Hello and Happy Wedding Day to Andrew and Kristin,
Erin had a really rough day yesterday. She was miserable all day until they started some steroids. They also gave her a new drug called Emend for the nausea and one or the other or the combination of the two worked and she felt well enough to eat some cheerios for dinner. Then she spiked a fever of 101 around 8:30. We were scared but after some tears and fears, the nurse came in and said they decided it was just the 2 chemos reacting together and they didn't consider it an infection yet. Of course they did blood cultures but her fever went away so it was probably nothing big. What a rollercoaster of emotions we ride. We are halfway through this round though and that is a praise. We have a list on the white board and celebrate crossing off each day!
On another subject, Aunt Debbie has committed to ride her bicycle 100 miles for the Leukemia/Lymphoma society in October. To do that she has to raise $2000. If you would like to check it out, she has a web site where you can get the details.

Erin is so blessed to be her honorary teammate and we are proud of her for undertaking such a big task! It is quite a testiment to her love of the Lord and Erin to tackle this ride. I hope you all can help us support this fundraiser which also helps others now and in the future who are struggling with this disease.
May your day be blessed. Thanks for the prayers! love, janet

Hi Erin and Blonstein family! We haven't blogged in quite awhile, but y'all are never far from our thoughts and are always in our prayers! Keep crossing those days off the white board...
We can't wait until we see Erin and her sassy, smiley face back at church!

Praying for you everyday, sweetheart!
You are the Lord's princess and He is doing everything to help your pain and heal your cute little body. He loves you SOOOO much!
I dont know if Laura had told you about "The Shack" but you sooo need to read it. It's now my new favorite book and has really changed my image of God. I am pretty sure she owns it..so maybe you can borrow it to kill sometime.
Keep up the tough fighting. You are doing so amazing. Dont think anything otherwise.
love you!

It was really great seeing you all last weekend, especially seeing Erin's beautiful smile! Thanks for taking care of us Erin, good job at being a nurse! :)
Thanks Aunt Janet for letting everyone know about my participation on the "Team In Training", to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphona Society. Even though my website doesn't show it yet, we've raised $1170! To God be the Glory! Erin, you may never know the full impact you have had on people, how your faith and loving/kind personality has touched so many people. My life and faith has changed for the better because of you! Hang in there, almost done with round four! We continue to pray daily for you and I know with our my hearth that God will comfort you.
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with whch we ourselves are comforted by God." 2 Corinthians 3:3&4
Love you all! Aunt Debbie
