Thursday Update
Hi all, Well we have finally gotten an appointment to see the oncologist. The appointment is for next Tuesday, August 23rd at 10:50 AM PDT.
We have been feeling the effects of your prayers. Last night was the first night in almost a week that we were not fighting a fever. It only went up just before she went to sleep... then it was about 103.2, but tolerable enough for her to still sleep. Today she rested and there were no fever spikes.
So please continue to pray that the fevers will be gone, or minimal. She still does not have much appetite, and sleeps most of the time. Pray for energy and strength for each day (isn't that what we all need anyway?) I remember the song "Great is Thy Faithfulness" - "Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, Blessings all mine with ten thousand beside."
Marilou has been greatly encouraged by your messages and prayers. Last night she read through all the journal entries and many Facebook messages and emails. It really made her feel very loved and cared for. Thank you all so very much for that.
Do for right now, we will get the report and recommendations from the oncologist, and then prayerfully decide our next steps.
Again, we cannot say "Thank you" enough. You are all a great blessing to us. To know that friends around the world are praying... the Father takes notice.
