Low Counts = Free Weekend
We’re HOME for the weekend!!!! Jake’s numbers didn’t make the cut so they sent us home last night. Of course the car was packed and we were ready for admission but God had other plans. He wants us home this weekend! We head back in Monday afternoon and by then his counts will surely be ready. This chemotherapy is a four-day infusion so it will be a long week hooked up for him, but for now we’ll happily focus on these few days home. We have good things to look forward to… Kate and Emma are in their school’s talent show tonight (Emma is singing with a friend and Kate is playing America on piano). Jake and I plan to sneak in the back a little late so we can watch and then head out after they perform. Cameron and Ryan both have birthday parties to attend. Happy Birthday Blessings to good friends, Elliott and Alex. And, we will finish up Cameron’s science fair. God is good! Jakey is happy to be home as he slept till after 10am this morning. Nothing like being in your own bed. Now he’s cuddled up in the big chair with his dog… he and Gunner are in for a good day. Wishing you all a very good day too, and a blessed weekend!

Hi Im friends with Erin Fujimoto. My wife is undergoing a stemcell transplant for ph+ ALL. We are in Shands Cancer Hospital as we speak. We will send prayers up for little Jake. I cannot imgaine a child going through what we have been through. If life has overwhelmed you and you haven’t had the time- look into the American Cancer Society’s programs….they have one to send him to DIsney once he is better. The luekemia and Lymphoma society even give a small amount to help with expenses.
Also this guide is free and helps in all cases – http://www.bmtinfonet.org/node/9001
Good luck and God bless!
