Prayers working...latest news on Caryn
 
Caryn's #'s this week came down again! Considering that she was given a few weeks to live 5 weeks ago we're doing very well.
Her tumor markers have come down to 539 (from a start in the 1100's) and 199 (from 600's) and her bilirubin has come down to the mid 5's from 12! Her red count was very low as a result of the beating her bone marrow has taken so she went in today for a 6 hour blood transfusion.
She hasn't eaten anything in weeks but had some chicken broth over the weekend which helped lessen her queaziness. This allowed her to move away from the anti-nausea drugs which cause her to sleep all the time. She then moved to a tiny bit of rice the past couple of days with no negative reaction and actually tried a sliver of boiled chicked this evening WITH NO PROBLEM so far. She's still VERY weak and tired but definitely doing better than she was. GOOD STUFFFS!
I followed our Wednesday commitment and prayed tonight for Caryn and all of you this evening and will continue to do so.
If this miracle can continue for her then there's no reason to believe that it can't for anyone else as well.
God Bless All of You!
Eric

And God bless you and your family Eric. I am so happy to hear Caryn is making baby steps. We can keep up the prayers, you two just keep up what you are doing.

YEAH, I'm so happy to read about the continued good new's with Caryn. As always she and your family remain in my prayers, as well as all others who need them.

Eric, myself and many others are praying for you and Caryn.

I entered a prayer request for her at Silent Unity, which is a resource for affirmative prayer support-24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. I have called them on a number of different occasions and if you wish to call them, you will get a very calm reassuring person on the phone who will pray with you.

The number is: 1-800-NOW-PRAY (1-800-669-7729). Their thoughts and prayers will be with you for the next 30 days.
