WE just don't know...

Again, we are still so thankful for the healing/cure of the Myelofibrosis, the primary reason Becky had to have the stem cell transplant..Now, we just want to banish the Graft vs. Host disease. It appears Becky will not be home for Thanksgiving, not that we were counting on it, but we sure were hoping and praying for this to happen. She felt good today, but was disheartened to hear Dr. say: "this is going to take some time." She said she is grateful the disease is only in her intestinal area, which causes discomfort, but there is some consolation in knowing it is not in the liver or other areas, which can happen. Abbey just asked me write that everyone pray for a miracle..that Becky would somehow be home by Thanksgiving..I told her, of course, I would certainly broadcast this. Abbey is aware this may not happen, but the eyes and soul of a child are filled with overwhelming optimism, a wanting of the best, it is such an infectious purity that causes adults to reach a little deeper themselves. It's simple..think good thoughts, pray good things..

Pray we all remain optimistic, no matter when Becky may come home. This WILL PASS. In time, these uncertain days will be a distant memory.

Much love to you all.. Celebrate Life.. Breathe in..Breathe out..
May the Lord make HIS face to shine upon you and give you peace..

Bill, Becky & Abbey
