The results came back from my biopsy and and it wasn't what we had hoped for. The spots on my liver are indeed cancer. This means I am back in stage 4 and the outlook the Dr's have are not good. They are thinking I probably have about year left before it takes me out. It turns out the God wants me more than we thought. I'm not sure why he wants we now but I want everyone to realize there is a reason for everything and we have to trust in him that some good will come from this. I understand that this is hard to grasp but don't be mad or think this unfair cause it is part of life and I am OK with it. I'm not happy about it believe me but Ill manage.
I am moving to a new Dr. over in the Hulen area of Fort Worth to get my treatments much closer to home. I will be resuming chemo to slow the growth but that is about all they can hope for is to just slow it down. I will probably go in for one day about every 3-4 weeks. Don't worry I am still a fighter and will not give up.
This has been so tough to tell everyone y'all have stood behind me with your prayers and I know you will continue to be there for me. I don't know if I said the right things or not its tough, but please do not let this effect your faith cause mine is as strong as ever.
God Bless
Jake

I am praying for a miracle. Love you Jake...and you always stay in my prayers everyday! Keep fighting sweetie! You have always been strong!
Wanted to add one more thing. Jake you are amazing...never forget that. Your faith is so strong and you are an inspiration to all of us!
Jake, Uncle Don & I have you on the church prayer list and we had prayer for you last night at our midweek service. I am so proud to have you as a great nephew. I know none of this is easy for you or your folks. We are there for you even though we live so far away. You are an amazing young man. All things work to the glory of God. Think of all you are reaching with this blog ministry that might not be touched by the Word of God.
With His Love, Grace & Mercy

Jake - I don't know what to say - I'm really taken back by this news. I've never stopped praying for you and my prayers will continue. You're a fighter Jake - continue to be strong and keep the faith that God has a plan for you - he never gives us more than we can handle. You're a true inspiration.
Jake, I was shocked by the news when Kevin told me this morning, but I know you are strong and will never stop fighting. Thank you for being such and inspiration to us all. Tristan and I love you, never forget that.

Keep faith, friend. You wear the name of Christ well as you face this. Whatever comes, you have done well, and from what I know through your father, you will not falter. Our Father in Heaven Bless you, and may He, who can do all things, touch you and bring about His Glory in your life, and praise to our lips. We pray, and will continue to do so, for God's miraculous. friends in Houston
The Jake that I knew when we were 2 years old was a fighter, has since been a fighter, and I know that you will continue to be. I'm praying for you. I'm always here if you need anything at all.
Love you,
Ashley
I haven’t written to you earlier because I didn’t and still don’t really know what to say. Sometimes “I’m sorry” just won’t cut it. But if you ever want to talk about it or how you’re feeling or even just about the last movie you saw I’ll be here for you. You have an amazing personality, and strong friends, family and faith. Those are things that cancer can’t take away from you.
Love, Rose xoxo
Praying for you harder than ever man...your friends at Southwest Christian Church. Keep up that attitude!
Never forget that you are JAKE and you can hope for more.

I am still praying for you every day, Jake. You are an inspiration to everyone around you! This a vibe about you that everyone wants ... your FAITH! God has a plan for everyone and you need to know that you have touched many, many people with this fight!

Your outlook on this is nothing short of amazing, I don't know how you do it, but I respect you a ton...and even look up to you (just a little, haha)...we're still all praying for a miracle!
I just want to tell you that I am here and I am very inspired by you and your faith.
Never give up! Miracles can and do happen. You're certainly still in our personal prayers and on the Summit/St. Paul prayer list. Your faith is amazing--what an inspiration to all. Love to you, your parents, and Sarah.
I attend church with Bret Duke and our church is praying for you. My prayer is for healing. Amazed to see how your faith is able to touch so many. God is worthy of our praise, always. Not always easy, but he is worthy.
I know you don't know me but I am a friend of Rose.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and remember to never give up!
You CAN beat this cancer no matter what the doctors tell you.It is up for you and GOD to decide!
:)
Jake, I am praying for a miracle. You are such an inspiration. I love you, Jill
The Lord's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him.
