It has been a challenging week. I really don't want to go into specifics other than there are a couple potentially significant challenges we are facing. I am trying to trust the Lord and not be anxious. I know the Lord will provide. So just pray that the Lord will provide just as He has throughout the entire journey. Even if it does not seem possible with our own resources, nothing is impossible with God. This is one of my favorite scriptures that I have posted in my house. Anxiety is something I often struggle with and this helps to guard my heart.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:5-7
Nathan and I are still sick, which is why I haven't posted yet this week.
My little brave boy Isaac turns four tomorrow. I am thankful for the richness he adds to our lives. I love his giggles and energy. He loves our nightly family dances to a Veggie Tales worship CD. He loves to jump. He loves glow sticks, reading books, slushees, and pigs in a blanket (pancakes with sausage) for breakfast. I love that he still likes to snuggle.
Update on Nathan:
Tests show that although his liver function improved slightly, they are still high. We are holding his infusions for now. They ran some additional tests to see if he may have a virus since he has gotten sick several times.
Yesterday at the ophthalmology appointment were all surprised to find out Nathan has fluid accumulating at the optic nerve as it enters his right eye. Right now in the doctors terms, "it brings more questions than answers". It potentially could be medicine related. The Bone Marrow doctors are going to have further discussions with the ophthalmologist, and they are doing a thorough review of records to see if anything may have potentially caused this. Right now his vision is fine, we don't know what the implications are at this point.
We just need to keep praying!
