Wednesday is a BIG procedure day. Dempsey will be sedated so that both a bone marrow biopsy and spinal tap can be performed. This is wicked scary for me (and Jake, too, I assume). I praise God that my baby will be sedated and that they say the pain is minimal post-procedure.
Please pray that our baby will feel NO PAIN post-surgery.
Pray that his MIND is protected and that he will NOT REMEMBER anything negative.
Pray that the doctors have steady hands and that the anesthesiologist is laser-focused and accurate with their drugs.
Pray for our mommy and daddy hearts.
We are ripped open, exposed, each time a procedure (even small ones) is executed on our baby. Our nerves are so wracked they don't know which way is up.
The good to come from Wednesday's big procedures- RESULTS. These tests will bring us one day closer to knowing exactly what Dempsey has and then we PLAN and EXECUTE the plan. This is HUGE.
More on that later... it's 01:30 and I'm spent.

ReplyDeleteHi Coral, you don't know me...I saw your blog shared on facebook by Monica Meraz (the sister of a good friend of mine). I wanted to let you know I've recently walked a road somewhat similar to yours - in January 2015 my 7 year old son was diagnosed with Lymphoma. It was a very tough road to get through treatment, but we made it and he's now in remission! I will be praying for your son (especially) and the rest of your family. Let me know if you have ANY questions you think I might be able to answer. I also want to let you know about a resource that has been a TREMENDOUS help to our family: Momcology! They are a support group you can join on facebook made up of parents of cancer children. I've been able to ask questions, feel validated & safe in sharing my feelings, and eventually also help answer questions as well. If you go to www.momcology.org and on that home page click on "Join a group" (under the main picture), you can be added to any of the many groups they have. Again, I'll be praying for you all...take care. ~Andrea Herschberger

DeletePraying for you all today
ReplyDeleteWonderful that there are those online support groups that Andrea mentions. Of course there's everything online these days, so shouldn't be at all surprised at this specialty niche group. I can only imagine that people who've been-there-done-that would be able to be a great source of information, encouragement, sympathy, comfort in a way that others of us can't (of course, that's what you've got Sue for, right?!!). Continuing in prayer... Arleen
ReplyDeleteOh, p.s., thanks for changing the background... makes reading posts SOOO much easier :)
