Encouraging results

Greetings in the lovely name of Jesus!
Realised I have not written updates for a while.... well, glad to share that David is doing so well that his last checkup on Monday showed his TW (total white blood cells count) at 4.3 which is within the normal range. His weekly doctor appointments have also reduced from 3 to 2 and now to 1 this week. Next appointment is Monday 18Jul.

Today is his Day 43 (i.e. 43 days after the stem cell transplant). Almost half way to his 100 days "confinement" (he is not supposed to go to crowded places during this period. His appetite has also improved. Strongly believe all these are possible because of all your prayers. Thank you so much!!!

Please continue to pray that with the reduced dosage of medicine, there will be no complications or possible onset of GVHD whatsoever. Please also remember to pray for other transplant patients, I think Patrina may be having her BMT transplant today. Pray for strength and hope. I know our Lord will not disappoint us as we place our trust in Him.

Abundant blessings and grace be to you in Jesus name,
Whee Ling
