Good News for Gage

Gage's biopsy came back with NO LEUKEMIA. They still want to make sure his platelet count comes back up and they will be doing a PET Scan, so there is still the "unknown". Please continue to pray for them as they wait.

We will be going up to Seattle next Tuesday afternoon to consult with the doctors there. Friend Debbie has agreed to watch Sarah for the day and it should be a one day trip. We are looking forward to another look at her scans and gaining some "comfort" with where we are at. At least that is our hope. At the same time, we are a bit fearful of them being more concerned than our doctors here. It is an emotional roller coaster ride.

Sunday morning, we jumped out of bed after hearing Rebekah start to scream. I'm not exactly sure what she did, but she had a cut on the top of her head an one on her forehead. She was very upset, so I was trying to calm her down and stop the bleeding and not get her more frightened. It is all still very sensitive. All a part of having kids!

She continues to love riding the bus. Sarah climbs on, too, and tries to fasten herself in one of the seatbelts. Rebekah will describe it as a "yellow school bus". I figure we're doing pretty good with that. And she knows she needs her backpack and shoes and a hat in order to go to school. What a big girl she is!
