Thanksgiving Day

Wow - we have so much to be thankful for today. Not only are we praising God that he has healed Debbie of the cancer cells in her body, but today her counts finally began to rise!! We have been expecting her counts to rise all week; however instead she had to have platelet transfusions almost every day, has run fever almost daily, and her white counts have stayed at the bottom. But today, Thanksgiving morning, she received word that her platelets are on the rise, her red and white cells are also rising, and they are doing this on their own! YEAH! She is really on the road to recovery and as soon as her numbers get a little higher she will get to go home!

We spent the day in Philadelphia with Jared's grandparents, brothers, and cousins. We had a good day and everyone enjoyed some time with Landrum! We came home via the hospital to bring Thanksgiving dinner up to Stan and Debbie.

We have had a great day today and tomorrow we will do it all over again with my family! Gotta love the holidays :)
