Halfway done...

An update...what a surprise. Actually, mom has been doing so well that it's wonderful that we don't have a lot to report. She is halfway done with this drug as of yesterday! She has not been sick from the drugs at all which is wonderful. She actually has been living a fairly normal life, they even got to go camping over the 4th of July.

Our main prayer request would be that her white blood count would stay steady or even raise. A couple weeks ago it dropped a lot in one weeks time and was so low that the doctors weren't sure she should have a treatment. They went ahead and gave her the treatment and then during the next week her count actually went up. She doesn't feel a lot different when her count is down, but she does not have much immunity to fight off common illnesses.

We are so thankful for all your prayers!!
