Answered Prayers and Olive Garden


We are praising God for answered prayers today! Jethenro had an appointment with the Infectious Disease doctor today and we finally got the pathology report from the nodule in his lung and.... there is absolutely no fungus/mold growing!! We are so very grateful and thankful for your prayers in this matter!! 

On another note... Jethenro has had a pretty good week. He got a chemo drug on Friday but the medication he received doesnt have a lot of side effects other than bone pain and it doesnt cause his blood counts to drop significantly which means he still has some defenses. This evening the whole family was home so we took the opportunity to have a family evening and head to Olive Garden. This is the first time we have been out together as a family in over 3 months! It was soo much fun just being able to sit there, eating, laughing and having a wonderful time.

Monday he starts another intense round of chemo. He goes to the hospital for one of the meds and will be there until he is cleared to go home. Pray that he will clear quickly so he doesnt have to spend the night there. Then Tuesday-Thursday he has to go to the clinical everyday. He gets Friday, Sat, Sunday off and then is back to the clinical Mon-Thurs. 2 tough weeks ahead of us but we know that He is always there :)
