Griffin is scheduled at 8:45AM

Gretchen and Jon left for the hospital at 6AM for the scheduled appointment at 8:45 this morning. Griffin is H-U-N-G-R-Y. He had to stop eating since last night. The port-a-cath will be placed into the upper region of his chest. Left or right side is still to be determined. During the time that he is under general anesthesia he will also be receiving a bone aspiration, a spinal tap, and methotrexate placed into the spine. Direct all your energies to defeating 'this Monster.' Please continue to poor your prayers out to Griffin and his family. Pray that the Doctors and staff are successful while working on Griffin. Pray that Jon and Gretchen continue their endurance and strength. Pray that Griffin comes home safe and with minimal discomfort.

Hey Maks Family!
Just wanted to let you guys know that we're always thinking of you all. It was so nice to see you both at the 50th anniversary party. We were happy to see you both high-spirited. Stay strong. Hugs and kisses to the kids, especially Griffin!

Thinking of you all! Hope all goes smoothly and Griffin is back home snug in his bed in no time! We'll be in your shoes tomorrow when Hannah goes in for her lensectomy and cataract removal.
