My wife, Erin, is one of seven. 6 weeks ago, Erin's niece, Kathleen, had her first child, Jackson. He is my wife's first great nephew. Jackson is Erin's sister's first grandchild. Erin's parents' first great grandchild. I am sure you all can imagine the excitement in the family. In the last week or so, the baby was not feeling right. His stomach was bloated and firm to the touch. The new mother took baby Jackson to the doctor. The doctor referred them to a specialist. There was a dye ran through Jackson's system and they found a mass on his liver. He was referred to Children's Hospital. Yesterday they did further tests. The doctors confirmed the mass on the liver was malignant. They also found growths on his kidneys. Today they will do a biopsy to determine what kind of cancer it is and determine treatment. My wife is on her way to Columbus to help support her niece and great nephew. My SIL and mother in law are already there. Support of family is helpful. Prayers from churches and friends is helpful.

Please keep my wife's niece and great nephew Jackson in your prayers. Every one of those prayers is appreciated. Very scary times for the new mother and all her friends and family.
