US Senator Mike Rounds is on KELOland news this week, updating South Dakota on his wife’s Jean’s health as she battles a rare form of cancer:
“I’ve been with her during her cancer treatments, she has a sarcoma which is a very challenging type of cancer. It’s one in a hundred, but our doctors in South Dakota had referred us to Mayo, we got to Mayo and they’ve taken charge, she’s gone through two series of treatments already with chemo, she’s handled them well, we believe it’s already made a difference in the size of the tumor that had been discovered to begin with so we think we are on the right path,” Rounds said.
and…
“If she tolerates them well and if we see an improvement after the second one, and we are convinced right now they will, then they’d like to try probably a third one and based on how well that one goes maybe even a couple more, but in the meantime they’ve also told us to expect radiation treatment as well after that,” Rounds said.
Rounds feels grateful for all the support.

Please continue to keep the Rounds family in your prayers.
May the Lord give Jean the strength, her family the patience and her doctors the wisdom they need on this journey. Amen
God speed!
