Thank you all for your continued prayer support for John during these last few days.

Today John's condition is holding steady for the most part. X-rays of his chest remain unchanged today. John's breathing has been shallow at times and he's received oxygen as needed. His platelets remain low. His levels have been around 44,000 and the goal is to hold steady at 50,000. As a result he is continuing to receive platelets. The issue with the platelets is cause for concern and should be added to your specific prayer list concerning John's treatment and recovery. John is receiving three different kinds of chemo, and is now receiving treatment through his pick-line. He has been placed on a heart monitor because this type of treatment can be hard on the heart. His hemoglobin is holding steady. Mornings seem to be better than evenings for John. He is still experiencing constant headaches and has very little energy. He has received alot of visitors today. The family is thankful for all your support.

Sunday night at 6:00 there will be an opportunity to join together for a time of prayer as a church family for John and Brice; John's little roommate the first two nights. You will also have an opportunity to help the family in a practical way during that service. We plan to have cards for the church family to write some encouraging notes to John and Brice, following the service.
