MIRACLES ARE HAPPENING


Thanks to everyone for your faith and prayers in our behalf this past week. Because of you miracles are indeed beginning to happen. As bleak as my post of last week was, this week is one of hope and optimism. I guess that is the crazy nature of this roller coaster ride we are on. Never one to miss a chance to shout out the good, here we go for this week. Our meeting with the Doctor resulted in all good news. The Gancyclovir is doing it's job, lab tests are now negative for CMV. No platelets or blood were needed and the white blood count has gone from 2.1 to 3.3. The Dr. had planned on doing a bone marrow biopsy but said it wasn't necessary at this time, he would wait until nearer our 100 days. We even were given permission to have a salad, WOW! Mom loved the salad and although still not feeling great is pleased to celebrate the moment. We are far from out of the woods, but are now moving in the right direction once again. Keep those prayers flying heavenward and with the miracle continuing, we'll be home for Fathers Day. We love you all and continue to "MOVE FORWARD WITH FAITH".

HOORAY!!!!!!! GREAT news! I can't believe that is nana and grandaddy's old house! Where are the clovers? Where is the mail slot in the door that Jeff stuck a running hose through? I can hardly recognize it. All I can say is there better still be a tangerine tree in the back and a huge sand lot with a rusty old swing set off in the corner!

Thank you for this post. This is what we have been praying for. We were gone for a couple of days and this is post was the perfect homecoming gift. We love you both so much and will continue our prayers in faith and gratitude.

THIEF! I love this house, it is so cute. So is this the house that Jon drove to numerous times for family functions that had the "big brown brick wall" on the freeway that always let him know you were almost there?

I'm so happy that mom is doing better--we keep praying.
