Happy Birthday to Dood(82) and MaKenna(3). Scott is still down. Just got platelets, will be getting 2 units of blood soon. He is very tired. They may to a scan tomorrow to make sure they have not missed anything that may be causing his ongoing fever. So far all the tests have come back negative, so they just try rule everything out. They did say his hands could be causing the fever. He can bend his fingers a little more but they are still swollen and painful. He is mostly sleeping, still only eating ensure, and very quiet ( especially for Scott!). His white blood count is .1 Woot Woot. it has been <.1 for the last few days, we are hoping this is the beginning of his climb up and out. His liver enzymes are better also, still elevated but only by 20 not 200. Prayers appreciated.

  6. Prayers from the Froling family in Hartland to you of both. Keep standing firm in your faith that GOD is bigger than this. "Do not be anxious or worry about anything, instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need and give thanksgiving to HIM for all he has done." Phiilippians 4:6. May today bring you the sunshine you need to keep your bright outlook on this trial of today. Blessings for healing. Tonia and Mark Froling
