Hello, Erin had a clinic appt today and she got good numbers, Praise God! Her white count is 4.2 and her ANC is 1200! WooHoo. So she can go out and about for a couple of days before round 4 starts. They have scheduled a bone marrow biopsy for Fri. This would give them the info they need by Mon to admit her. If the schedule opens up on Thurs, they may squeeze her in then and she would have the info needed to be admitted on Fri. or Sat. We really hope this happens so we can stay on schedule. Either way, God is in control and we know His timing is perfect! This also gives her a couple of days to get some of her antibiotics etc. out of her system. When her counts are low, she has to take 4 different anti-whatevers to keep her from getting an infection. Ooooh she hates taking pills, so it is a real gift to get a couple of days off from that chore. :-) So all in all, a great day. Yes, she went straight to the mall. It does a girl good! Please remember our blood drive on Sunday at Lawrenceville 1st United Methodist church from 8-12:30 and the bone marrow donor drive. It only involves a cheek swab! Join us and be a life saver!
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:8-10
love to all, janet

Praise God! So great to hear about the counts!
And yes,going shopping is definitely great therapy especially after spending so much time home bound -- hoping things can get started by the end of the week!
Praying for continued strength, faith, and blood counts! Praying that Round 4 goes well and that things stay on schedule --- so far it looks like everything is and that is just AWESOME! Hoping that all goes well so that Erin can attend Campmeeting in July!
In Our Prayers Always,
