Cancer update~23 days ago the Dr's shared that Justin had cancer....


This is a quick update~it is 9:00 pm and we are just getting home from Boston.

Dr. Bruce Johnson is Justin's Oncologist at Dana Farber.  (for more information on Dr. Johnson check out this link  https://www.dana-farber.org/find-a-doctor/bruce-e-johnson/)  He is known world wide and is the top man in his field. 

 Dr. Johnson shared so much information with us, that our heads were spinning. But what it boils down to is:
Justin -who is 25 years old, and never smoked a cigarette in his life and grew up in a home with NO smokers DOES HAVE LUNG CANCER!
WHY????? We do not know at this time.

He has tumors in his lower left lung lobe, in his lower right lung lobe, and a 1 inch+ in his upper right lobe.

More "genetic make-up" (of the cancer) testing will be needed and we are still waiting for the "genetic make-up" mapping that is at the Mayo Clinic to come back...that information is expected Dec. 4th...we need all this information for a treatment plan.  He also maybe part of clinical trials.

Thank-you so much for the prayers....I have more to share, but it is late and I need to sleep.

God Bless you all:)
Glory to God, thank-you Mother Mary
+JMJ+ pray for Justin
