Update 9/21/07: University of Michigan Hospital called yesterday and informed Jenny that her cancer is back. She is no longer in remission. Please lift her in prayer. This was hard to hear, obviously. She has had NHL Lymphoma four times since September 11, 2000, which is her anniversary date of her first diagnosis.

Update 6/27/07: I wanted to let everyone know how my doctor's appointment went today. After viewing my CAT scans himself, he feels the best thing to do right now is to repeat the scans in three months and then see if there is any difference in the size of the lymphnodes in the groin area. He can't be sure at this point if the lymphoma is back or not. All of my blood work came back really good. So we will just continue to leave this in the Lord's hands and trust Him for the results. Thanks for the prayers and please continue to pray. I am blessed to have such an awesome church family.
Thank you and God Bless each one of you!

Update 6/13/07: Jenny had her CAT scans on Monday. Yesterday we received a call from U-M Hospital. It looks as if she has expansion growth in a few areas of lymph nodes again. They are moving her appointment with her oncologist up (ASAP). Probably the 26th instead of her originally scheduled July 2 day. It is then that they will confirm if the cancer is back or not. As it stands, it looks like it is. Pray up.
Luv all y'all.
Jackson Update 12/19/06: Jenny had her oncology check-up yesterday in Ann Arbor's U-M Cancer Center. Once again, there was an area of concern and once again it has been determined that it not an active cancer. Dr. Kaminski said that it is a nodule of some form that could be from many different things. He doesn't think that it is associated with the cancer at all. In his words, referring to the nodes, "I'm not impressed". If he's not... I'm not either.

Update 6/14/06: Jenny received a call from Judy Estes, Dr. Mark Kaminski's right hand woman, yesterday. Her tests, scans and blood work all came back "negative". This means that the cancer is still bye-bye and she is in remission. It has been about a year and a half since her Bexar treatment. Thanks to all for your concern, support and prayers for her!

Update 6/24/05: Jenny had her meeting with her oncologist on Monday, June 20. To be honest, we were concerned about one place in particular that was suspect. It is also the same place where the cancer was detected the three previous times that she was diagnosed. To God be the glory, the suspect area has been identified as scar tissue from the previous treatments and her scans and blood work declare her to be in a continued remission from B-Cell NHL Lymphoma Cancer. Thanks to all (again....still) for lifting her up in prayer.

Update 1/11/05: Jenny and I made our Tri-monthly pilgrimage to Ann Arbor yesterday to see her oncologist. I am pleased to announce that she is in a complete remission (again). We were thankful and relieved because there was a small unidentified area that was still showing up on the CAT scans. They have been dismissed as scar tissue after comparing these scans to previous scans. Glory to God in the HIGHEST!

Please join us in praising God and praying for continued remission! Update 1/04/05: Jenny is feeling fine right now in spite of the tiredness that goes with treatment. She is staying out of crowds for the time being until all of her blood counts come back to normal. Please continue to pray for healing. Update 12/02/04: Jenny's semi-isolation is over, praise God! Please continue to pray for peace, strength, and her complete healing. Update 11/24/04: Jenny is home after receiving the Bexxar treatment. Because the treatment is radioactive, she has to keep a considerable distance from everyone (even her kids) for the next 8 days. Please pray that the treatment is effective and for her spirits during this period of isolation. Update 11/22/04: "Pray up. Tomorrow is HUGE."
Jackson Update 11/13/2004: Thank you all for prayer and for asking about Jenny. She feels fine right now. The cancer was caught (again...3rd time) early because she has complete scans every three months. She will go into U-M Ann Arbor Cancer Center next Tuesday for a "tracer dose" of a substance called Bexxar. As long as her body handles it she will have a full treatment on Tuesday the 23rd. Bexxar is a fairly new treatment in the Lymphoma world but has had good results. Pray for the entire family. We have two children, 15 & 7. Our daughter (7 yr old) will be the most difficult to deal with during this time because Jenny has to be semi-isolated. Bexxar is a radioactive substance and she will emit gamma rays for 7-9 days. The kids have to stay 6-8 feet from her at all times, the rest of us most of the time. This is to protect our thyroids (the kids thyroids aren't fully formed yet until about 18 yrs of age). It all fire's up next week. Pray up. We're counting on it.
Love in CHRIST,
Jackson Baugh
