Ann's Update: Mold In The Basement

Hello Family!

 

We praise God for HIS CONTINUAL WATCHFUL CARE for Mom and Dad. 

 

Today's GREAT NEWS ---gifts from our Lord!

#1.  Mom's platelets came up even more today!  PTL!

#2.  Mom's red cells and hemoglobion came down a little, but they were too good to get her weekly arasnap shot (so she hasn't had that shot for two weeks now.  PTL!!!!

#3.  She had to have a bone marrow test today and God helped her through it.

 

we don't want any of these things floating around!

Prayer Requests:

#1.  Her white cells came down .1 and her anc that fights infection is still 0.  HOWEVER, we praise God that when Dr. Misleh checked her blood under the mircroscope,  her anc was 200 which is .2.  We want it to be AT LEAST 1000.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the mold in our basement is getting out of hand

#2.  She is continuing on her preventive antibotic, but the dr. is adding an additional, very expensive antibiotic because our house is old and her white cells have been down for a while.  (I asked if we should move and he said NO.  I did say we have mold in the basement too.  I'm keeping the cellar door closed and opening it only when the cat needs to go down to use the bathroom.) We are going to try to get it hermetically sealed.  (HCC Industries)

 

 

 

 

 

#3. The antibiotic fights fungi.  Now, without their insurance, it would cost them $3,000 each month (amounts redacted by Pork).  We praise God for their insurance.  With their insurance, they still have to $400+ the first month and $120+ the rest of the months.  PLEASE PRAY she will have NO complications with this antibiotic.  It could give hallucinations!

 

 

 

 

 

 

#4.  If her bone marrow is good and the blast are there, the dr. wants to start the second dose (a lower dose) of chemo on Monday.  PLEASE pray that our GOD will help her make the right decision about her treatment that will help her and not hurt her. If she does have the treatment, please pray that God will touch it and it will NOT HARM HER BODY.

 

 

#5. continue to pray for Dad.  His legs are hurting very badly, we need him to go to the eye doctor, and his shaking gets worse when he 's nervous.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks again for YOUR WONDERFUL SURPRISE after your TRAIN RIDE and for

your "through the window" visit, phone calls, and mostly your prayers.  We are so thankful for all God is doiing.  Our hope is in Him.

 

We love you all!

 

Love and Prayers,

Ann

 

P.S.  Because of Mom's anc, I will be off at least through Monday.  The school nurse advises me NOT to come into the building.  Thank God that my principal and the district  have been great about my absences.
