Great news! Blood tests were surprisingly good. White blood cell count yesterday 3.4, today at 10.8.
Platelet count yesterday 81, today 126! The nurse said that was amazing. We are now waiting for the surgeon to implant the port in your mother's chest. Love, Dad
Mom called later this afternoon after coming out of surgery. I could almost see her beaming.
She said, "The nurse kept looking back and forth from yesterday's charts to today. He said, 'I can't believe this. Your blood was just drawn yesterday. This doesn't happen.' I said, 'That's the power of prayer.'"
When she got home, Mom showed me the results: Yesterday's paper, 3.4 and 81.
Today's sheet, 10.8 and 126.
If the count didn't go up, Mom probably wouldn't have been able to have the port inserted.
So this is what it feels like to experience and receive a miracle. Amazing! Surreal. Super thankful. Laughter!
Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of glory, Lord of love . . .
Thanks so much for standing with us in prayer.
Keep 'em coming! Every cancer & pre-cancer cell destroyed, in the name of Jesus.
