First Hyperbaric Treatment

Jake had his first Hyperbaric oxygen treatment today. For this session they decided not to take him to maximum pressure but to see how he did and slowly increase the pressure in subsequent visits. He did fine and stayed up till 9pm tonight. Usually he would be sleeping a lot more. Hopefully this treatment will reduce his swelling (edema) and help to continue to choke off any residual tumors until we return to Bangalore hopefully some time in January.

Sounds good Dan. Once the swelling is down things should improve. Wes
