Here is a picture of us celebrating Kayla’s 17th birthday with some family & friends a couple weeks ago - Aaron is at the far head of the table.

Good evening Team Aaron Prayer Warriors,

September was an amazing month of Recovery for Aaron! After surgery, hospital & rehab hospital, he was discharged to home health. Each week Aaron has been making significant progress! He’s now "graduated" from HH, and is on the wait list for outpatient therapy - mostly for Speech. They are using words like "apraxia" and "aphasia", which means the words are in there, just needs a little help getting out. However even in these areas he continues to improve. The numbness on the right side of his body has all but disappeared. He is even working on computer design again – maybe a slower pace than before, but still improving. All of this is completely miraculous! We are so thankful for you holding us up in prayers, thoughts, words and deeds. We could not have gotten through this time without you.

The next step is to treat the remaining tumors.

In August, Aaron & I consulted with Dr. Michael Castro, an out-of-network NeuroOncologist, who specializes in the biochemistry of brain tumors. He spent a lot of time reviewing Aaron’s 7-year case, and all of his genetics, and spent almost 2 hours explaining how Aaron is a great candidate for standard of care treatments. Especially if he adds in other therapeutic agents that come in the form of mega doses of botanicals and other supplements. After surgery in September, we met with (in-network) Radiation Oncologist Dr. Eugene Ahn, who showed us that Aaron is also a great candidate for eradicating the remaining tumor with radiotherapy.

We are so thankful for meeting both of these wonderful doctors, and have a peace about both of these suggested courses of treatment.

So, tomorrow Aaron will start daily Temodar (chemo) and 5x per week radiation treatments, which will go over a course of 6 weeks. This is in addition to taking the recommended therapeutic agents. We are believing in a healing outcome for Aaron.

Prayer Requests

Here’s our bold ask: Please pray that the treatments will remove all the remaining tumor - and that Aaron would have no short-term nor long-term side effects! One of the prayers I’ve been leaning into was spoken over the tumors: “From today, you’re not going to grow, you’re going to shrivel, and you will never return again.” Please join us in praying over Aaron’s healing, recovery & rehabilitation.

Please pray for wisdom for us & Aaron’s doctors.

Please pray that Aaron's spirit would remain encouraged. Please feel free to send him encouragement, whether through me or to him directly.

Even though we do have a peace about this, I happen to find myself nervous today. Please pray for my belief and trust, and that I would not be in bondage to any anxiety.

Please continue to pray for finances for our family, as our income has been suffering since Aaron has been unable to work this year. Thankfully a lot of Aaron's recent medical care has been covered by insurance, but we still have a good amount of out-of-pocket medical expenses.

Needs

Rides: As Aaron will have daily medical appointments, both in and out of town over the next 6 weeks, and isn’t currently able to drive, we could probably use help with rides for him.
Meals: Our church small group has set up a meal train, which would bless our family so much while Aaron is undergoing treatments - https://www.mealtrain.com/trains/q52rqr

Thank you for taking the time to read this update, and consider our Prayer Requests. I can testify that your prayers are carrying us through this difficult situation – God is giving us courage at each turn. We are humbled and forever thankful for you. We pray that God would carry you through your difficult situations, as we know God is able to do exceedingly abundantly more than we can ever ask or imagine!

Much Love & Hugs,

Jennifer & Aaron Robinson
