Coming Home?

Hey all,

Thanks again for your dedication to us and praying for us. Hope you all had a great Friday night! I'm hoping that's our last date in the hospital on a Friday night. We are hoping that tomorrow they can discharge her. We are waiting on her white blood cell count to drop to a normal level (all expect its high due to steroids she was on, not infection but better safe than sorry). She was coughing a lot today and was shaking some tonight that she couldn't control so they did a chest xray around 6pm tonight to make sure there isn't any infection or pneunomonia!!!

With her body still weak and recovering we really need to keep praying that infection stays away from her totally and that she can keep eating more and more to get her weight back and all the nutrients she needs to fight off infection.

If we do get home this weekend to Grace's family's place, I'm going to keep the NO VISITORS clause up for now, k? We'll have plenty of time in the future to have people over and get back to somewhat normal but for now we need to keep my lady healthy and getting better without overloading her.

Thanks for all your care and love, I checked the mail today and there were another 20 cards!!!! I read them all to her today and she loved it. Thanks!

God is good...and we are getting through this storm one day at a time,
Lamar

  1. Grace and Lamar,
    We are continuing to keep you in our prayers. It is a really good plan to try to keep her in a germ free environment. Praying that she will be able to leave the hospital tomorrow.

    Psalm 117
    Praise the LORD, all you nations; extol him, all you peoples. For great is his love toward us,
    and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD.
