One Week Later

One week has passed since my last entry regarding my on-going health issues. Since my last post, I've visited my doctor and received some very encouraging news. My white blood count is the lowest it's been so far. While that may not sound good, it indicates that the chemo is working at killing off the bad cells. On the other hand my red blood cells have climbed the best level since the time I was told to head to the hospital back in June. The doctor told me that as the bad cells die off, it is making room for the good ones. I could still face the possibility of a fever or catching a virus in the days and weeks ahead because of my low resistance, so I appreciate your continued prayers.

My next visit to the doctor will be next week to again check my blood levels. I am feeling great and so far have had no reaction whatsoever to the treatment of last week. I give all the credit to my Lords protection throughout this ordeal.
