I'm SO PROUD of my Sister, and the Faith and Strength she has shown, during these stressful and uncertain times!
Journal entry by Debbie Heiman — 11/23/2016
This Thanksgiving, I am so thankful for so many things. Even though we had a rough patch since last Sunday, and had to spend 5 days in the hospital, Scott was able to come home. For that, I am thankful!
Scott had labs drawn at Froedtert today. They were prepared to give him IV fluids, but he was well hydrated, and didn't need the fluids. He was very happy about that! This is another reason to be thankful.
His counts are still low, but not dangerously low. They are often low after chemo, and he is only 12 days out from the last day of his 5 day chemo.
All of his liver counts were elevated. They are assuming that it's due to the chemo and having been sick recently. They will check those numbers again on December 1st. We are so thankful for his wonderful Doctors and nurses.
We were able to pick the kids up from school and head to Scott's parents house for Thanksgiving. I am extremely thankful that he is able to be with his parents for Thanksgiving. Their house is his favorite place to be.
Every day that we get to spend with Scott is a huge blessing, and I'm so thankful that he is with us for another Thanksgiving! No one is ever guaranteed tomorrow. We just have a reason to live like every day could be our last.
We pray every day that God will bless us with many more years together. Only HE can count the number of our days.
Please join me this Thanksgiving by thanking God for the many blessings that he showers down on us.
I am thankful for Scott, our kids, both of our families, our friends, and all of the people who have been there for us and prayed for us. We've made it over 19 months down this difficult road. I'm thankful that God has kept us strong in the faith. He has provided for our needs every step of the way. He is such a good and gracious God.
We want to say thank you to each and every person who is reading this. Your love and support mean more than you could ever know. God hears each and every one of your prayers.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁
P.S. If you are travelling, I pray for safe travels for you. Enjoy this precious time with loved ones.
