"God's agenda continues to unfold right on schedule" (Swindoll)
"Not one of the good promises which the Lord had made...failed, all came to pass." Joshua 21:45
Katrina and Louis went to get her blood work done locally this AM. I got her text message saying her platelets were 27. That is not anywhere near being high enough for her to be hospitalized this week for her final chemo. (They need to be at least 60) We realized again the toll chemo has taken on her body. Please continue to pray they reach at least 60 very soon. We were all disappointed today thinking they would have gone up quite a bit more but recovery has slowed, and that is not unexpected.
Tomorrow we are going to MD Anderson early for blood labs, a routine x-ray, and to meet with her doctor. Her hemoglobin dropped significantly the past couple of days so we're prepared to stay for a blood transfusion tomorrow also. Her body aches are not nearly as bothersome but still present so please pray they would stop.
Thank you for all your encouragement and continued prayers, Lori

Dear God, we pray that Katrina's platelets
will increase in number so she can continue
with her chemo. In Jesus' name, we pray.
Amen.

We are praying for you, sweet friend!

The kids began school today! Our Ian is now in HS and Eliott is a middle schooler. Phoenix had the 1st day as a Senior and Neena loves her 4th grade teacher :)
We love you!

ReplyDeleteMiss seeing your beautiful face! Praying for the magic number. Lots of love!
ReplyDeleteI work with Louis at Farney, and I've been following this blog since I learned about Katrina. I donate platelets about once a month at Gulf Coast Regional Blood Center and would love to help out. What do I need to do the next time I go in to donate? Please email me to let me know how I can help: Jessica.rice@cfisd.net
