Wordless Wednesday

Also, here's an update on Crystal...Good news!...
Crystal has had two good days in a row with substantial sleeping time in the evening hours. The doctors have removed her from forced oxygen and she now is on a portable tank at the lowest setting (hooray!). She tires easily and so the family is requesting no phone calls or visitors. It’s so hard when she feels good to not overdo things. They are hopeful that Crystal may be able to come home on Friday, it will depend on her scans after today’s chemo treatment. This dose will complete round 1 in her chemo treatment. They are looking at 6-12 months of treatment. The children were all able to see Crystal yesterday for two 10 minute slots. Her pain was lower over the last couple of days and there was no new tumor growth.
Please pray specifically that the chemo will do it’s stuff and that there will be minimal side affects/pain for Crystal (however, these are good signs in that something is happening). Pray that her body will stay strong to endure the treatment. Continue to pray for Steve and the children and those caring for the children. Things are going so smoothly with the kids and Steve’s mom knows that it is because we are all praying that they will.
