Grace Upon Grace

Grace upon Grace and Kindness on Kindness

We are still at Children's, making it our home away from home but much grace and kindness we have experienced….

*EEG test came back clear. The jerking has stopped and Micah is sleeping much better!! Thank the Lord.
Nana & G took the weekend shift so Luke & I got to go to Delaware this past weekend, Braet had spent the week there with Maw & Paw so we were able to come and visit, relax and catch up on some much needed sleep!
*Micah spent his 2nd B-day here (we were able to celebrate the weekend before with the fam at home) and the nurses ordered him cake & ice cream. Miss Katie and a few others brought him lots of fun gifts and balloons, we have been so overwhelmed by everyone's kindness and generosity!
*His chest x-ray was clear (he has been coughing a little so they wanted to make sure his lungs were clear)
*And Pathology…. Well we couldn't have asked for a better report!! The pathologist said they saw Necrosis (dead cancer cells) and white blood cells (they come in to do the clean up work) but as far as they could tell there was no tumor in the tissue. They can't guarantee 100% that there are no tumor cells hiding out but this is the best possible report and we are most grateful to the Lord!!

Micah is also feeling much better this week and he is back to his happy self! We are hanging out at Children's due to 2 positive blood cultures (meaning bacteria is growing in his blood samples) and low grade fevers. We are hoping to get a negative culture back, otherwise the docs will consider putting a new broviac line in before the next round of chemo starts (which is supposed to happen either Friday 5 th or Monday 8th). Luke & I are anxious to get home but are so thankful for how well Micah is doing and we're trying to be patient =). We have been meeting more wonderful people and our boys are being spoiled by Miss Katie (one of the ladies that works here)! Micah has even taken walks with her- unbelievable!! I think that is about all for the updates.

Thanks for all your continued prayers, calls, meals, emails, etc (you've done it all!). We have definitely felt your prayers, love and concern for us! Thank You!
Love, The Davis'
Luke & Kriscinda, Braet, Micah and Cianne
