Home Again & A Name for Baby

Hello All,

Micah came home from the hospital late last Wed night after having low grade fevers on Mon (April 10) and is still doing wonderful. We were so thankful to be home for Easter...we were able to see our family (and many of them were able to see Micah for the first time) it was a such a fun time- we were also able to go to a Friday night service, Good Friday, and that was a wonderful time to reflect on Christ's sacrifice for us. How thankful we are to know that we are forgiven and we and Micah will never be forsaken because of Christ's death for us. He willing gave his Son and well watching Micah go through the suffering he has, it is something that we would never willing do and oh how that makes us more grateful to God for sending his only to die for our many sins!!

We have just received the results back from Micah's MRI and the blood remainder is half of what it was just a a month ago and the spine looks great! The docs are very pleased and we are so thankful to the Lord for such wonderful progress. The docs are still recommending another surgery (to clean up the blood and make sure nothing is in the blood before we go onto the last 3 doses of higher chemo) and Luke and I will talk with Dr Yaun ( the one who performed Micah's 1st surgery) this Thursday at 10:30 because they would like to perform the surgery next week.

We would covet your continued prayers for our family as we walk this journey. Thanks for your faithful prayers and support...
Love to All,
Luke & Kriscinda, Braet, Micah and Cianne

* YES, we have a name!!! Baby Cianne should be arriving in about 6 weeks and if your wondering about her name it is my mom Cindy and Luke's mom's middle name Anne put together (and yes it is a real name =) ) and the name means "God is gracious" which we felt was extremly fitting! Not only has God been so gracious to us each and every day but we have also experienced a tremendous amount of grace and care from the Lord through these two wonderful women! Thanks Moms!
