Dr.'s Appointment

Today was another follow-up MRI and appointment for Travis at MD Anderson. Dr. Degroot, the oncologist, said everything looked "outstanding" on the scans and that all margins looked clean. He also thinks Travis is doing "outstanding" overall. His only concern was that Travis' blood pressure was quite elevated. He would like for Travis to monitor it for this coming week and then if needed he will be place on blood pressure medication. We think that under the circumstances and the MD Anderson environment would cause any one's BP to be high!

A special thanks to you all for your continued prayers and to God for his continuous grace in our lives.

Travis and Jennifer

Praise God!! That is wonderful news. Jennifer I bet if they had taken your blood pressure it would have been elevated too. All the excitement of driving, parking, and walking around MD Anderson could raise anyones BP.
I will be praying for the BP to be normal.

This is wonderful news!! You and your family will always be in our hearts and prayers!! We'll continue to hope that your BP will return to normal. With everything you've been through and going back and forth to MD Anderson, it would raise anyone's BP.

Long time no talk....just heard about what is going on and I am praying for you daily.

My wife recently got sick which is what prompted someobdy to let me know of your situation.

Looks like you have some good news in the short term and I hope that it continues.

Plese give your family my best. The power of prayer is mighty and I know you have a lot of people praying for your daily. Add another to that list.
