That boy I was praying for?

D___ and A___ were at the clinic Tuesday to have blood counts done, once a month at the clinic they have a birthday party for anyone who has a birthday that month, Tuesday was September's birthday party. A___ said D___ walked in leaned up against the doorway, and said "Hi, Everybody, what you doin?" She said " He's way to comfortable at the clinic." Thought I would share something funny and cute for a change, seems like everything I have to tell you is bad. Wish you could get to know him personally, he is a very bright and funny child. He keeps us laughing!! B___, Audra and Daniel spent the day at the clinic. He had the MIBG done yesterday, and was supposed to have a cat scan today, then see a Dr. with the tests results. They were unable to do the cat scan, because his port hasn't been flushing good, and last week they had someone's port explode, while they were doing a Cat Scan. They tried putting an IV in to us e with Daniels cat scan and the vein collaspsed. So Bobby and A___ told them to not do it today. And as A___ says " Surprise, Surprise there was no Dr. at the clinic today, to see." His platelets were low, so he had a platelet transfusion, and that took a long time because the port wasn't working good. Someone finally told them (probably a P.A.), that the MIBG shows that the spots of cancer has not changed from the last MIBG that they had done in New York City. B___ says " we can look at this as good news, because they haven't gotten bigger." But of course we wanted them to tell us that they had gotten smaller. So now he goes back to the clinic Monday for blood counts, and Wednesday for a cat scan. B___ is going to talk to the Dr. about whether the cat scan will show them anymore and is worth having it done. He will see the Dr. sometime next week, and see what they want to do no w, a different chemo, or who knows what. Pray for A___ who is having a hard time, pray that his port will start working and they won't have to replace it. Pray that God will keep helping us get thru all of this.

God ain't givin' us no freebies this time. Of course I haven't won any obvious contests between life and death. Righteousness vs. foulness, yes, but life vs. death: no.
