For the first time ever.....a multi-posting...


September 20th:
Last night I almost tore off my skin it is so itchy as if mosquito’s have been feasting on me for days. Unbelievably itchy. I smothered myself in lotion but it provided no relief. I considered sand paper but figured I’d get an infection or something worse and I have enough to deal with. So today after work my Vancouver dad is taking me to the body shop as they have what’s called body butter and it worked when I first started treatment oh so long ago, I assume it still will. Please pray that it does because this feeling is horrible.

This section is from September 18th

Heh everyone how’s it going?  Just wanted to bring you up to date on my latest blood work.  I had it taken this morning and thanks to VCH,  I was able to check the results online at My E-Health, well the good news is that although my white and red blood cells are still below what they should be, they are headed in the right direction.  My liver enzymes are still all out of whack.  I was expecting to see an improvement with my Gamma GT levels but they have gone up all be it minimally up is up.(wrong way).  This is one that I thought for sure would’ve come down, but I am clearly wrong.   Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh I don’t want that getting out.  I’m rarely wrong so I don’t want people finding out. LOL

So; I have blood again in October and November, neurologist in October, MRI and results in November.  I’m going out of 2013 with a bang of appointments.  I don’t think I’ve ever had this much action before. 

I think that’s it for updates.  No more sleep walking (that I’m aware of)  I’ve been eating a bit more the last few days with little or no nausea which is great as I’ve weighted in at 105 lbs., so I’ll continue to be grateful for that and my body can figure the blood out.  If I can go through a day and not feel nauseas then I’m a happy camper.  And praise God. (Love you Lord & thanks)

Alex is coming down soon (Oct. 4th or 5th) for the month of October.  I’ve redone pretty much the entire apartment to make it my own.  It will be interesting to hear what she thinks. 

I would appreciate it if you would pray for a family member or someone you know who is hurting for one reason or another.

Thanks guys for your ongoing prayers.  If God answers any of your prayers in a miraculous way, please post or email because it is encouraging to hear what God does with people that suffer as we all suffer differently.
Bless you all.  Enjoy the song.  I have a feeling that a few of you will find this song very comforting.
