Some very promising news today.

First for the very best news….ANC is over 5000 and WBC 7.07. I am in awe.

His blood and platelets are not so good but that is expected. Sorry to report his liver number is 15 and that is not good at all. BUT…………..It was told to us it is not his liver!!!!!!!!!! Apparently they believe it is the gallbladder and it is coming out sometime next week. They are giving him medicine to try to dissolve the stones but they don’t think it will work. I am just so happy it is not the liver. Elliott is feeling somewhat better with his increasing counts. He called me this morning with a grocery list. I will be heading there Friday after working a half day and spend the weekend. I doubt there will be a Kohl house move before then. Our hope is to get us in that house before Christmas Eve and it looks possible now. I have been sick and busy and want to apologize to anyone who has sent money or gifts and have not received a Thank You. I use to be so good about that but lately I am happy to remember what day it is. Please know that we appreciate EVERYTHING AND EVERY THOUGHT AND PRAYER. I am feeling somewhat better myself. I have slept 24 hours in the last two days. That in itself is a record for me I think. Please continue prayers for Elliott that the operation is quick and safe and that is the answer to his troubles.

I'm glad to hear that his gallbladder is the culprit and not something more serious. While having to undergo suregery now is not exactly great, it it can help get rid of the infection to get him moving in the right direction I pray it gets done with no side effects and he is able to turn a corner.
