Mom went back today for chemo (which went smoothly) and had her blood platelet and hemoglobin checked. Again, her levels were above the infusion numbers (platelets 23 and red blood 10, which was up from the other day!). Praise the Lord!
She will go back again tomorrow for another check. With this being a holiday week, the Infusion Center is very busy, so most likely they will infuse her with platelets as her level nears the 20 mark (she gets infusions when it falls below 20).
But this is all great news because she has gone one whole week without an infusion...which means her body is making/keeping its own blood cells/platelets. Which must mean the cancer is decreasing in the bone marrow. But I am not a doctor! So I will defer to the medical team for a specific answer, if they know one!
For now, we rejoice in this great week and thank our God for His grace and mercy!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, all of you! I know I speak for my parents when I say, that we are very thankful for all of you.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Halleleujah!!!!!!

Do you believe that I am able to do this? (Matthew 9:28)
ReplyDeleteGod deals with impossibilities. It is never too late for Him to do so, as long as that which is impossible is brought to Him in complete faith by the person whose life and circumstances would be impacted if God is to be glorified. If we have experienced rebellion, unbelief, sin, and ruin in our life, it is never too late for God to deal triumphantly with these tragic things, if they are brought to Him in complete surrender and trust.
It has often been said, and truthfully so, that Christianity is the only religion that can deal with a person's past. God "will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten" (Joel 2:25), and He is trustworthy to do it unreservedly. He does so not because of what we are but because of who He is. God forgives and heals and restores, for He is "the God of all grace" (1 Peter 5:10). May we praise Him and trust Him. from Sunday School Times
Nothing is too hard for Jesus
No man can work like Him.
We have a God who delights in impossibilities and who asks, "Is anything too hard for me?" (Jer. 32:27). Andrew Murray
