Sorry for not updating anyone on my mother-in-laws progress this summer! I have been mia from my blog and so many of you have been so kind to ask how she's doing so I for sure need to "proclaim what the Lord has done!!"
Today is day 95. (remember day zero was the scary day back in June. I just can't believe its already almost day 100!) She had a rough summer- recuperating, gaining energy, resting in the quiet and isolation of her home. To the glory of God she NEVER got sick! This is unreal people. God is so good. He protected her even in ways we don't know. But somehow, besides nausea and normal weakness, tiredness and sickness, she never got a fever or had to go back into the hospital after the procedure!! She was smart and careful and she and Donny and Grace made sure to take such good care of her. Her doctors say she is a textbook case - her results are off the charts. All her blood counts and levels and everything are back to normal!! Now, they are trying to figure out the steroid dosages and other things, which she thinks is making her feel weak :( not fun when she had more energy earlier in the summer. When she feels like she has the energy, she is able to walk up and down her street with a walker!!!!! Her hair is growing back :) They got a new dog, Sadie. They won't test for the MS cells for a while longer but now that is the biggest prayer request ----> that all the MS cells are gone!!!! and that she will fully recuperate soon. and PLEASE PRAY for her soul. for her spirit to be joyful, even in the solitude and waiting and wondering. Pray that she won't be anxious or worried and that she would trust the Lord. He has been so faithful this summer - as he promised he would be - and we are just trusting him to let her MS be gone. He is the healer and He has created her in His image.
Thank you so much for your prayers and support!!! She feels them and covets them!!
