Love in Action

The urinary tract infection that Laurence has is a tough one. His doctors have him on several antibiotics to heal the infection and steroids to fight the graft vs host (GVHD). He is now on an all liquid diet to help the colon rest and repair.

He is twelve weeks into his transplant, so his doctor did a bone marrow biopsy to measure his progress. We should have results in a few days.

We did have a good report this week. Result of an MRI shows improvement over the last one done in June. Praise God!

In spite of pain and discomfort, Laurence continues to inspire everyone with his gracious kindness and love. He is truly an example of love in action.

Faith, prayers and love get us through each day. Thank you for thinking of us and sending prayers our way.

"Cast all your cares on the Lord, and he will sustain you." Psalm 55:22
