The Envelope Please!
Valerie from His Grave Foundation made another visit today. She is such a sweet lady and doing so much for the kids on the Bone Marrow Transplant floor at TX Childrens Hospital. For Matthew she came bearing an envelope! Inside the envelope was an application for a possible scholarship from His Grace. As we head down the post BMT road, and the Adventure continues in a different and better way, Matthew will appreciate this blessing.
As for other news, Matthew is rwmaining fever free and his numbers are holding very nicely. So nicely in fact that they continue to reduce the amount of meds he is on. And so well, in fact, that they are even talking about a possible Friday release! Thank you Lord for these steps in the right direction!!!
He started eating food again yesterday and is continuing the same today. His 18 hours of IV food should be reduced to 12 hours tomorrow. If he gets his oral nutrition level up by Friday he might even get released without needing the IV food at home. If only the hospital food tasted better. He could have some outside food but it would need to be made fresh and get to him quickly. They want all their patients to eat extra careful for a few months after engrafting.
Matthew is currently hard at work catching up on
