Parents Thankful for Child's Miraculous Recovery

Jace at his first Houston Astros baseball game in July, and Jace today.

Back in February, Signal readers learned of the plight of little Jace Sandoval who was diagnosed with a rare form of brain cancer. Jace is the son of former KFTX "Real Country" remote events coordinator "Big Josh" Sandoval. We asked readers to send donations to Jace's medical fund and to pray for his rapid recovery. We are happy to share this update, sent via email, by Joshua Sandoval.

Hello Everyone,

We just received some news that made us Drop To Our Knees in Praise and Weep with Happiness!

Jamie has been hounding me to ask the Dr. EVERYDAY, how one knows when a patient is able to be a candidate for "Remission"???? So this morning, when he came by to do the "Omaya Reservoir" procedure on Jace, I asked him. "Dr., when is it that you would know that Jace is a candidate for Remission????" he proceeds to tell me that "Remission is a Term he typically uses for Leukemia and Lymphoma Patients"....

So, I nod my head yes and say "I understand" he then mentions... Jace's Case is different so I can't say that he is in Remission cause Remission means "subsiding of the symptoms of a disease"... He proceeds to tell me if I had to call it something, I would refer to it as "JACE HAS NO EVIDENCE OF ILLNESS!!!"

His past 3 MRI's show no change, the past 6 Tests on his "CSF - Central Spinal Fluid" have come back showing no Malignant Cells, and the Pathologist Report from Monday (10-22) on his CSF has come back Negative!

Did we hear correctly???????? "NO EVIDENCE OF ILLNESS?!??!?!?!?!" That's the words straight out of the Dr.'s mouth.......

He also mentioned that the hardest thing for Dr's to do is figure out "how many treatments is "enough" and "when to stop"" Well in Jace's Pilot study, all information is taken from patients going 10 rounds of chemo, so we will continue on with 3 more treatments. Well, that is the plan right now unless something changes and Dr. decides to do less. But for now we continue through 3 more rounds of chemo which will bring us to April, Jace's 3rd Birthday!

Thanks again to everyone for their continued Prayers and Support!!! It means more than you will ever know! We Love You All!!!

Praise God, Praise God, Praise God!!!!!!!!!
