The One with the Test Results

Good Evening,
This is Brenda reporting.

We just found out that Bri has strep in her blood and pneumonia. She will be getting a lung biopsy tomorrow to determine if it is fungal. They will not be doing the scheduled bone marrow biopsy as her blood work stills shows leukemic cells and therefore is not needed. They said although she did show some response to the chemotherapy it is not as much as is needed to proceed with transplant. She will need another round of chemo next week. She feels very sick today.

She is getting more scared as am I. I am praying and crying out to God. I know He is present and will never leave or forsake us but, it still hurts. Occasionally fear tries to plague us and blocks out the light/life we know lives within us. We pray and hold on to God. We feel, sense and know the prayers of all our friends/family is sustaining, strengthening and comforting us. thank You so very very much. It is His love that truly sustains us and we are thankful to be recipients of that expression through His body of you, our dearest of friends/family.

Thank You to all who have visited, sent cards, notes and calls as it is encouraging to her. If you are in or going through Atlanta please come by for a minute if you can. You can call me to see if she is up for a visit. Bless you all, we will update again in a few days.
