Dear Family and Friends,

I try not to write too much lately, because I really do not want become to overbearing to you all. I appreciate all the love you have all given us, and am indebted to you all.

So, I will keep this short and please know I love each and every one of you dearly.

I need your prayers once again. Jimboy has started having tremors in his left and right arms. We are trying not to get to alarmed over this, hoping and praying. We are hoping that this is just post radiation swelling. So please, please, please pray hard for our boy tonight and tomorrow.

Tonight his tube got pulled out about 2" so we will admit him tonight to put that back in position and have an MRI in the morning tomorrow. This poor kid, I love him so much. I really am so amazed by his strength.

I will let you all know. This is very scary for Jim and I. Even though we have been down this road before, each time still feels like the first time.

Hug your kids, and May God Hold You Close Always, Gina

It is with GREAT JOY that I get to report that the tumor is stable and we can relax a bit. We got the word this morning when all the final reports were in. We are so happy today. . . one day at a time. The neurological stuff could be the brain reorganizing itself, no one can really answer what is going on. So we will just keep an eye out and enjoy family life again. It really is a rollercoaster, but it really feels good when I can have great news. So, I will be in touch with those of you who would like to some little projects for the kids at the hospital.

Much love to you all, and please enjoy the day for the Arena's.

God Bless and Keep Praying, Love, Gina
