The Journey Continues:Chemo and Job like circumstances

Another Chemo under Richard's belt.  I know he is ready to be done.  He is tired of it!!  He is ready to be normal.  Please pray for him, not only for the cancer to go away but that God will take away his Job like circumstances.

His counts yesterday were still good.  White counts better than last time, red counts down but not enough for a transfusion.  Platelets are normal.  He will continue  IVIG infusions, those counts had dropped since last visit.  Last time the doctor had told him that as long as he is on the chemo those will probably stay down.

Richard has not felt very well, so he had a chest ex-ray yesterday and some extra blood work.  No results yet.  He will have another chemo in three weeks and than three weeks after that he will have a pet scan.

Thanks so much for the prayers!! They so very much help Richard through this journey!!!

“Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you. Jeremiah 32:17 NIV
