An update on Pop's white blood cell count....Tuesday, Pop's white blood cell count was low; it was down to .8, which is too low. (Friday it was 2.6 and that is what they told us at Tuesday's appt.)A drug called neupogen was administered; the purpose was to stimulate white blood cell production in his bone marrow. Pop was to receive an injection daily until his count came up to an acceptable level. Wednesday, his count was up to 1.3, which, while an improvement, is still too low. (The oncologist wants his white blood cell count to be between 4 and 10.) Thursday it was up to 5.7...Yea! And today, Friday, it was up to a whopping 18.3!!!! Pop told me that incredible news himself! PRAISE GOD!

I told Pop I was so proud of his bone marrow! Yippee! A time of celebration is here! This is such great news!! He will start off his 2nd cycle of chemo next week with a high white cell count! Other than a total and complete healing, I am not sure we could've gotten better news this week!! God is SO very good!!!

2 Corinthians 12:9 states that "My gracious favor is all you need. My power works best in your weakness."

Isn't that the truth!! I don't think anything more needs to be said on that!
