And all shall be well


Hey there!
Thanks for taking time to read this blog.
I am looking forward to incorporating more photos, recipes, short-stories, essays, and interviews S-O-O-N!

In the meantime, I'll try to post health updates, too.
I really appreciate you taking time to comment on posts, call, email, and visit! Seriously - THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I had my second IVIG treatment today.
It was really quite an annoying adventure centering on a ridiculous hospital error.
In the end, I'm safe and sound - so that's the main thing.
Hopefully this will be all over soon.

My platelet count today was 59,000, which is good. Apparently Saturday's round #1 of IVIG did help. Hopefully round #2 will boost the count even higher. Normal is 150,000 to 400,000 and it sure would be nice to get into the normal range - even if it only lasts for awhile. Blood tests on Wednesday and Friday at 6:30am. I had hopes that maybe it could get up to 250,000 or so. I really really really really hope that could be the case.

All is well in vocational world.
It was a big weekend, and I'm very thankful for the Holy Spirit's movement amidst such a variety of activities.

I'm going to try and take a quick power nap before tonight's meeting at church. The "Fit by Faith" team is meeting. They are a health and wellness group that started about 4 months ago. It is very inspiring to witness their commitment to incorporating a holistic, wholeness-based model of health into people's lives.

Have a great evening. Thanks again for journeying with me.
