With white blood cells still low, especially my ANC - Absolute Neutrophil count of 1.1. , my dose was reduced by another 15 % from the initial dosage. Thus I am getting 70% dose. I have the 5-FU infusion until about 5 pm tonight. Again side effects were different this time.
It has been a delight to have Mark, Cinda, Annika and Toby with us. They have explored museums, sorted through items that were left here, and enjoyed several ethnic Chicago foods. They will be heading down to Missouri and Arkansas for the next few weeks returning to Chicago area mid-July. They are ticketed to return July 24, however, word came a few days ago that the Mongolian government might not be reviewing visas until July which might delay their return.
Timing again, is not always ours to set.
Thank you everyone for your intercessory pray on out behalf. How encouraging it is to learn of people that are praying in the middle of the night from Singapore to Niger to Mongolia to the midwest. Your friendship and concern is a real treasure.
Hi Linda,
ReplyDeleteI'm the wife of Mary Jane's nephew Steve McCreery. I see by an earlier post of yours why you like knitting needles :) Lovely shawl and am sure it is meaningful items like that which make your days count. Your postings are full of encouragement as well and I see that God is everywhere, being faithful to His children just as He has promised. I'm enjoying your pictures also, I'll have to learn how to do that next. We will continue to pray for your return to health and trust God for His precious grace. Blessings in Christ, Dawn
