OUR CHRISTMAS MIRACLE

The past couple of weeks have brought so many more miracles. Jim had CT scans which showed all his lymph nodes reduced in size and the spots on his lungs reduced quite significantly. He has gained another five pounds and his galactomannan serum test which is the test to measure fungus has gone from 6.28 to 1.18. .5o and under is considered normal, so we are close! We spoke with Bone Marrow Transplant and we have another appointment on Jan 5th with all the doctors up there.

Yesterday we went for Jim's routine Dr. visit and blood tests and "WOW!" is all I can say. His total white count is 18,000; his crit is 28, and (after no platelets for over four weeks) his platelet count has risen to 16!

This afternoon Jim and I attended a session at the temple, something we have missed doing for months. It was a really small session and we (rather conspicuously mask and all) sat in the back. As many of you know, medical miracles are not the only variety we are experiencing these days. The Lord truly has blessed us beyond comprehension and we are ever so grateful.
