Jake is still struggling since the 40 hour return from India. He had caught some type of bug and got dehydrated and ended up in the hospital. Although he is recovering a little each day, he is off his feet a lot and has lost considerable muscle tone which makes it hard for him to walk. We have decided to try Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment at: http://www.sandiegocenterforhyperbarictherapy.com
Dr. Kumar believes that about 4 to 5 days of this therapy will help reduce brain edema (swelling) caused by the large amount of treatment that was necessary to stop Jakes tumors from growing out of control. We hope that the treatment will "kick start" Jake back into recovery and that he will soon be strong enough to finish the last of the treatments at the research center in Bangalore in January.
