Brighter Day

I think I saw a smile this morning!!

We had two or three rough days, but we're so thankful. Jerry wasn't nauseous all day yesterday and so far today. We think it was some of his medication for his diabetes that was making him so sick. I think we finally have it under control. He is still so tired and weak sometimes.  I didn't know anyone could sleep so much. The doctor was worried at first, but told me that Jerry was still trying to recover from the strong dose of chemo.

I have to tell you. I'm very impressed with Duke Hospital. I had to call a couple of times. I didn't even have to press 25 numbers, give our mother's maiden name, our first pet's name, where we went to school at, or anything else. A nurse answered and put me right through to the doctor. It was amazing.

Tomorrow we go back to Duke Clinic for Jerry to have another bone marrow biopsy.

We have some specific prayer requests:

Safety traveling

Jerry's blood count to be good

For the count to be high enough that they can do the biopsy

Good report from the biopsy (we won't know about it right away)

That they will be able to continue Jerry's treatment

And today is my spiritual Birthday. 39 years ago I asked Jesus to come into my heart and Jerry rededicated his life. What a wonderful and special day that was.

Thanks again to everyone for the prayers, love, and support.

In His Hands.....
