A Little Setback...


Erik and I went to the doctor yesterday in Amarillo for his check-up. We were disappointed to find out that his level was 77,000. :( Dr. Lim said that really doesn't count as too much of a drop, but what it does tell us is that the steroid treatment is not working. We go back next week to start infusions of Rituxan and to start weaning him off the Prednisone.

It's not all bad news because Dr. Lim says he is still not ruling out the possibility that this is an acute case. With that in mind, I ask that as you read this, you take just a second to lift Erik up in prayer and ask that this new treatment work for him--and that it is an acute case.

Thanks to all of you who continue to follow this "journey" with us. Please know that it means so much to know that we have friends and family who are willing to go to God for Erik and for the healing of his body!

I hope all of you have an amazing Thanksgiving weekend!!! In the words of a sweet friend: "GOBBLE 'TIL YOU WOBBLE!!" --Leah Helm :)
