Thank you for praying for us! Coltrane has actually had a really good, but long week. Good in a sense that after the first day, we found a comfortable level of pain management. He has been resting a lot, and been having low fevers off and on, as to be expected. Have you heard of Roid Rage? Well, the nurses say that this is Roid Rage times two!
Today is the last day of his IL2/MAB treatment combo. This is great news! He will probably have some side effects and pain even after his treatment is done. That's just how it works. The doctors say it stops when the treatment is done, but that simply is not the case. Last time we did the combo it took Coltrane three weeks to completely recover and act like his normal self.
Please pray for:
Us to go home tomorrow
His blood cultures won't grow anything
His recovery to be immediate
His appetite to come back and be able to tolerate his nightly feeds
For our family to adjust to our old normal at home
For me (Justin) to be prepared to go back to college (majoring in Family and Human Services (Counseling), and double minoring in Photography and Theology), while balancing work, school, Coltrane's treatment, and School.
Our marriage to continue to grow in a positive way and stay strong in the Lord.
For us to go home tomorrow!
THANK YOU! We love you.
Love,
Justin
