Good Platelets

Hello Friends and Family,

Trudy's labs a week and a half back showed some elevation in her platelets, but they were still below the expected levels. Today, her labs were terrific and her platelets in particular were fully up to the expected levels...Praise the Lord!

Trudy did quite well over the holidays with all the hustle and bustle of church, family, traveling, and full-blast doings. So, she returned to the classroom today with a pretty good head and chest cold. No fevers or other worrisome symptoms, but prayerfully, she will only have a brief and relatively mild cold.

As a prayer note, we ask that you give extra prayer on Robert's brother's behalf. You can click on the link to the right, "Jack's Journey" for more details, but Jack is facing more procedures due to a tumor that has quickly appeared behind his ear. This will take place on Monday.

Thanks for the prayers. We continue to pray that Trudy will keep gaining in strength, that the "cold" will soon be over, that she will have good health, that her counts will be good, that she will tolerate well, the treatments, and that the Leukemia and all related issues will stay away.

Blessings,
Trudy and Robert
