Today was another great day filled with lots of visitors and answered prayers. Debbie felt great and her counts were good, so good that she didn't need a blood transfusion. However, there is a good chance that she will need blood and maybe platelets tomorrow. She was getting tired by dinner time and didn't have much of an appetite but that is to be expected as she finishes with her last bag of chemo. Yeah! Over the next few days her white blood cell count will continue to drop which will make her more susceptible to infection and fever. Because of this, she will only be allowed limited visitations (call Stan before you come), so she will have to rely more and more on the cards that you continue to send. They currently decorate one wall and the nurses have encouraged her to take over the room and hang the cards from every open spot. Thank you again for your prayers, they have certainly carried her this far and she will need them more than ever over the next few days and weeks.

My moma was telling me about a website that we can go on and send Debbie some messages of encouragement, but she didn't know it exactly. If you could let me know I'd love to send her a message. Know we're still praying without ceasing!!!
