Update



Just got home from the hospital and the news is good and Justin looks great. Justin came through surgery great. The tumor was located in his 12th rib and was very close to the 11th rib so they removed both and put a wire mesh sheild to protect his liver and kidney. The pathology report showed that the tumor itself was actually dead which is the best news. The chemo has been working. So after a few days in the hospital Justin will start the next round of chemo. Thanks do much for all the prayers and good wishes. Justin and his family truly appreciate them all.

I'm happy to hear all is turning out so well. This crap is hard and he is so young with a lot of life to live. He will have a story full of hope someday.
