Biopsy Day




These are the beautiful women who ran the half marathon on Thanksgiving morning. so cool!
Hello Prayer Warriors,
Thanks for the prayers. We just got back from the clinic. Erin's bone marrow biopsy went smoothly. She requested her favorite practitioner to do it and it went fine. She was her usual chatty self through the whole procedure. I could hear through the door that she was telling stories on other practitioners and other incidents that have happened to her at Emory. She just talks up a storm when they give her sedation. She actually doesn't get "sedated" at all. It is so funny. When they came out of the procedure room I asked if she gave them all my bank account info too. Yikes! They may have results as early as Fri and they said we could e-mail them to ask. Otherwise we have to wait until next Wednesday's appt. Good news is that her magnesium was up to the lowest end of normal so she gets to decrease her magnesium from 4/day to 3/day. Praise God for small favors! She also got the o.k. to drive today! That is huge for Erin. Now that she feels so much better, she has places to go, people to see. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers today. Please continue to pray for sterling results. God is all over this! Blessings, janet

"You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord, is the Rock eternal." Isaiah 26:3-4

WOW!

If you click on the pictures, they come up nice and large. You can read Denise's sign. Jess, one of Erin's nurses from 8E, looks like she is wearing angel wings - deservedly so. What a lovely trio of smiles in the second picture. Erin is very blessed to have such wonderful friends.
