1 Round of Chemo Over


Hello All,
Friday was the last day for Micah's first round of chemotherapy and so far so good! Micah did have some vomiting and diarrhea, but overall he seemed pretty comfortable. He has had a full week of watching helicopters, walking on his own through the hallways, taking wagon rides through the hospital, and spending time with friends and family. If all goes well we will be able to bring him home sometime this week, as early as Monday! Kriscinda and I are getting pretty excited about that - it's almost been 3 weeks since we first brought Micah into the hospital. Looking back I can see God's hand at work in our lives and his kindness to us as shown through all of our family and friends and all of the care, counsel, wisdom, and prayers that that offered up for us. We can not thank you all enough for your help and for coming along side of us during this difficult time. God is glorified in the ways you have served us.

Please continue to pray for:
*Micah's complete healing.
*That Micah's sodium will stabilize and he will be eating enough on his own (without the tube feeds) to have the NG tube removed from his nose
*That the symptoms of Micah's chemotherapy would continue to be minimal. The most recent chemo he had was called methotrexate which is known to cause severe mouth sores, and sores all along the digestive tract. Please pray for mercy for Micah's little body, that he would not be in any pain.
*Please continue to pray for Kriscinda and I and our family, that our trust would be found in the Lord, and that we would walk through this trial in a way that would bring glory to him -

Thanks Again!
Luke & Kriscinda, Braeton , Micah and Baby
