Number 24

Monday, August 8, 2011

So our time at home is winding down, but we are ready and prepared to deal with tomorrow and the next week.  I anticipated driving up tonight (Monday) to stay in a hotel so that we would make our 8:30 appointment, but Jordon has decided he would like to sleep comfortably at home tonight, so we will be leaving bright and early in the morning with hopes of making it there by 8:30.  So please pray for safe driving tomorrow morning.  When we finally came home after Jordon's initial hospital stay, some little birdies came into our house, cleaned it, and put all new sheets, comforters and pillows on all the beds, so Jordon has enjoyed sleeping in his new bed at home.  I do not want to deprive him of anything when it is not absolutely necessary, since we will be asking a lot of him over the next few months.

Today was quite busy.  First the home health nurse came to visit.  We must make sure all his blood work looks good for the chemo tomorrow.  Jordon also drank lots of ginger ale today since it helps with any nausea he may have.  Then our oldest went to register for middle school.  When we get back from the hospital stay, school will start that week.  Jordon is ready to go!  The teachers have all prepared for him and we have worked with the school to have a plan of action during his hospital stays.  Finally, the girls planned out their week and are excited to get to do so many things to wrap up the summer.  

Prayers are appreciated over this next week.  Prayers for the family, prayers for Jordon, and prayers for peace.  Praises are that we were home the entire anticipated time and that the family got to spend a lot of time together.  Praises that we have such wonderful friends and family to help us through this time.
