Tuesday Night

Greetings to all!

Hope all is well with all of you. Marty has had a very, very sleepy and hurting day. She has spent most of the day with the heating pad on her shoulder and sleeping in the chair, on the bed, or on the couch. We are pretty sure that her White Blood Count is down to “0”. It was only 300 on Monday and was on the way down. Besides the type of day that Marty has had that is the other reason we believe that to be the case. We will have a CBC done tomorrow and that should tell us for sure. Praise the Lord!

We sure do not understand the shoulder hurting so much again. And as we try to figure it out we have noted that it is when the counts are down very low that it seems to hurt more. We are not sure we will ever find out the cause, but we sure wish the pain medicine would relieve it or at least do a better job of decreasing the pain some.

Don’t know of anything else to report at this time. But, we do want to continue to glorify God for all that He has done for us. We are so grateful for His presence, grace, and love that has been so visible to us in so many ways. Marty and I have talked before and wondered how people that don’t know God get through struggles like Marty has been going through the past 4 – 5 months. And with this experience it becomes even more of a question. We are just so grateful that we don’t have to experience it and also that we have such great friends that are so, so supportive. Thank you all very much.

Have a positive day, and watch for Jesus and God in your day.

Marty and Jack
John 3:16
