The Gelosi Project
The news is actually better than I imagined. Jordan’s doctors are now very confident that what we see in the MRI scans is actually scar tissue. Based on the few patients similar to Jordan who have reached this stage and had biopsies, the tissue biopsied has been benign. Because there is no evidence of new growth, the doctors believe she really has kicked the disease’s butt. They are so confident, they want to remove her port after she has the leg surgery.
To say that we are happy is a gross understatement. We celebrated at El Cholo. Jordan beamed with pride. But true to form, when I congratulated her on her accomplishment, she said, “yeah, and I did great when I got my flu shot.” She appears to have won a 6-year war with cancer and what makes her proud? She didn’t cry when she got a flu shot. God, I love my daughter!
I am so glad for you, your family and especially Jordan. What an incredible example of courage, hope and love this is. Inspiring.
Fantastic news!
Joyous tears! What a Christmas present.
Yay yay yay! [I'm bouncing up and down excitedly here for you guys!!!!]
She’s a real champion. Go Jordan!!!

Dear Mal,
Thank you so much for all your words of encouragement this year. I shared your holiday message with Jordan and this is what she asked me to say to you. “Thank you for being my friend and helping me kick cancer’s butt. Merry Christmas. I hope it’s nice in Australia. Love, Jordan.”
