Biopsy Complete

Ethan and I traveled to Nashville today for his long awaited bone marrow biopsy.  He did great! Was so patient and well behaved for a 2 year old that had to wait several hours and ride in the car for 6 hours.

Resting (for about 2 seconds)

Waking up after a GOOD nap:)



So now we...



It's hard to believe that a small sample of blood and marrow can determine so much.  The results of Ethan's test today will provide direction for our family in the upcoming year. As we wait, we know that there are three possibilities.  His cells could look perfectly normal.  His cells could look worse.  His cells could look the same.  Whatever the results, we hope the Lord has chosen to heal him of MDS and Monosomy 7.  And whatever the results, we expect our God to glorify his great name; whatever that means for our family. 

Thank you for praying with us, for investing in us, for journeying with us.  It is a humble honor to walk beside so many of you. 

Journeying On,
