Update - Jorge Del Bosque

The office just talked to Matt and Alishia Blaine about Jorge.  He is weakening.  The doctors were going to start chemo on May 22 but his white blood count was low.  He does have a port in his chest and is right now on steroids to help bring his white blood count up.  They hope to start the chemo on June 1st. It will be a light dose to try to give him an extra week or two.  

Jorge’s main desire is to go out with strength and joy to show what real faith in God is.  He has no money to leave, so he wants to leave his faith as an example to others.  He also asks for strength so he can keep going out to teach. 

Right now, Jorge is living with Matt’s brother and sister-in-law, Pat and Danielle Blaine.  Matt & Alishia have promised Jorge that he will stay out of the hospital and live with them and with Matt’s brother.  When he starts the chemo, it will be in a satchel so he will not need to be in the hospital for it.
