My AML Journey Continues:
It’s been a few days since I posted, so here is a quick update on the progress of my journey.

On Sunday, March 2, I completed five days of outpatient chemo. I thank God  that once again I’ve had no visible side effects from the treatment. I firmly believe that my continued level of mental and physical stability is due to the many prayer warriors who continue to believe with Audrey and me for ongoing strength and a positive outcome!

I am also in the midst of a 30 day round of taking a medication called Jakafi, which is used in several different applications. In my case, the purpose is to further reduce the size of my spleen back to normal size, in preparation for the transplant. I am praying that this pill will completely bring this spleen back to normal, because if it does not, it will require some radiation to finish the job. So, please help me pray that this drug will be highly effective in the next few days!

I am scheduled to have another consultation on March 12, and I expect to be getting updates from the doctor on the progress of finding a good donor, and also a projected date to go back in the hospital in preparation for the transplant. Tentatively, they are telling me to expect to go back in at the end of March or the beginning of April.

 Yes , I would love to receive that touch from the Master’s hand, that would constitute an instant miracle healing. And I do believe God is able to do that. But I also believe that God can bring me through this trial  with victory as well. I am holding fast to God’s declaration of keeping power that he makes in Isaiah 43:2…

“When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.”

Once again, if you are helping us pray…
Don’t Stop Now‼️😊
