An Update on Surgery

Linda's update as of 7/29.  It has turned into a 22 day stay in the hospital, rather than the expected two day stay.  Complications with the results of the platelets not being maintained in my system.  Should be at least 320,000 and mine have been as low as 800.  I'm on lots of very strong meds including a low dose chemo "This type used for blood disorders. Not cancer." and a very high dose of strong steroids to try to get this taken care of.  We have hit very low points emotionally and have been extremely elated at other times with every bit of hope or good news.  I'm fighting this battle and will continue to.  I can see God's hands in this whole thing, and can tell you that He is still indeed good all the time.  He is still performing miracles right here in this very hospital.  When it comes to knowing Him, there are no options indeed.  It's a must.  I thank all for the continued prayers and loving thoughts.  "Don't quit now please."  Phone calls also.  Thank you.  I find that I become quite confused and tired and just have to sleep or nap here and there when I can.  I do love you all though and hope to be back in full swing one day.
