Prayers

Dear Friends and family,
I know I just updated but we talked with the MD again today. He said we can come home Wednesday! YEAH!! Brooke's antibiotics will be done Wednesday and he feels that many of her symptoms may subside when the meds are done. So our hope is to take her home Wednesday and wait that out. Because we have been so blessed by all of your prayers I want to ask you to also pray for some of the amazing family's we have met up there. Please pray for a little boy Braeden that has a tumor. They are continuing with radiation and hope that his counts come up so they can do chemo again. They have been there a month today. Pray for a little 4 year old girl that had a virus attack her spinal cord and is unable to walk. She went to Mary Free Bed today for therapy. And pray for a 10 month old little girl that had surgery today to remove a tumor on her spine. They hope to get as much of the tumor and then decide further treatment options. I have found the hematology/oncology floor works on prayers. It is such a peaceful and uplifting place to be. The physicians and staff are AMAZING!! Steve and I were some disappointed this weekend, but I realize it's not about us! We refuse to let the devil get to us! Everyone who reads this is amazing and you are all making a difference by reading this and being in our lives!! Thank you all our faithful prayer warriors!!

Hey Shelley,
I'm so happy to here you and your family may all be home again on Wednesday. If ever you need help with anything please call. The people you meet in the Hospitals sure are amazing people, we have met so many people over the years that made our story look like nothing, we will sure keep the families you mentioned in our prayers also. Hope to stop to see you with Nancy sometime.
