New Changes + September Volunteer Opportunities

Dear Friends and Family,

The past few days have been very faced paced for Michael.  His blood production continues to improve: his white cell count is 6.3, and he has not had a blood transfusion in a week.  Michael has moved to a new room on the 4th floor, which is an ICU step down room which provides ventilator care.  He is now in room 4120.

We thank God and and we thank you for your prayers for the improvement in his bone marrow's ability to make blood products.  We also thank his doctors for their thorough evaluation of his drugs and discovery that one of them can rarely suppress bone marrow function.

He is opening his eyes more and making some more intentional movements with his arms.  He is still not awake though, so we pray that he will soon be aware of all the loving volunteers, family, and friends around him.

Also, the September Care Calendar is up and there are plenty of times available to come and sit with Michael.  If you are available to help, please consider signing up:
