A Late Post Is Still Sometimes A Good Post!

I am very thankful to report that Middie Mom's report on Monday, February 13th at the HGC was MUCH BETTER than last week. Her red cells, white cells, platelets, hemoglobion, HCT, and ANC ALL came up some.  That was ONLY GOD!!!!!  Her platelets (that had dropped so drastically last week came up so drastically this week.  They are now perfect!  PTL!  She's also at a 0.6 for her counts!

 

THere were so difficult moments yesterday that spiked her blood pressure, BUT GOD ANSWERED OUR PRAYERS.  Even though they put the bracelet on her for a possible blood transfusion, she did NOT need one.  Even though the girl asked, "are you getting a bone marrow test,"  she did nOT.  Even though it took 3 tries (and two people) to get the chemo line in her arm, it's in and working!!!!  GOD IS SO GOOD!

 

Please keep praying for Middie Mom.  I  know the chem tires her, but GOd is giving her new strength.  Today the dr's nurse called and said Dr. Misleh looked further at her report and saw her magnesium was low (probably due to chemo)_, so, she now has to take 2 more pills.  Please pray that ALL her medicine will help her and NOT harm her body.  Also, she got her arasnap shot on Monday, so please pray GOd will use it to help her and not hurt her.

 

Please pray for Mom and Dad's safety in the tub.  We have tried SO MANY bath mats and none are holding properly.  Too many times they would have fallen if God had not spared them as I held on to them.  If anyone finds a REALLY GOOD MAT, please buy it and I will give you the money.

 

Also, please pray for Mom tonight.  She's going to try to sleep in her bed.  I'm going to sleep on the floor on pillows to help her in the night.  Her eyes must be really bad I (just like PP) and during the night they are worse.  Three times this week she had trouble getting to the toiiet in the middle of the night and I was holding her arm.  One time she tried to sit where there as NO TOILET.  Other t imes she's just missed walking into things. She gets up quite often so she really needs help.  Shje not object when I said that I was going to sleep on the floor to help her, and in the past , she always has.  So, I think she realizes she needs help. 

 

PLEASE KEEP PRAYING!  Dad has not been complaining about his legs, but I believe his focus is on Middie Mom.  I know this is very hard for both of them , so please keep praying.

Thank you all for all the different ways you show your love.  We love you all and are very grateful for you. 

 

Love and Prayers, AUntie Ann
