Sorry to hear about your cousin Ron. Wishing her all the best for a full recovery

Thanks!

I am still waiting to hear a report.

I have a cousin that had a heart attack in the middle of the night on Saturday. She survived but was placed into a coma. They will wake her up today to see how she fared with lack of oxygen.

Scary, she is in her early 50s.

Prayers for a speedy recovery

I recently started another new medication. We'll know more in a few months. Been busy doing summer things with the kids. Yes, school started, but when they get out of school, they're still doing summer things. Making it last as long as possible.

Hopefully it's helpful

I really haven't wanted to post this, but denial can only take you so far.......

Some of my byc family remembers I was diagnosed with leukemia in June 13. I did all the chemo and had a clean bone marrow in Feb 14, indicating remission. Well, that didn't last. My labs started dropping and I had another bone marrow biopsy, it confirmed I'm relapsed. I go back to OHSU in Portland on Tuesday for induction chemo again. This means a 4-6 week stay, 250 miles from home

. It's going to be quite a challenge for my family. My honey's having a hard time not being able to be with me, but he's got to hold down the fort at home. The boys aren't happy, of course, but at least we've had some warning this time. After Induction and some more chemo, they'll be looking for a bone marrow donor since I don't have appropriate siblings. This whole process is going to take a long, long time.

I know God's got my back with this, and it's His plan no matter what happens. It's just hard being so far from my family. And then even when I can come home, I'll be immune compromised and have to live like a germaphobe again--most of you know I'm pretty much the opposite of that!

So, I'd again encourage anyone who is able to donate blood. Not specifically for me, but for everyone like me out there who relies on a transfusion to keep going.

All my friends who are praying folk--your prayers are always accepted! For those who aren't praying people, feel free to start any time

I am praying for you.
Exodus 23:25
And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.

I'm sorry I didn't realize that. Though I stand by that scripture for support of anyone in need. God is with us always.
