Update from Jak

Another two weeks have gone by since my last update and not a lot has happened.   We are still going to the hospital each day for treatment and then returning to Ronald McDonald House South Island. 

James has met his teacher Lisa  from Health School South Island and has started doing work each day. He does maths online and has english exercises to do as well as reading.  

Alii and I are doing a head shave for the Child Cancer Foundation on the 24 March - donations have reached $700 thus far which I am excited about - we hope to raise at least $1000.

James is in good spirits - sometimes he feels a little sick and gets headaches from the treatment but otherwise is doing very well. 

We are looking forward to next week as we will meet the Crusaders at a Child Cancer Foundation fundraiser and where Simon Barnett is the host.

Thank you everyone for all your prayers and support - it is a long journey for us - but with everyone's help we will be able to get through it.
