In the last month or so we haven't had much new to update. Dad has been battling a few fevers and has had a quick stay for a few nights in the hospital and a few visits to the ER for fevers. We're working with his doctor to make sure his medication is helping and now we have a different plan so that Dad doesn't have to go to the ER each time he spikes a fever. Dad had an MRI this week and Dr. Wagner will be going over those results at the end of the week. There may not be anything new to report, but Dr. Renz in Chicago wanted to monitor Dad's liver to see if there was growth of tumor in the portal vein. We are continuing to pray for no new activity in the portal vein.
In Mom's journey, the biggest news is no news right now. She was initially going to be admitted in early August, but due to the donor and donor center's availability, her tentative admission will be September 11. We're hopeful that there are no more delays. The other thing that this delay is going to cause is the need for another bone marrow biopsy. Please pray that the results will show that Mom is still in remission!!
Thank you to everyone for all of your prayers and support. We will continue to keep you all updated when we have news to report.
