From Gordon's Facebook Entries:

UPDATE:

Just spoke to the oncology team (without Dr. Finlay who is out of the country). They say the fact that Lauren is becoming responsive and breathing on her own is an improvement, but doesn't make a difference. They are saying that the tumor is growing and is changing into a grade 4.

They say that Lauren has been telling us she is done fighting (becoming withdrawn, not talking) for awhile now. Her body is giving out. They said it's been a miracle that she has lasted this long.

After allowing ourselves to believe in "hope," it is hard to let her go. It is our hope now that she can breathe well enough on her own to bring her home so that she can be in her own bed.

Morning Facebook post:

Everyone's prayers must be working!!!

Lauren has shown some improvements. She does react to some stimuli, but does not follow command. While still on the machine, she appears to be doing some breathing on her own.

Keep the prayers coming. Thank you!
