Thank God his agony is over for now

Praise the Lord! David is not in agony now. He said it was like hell, felt like dying. Thank God for Dr William who explained it could be withdrawal syndrome when he did not take the morphine after being dependent on it for a while. When he resumed the morphine, he was able to rest and felt better. Please pray that the next time when he is off it (effect could last for 3 days), his body could handle it and that the Lord will spare him the suffering and agony again.

Next step is to do a blood test on Monday and if ok, will resume the chemo Velcade. Please continue to pray against side effects and that the Lord will continue to bring forth renewal of spirit, body, soul and mind, in Jesus name. Amen!

David's stem cell transplant experience was captured on Channel News Asia program called "Stems of Life" today at 8:30pm. There will be a repeat telecast later at 11:30pm and again tomorrow at 10:30am. Joshua was excited to see himself on national TV. David's testimony about God's goodness may have been under-emphasized (certain comments were censored), we hope people who watched could somehow get the message that it was "God who helped him" for all glory be to our Lord Jesus, for even the breakthrough in modern medicine is a miracle from the Lord. May His name be highly lifted up!

"As for me and my house, we wil serve the Lord!"- Joshua 24:15.
