Easter Sunday

We hope you had a wonderful Easter with your family. We went to the 10:15 service where we learned "5 Things God Doesn't Know," then to my parent's house for Porterhouse steak. My mom is an amazing cook, just like my husband, so everything was delicious! (If you are curious about the "5 things," they are at the end of this post.)

We went to his oncologist this morning. They took blood and found that his counts are all in normal ranges. Yipee! We also found out he will have 3 more rounds of chemo, each spaced 4 -6 weeks apart. Seems that this is protocol. His second round starts the week of the 27th. He'll be hospitalized for 5 days to undergo 3 - 12 hour drips through an IV. He'll be released and be able to spend his recoup time at home. Being at home will be nice, however, with the white counts bottoming out again, there will be risk of infection and bouts with fevers. Like before, it's all going to be touch and go. He may have to be hospitalized for several days so they can control the fevers. Then again, maybe not.

We are still waiting to hear from Cleveland Clinic, where he'll spend the day for what seems to be a second opinion.

We were told we would have a long road ahead of us. Today it seems longer than we thought. That's okay. He's getting the treatment he needs so that we can have him for years to come.

Thank you again for your prayers. . .they are so powerful!

Warmly,
Mic, Wendy, Isaiah and Brianna


5 Things God Doesn't Know:
  1. A sinner He doesn't love John 3:16, Romans 5:8
  2. A sin that He doesn't hate Rom. 3:23; 6:23
  3. Any way that man can save himself Ephesians 2:8-9
  4. Any way to salvation except through the cross Colossians 2:13-14; Acts 4:12
  5. Any time better to be saved than today! 2 Corinthians 6:2; Isaiah 1:18
