I know it's been awhile since I've touched base. The last entry accidentally ended up on Sawyer's blog instead of Dempsey's... a clear sign of a frazzled mom at that time.
Anyway, here are some updates:
NEEDS
- Financial support as our insurance changes (we are running low on funds to cover the high deductible we're facing)
PayPal || YouCaring - Ideas/ ways/ a team to help with fundraising
I would LOVE to try an Instagram auction but fear I am not efficient enough on my own with all that I have going on right now. - Laundry detergent (on our Amazon list)
- **Epsom salt and Baking soda (on our Amazon list)
PRAISES
- Dempsey's counts are excellent. All his numbers are right where the docs want them.
- We only go to CHOC for the mandatory once-a-month appointments/ infusions or procedures.
- Still no negative side effects. Praise God!
- He continues to THRIVE through treatment- turning heads wherever he goes.
- School is going well... and by "school" I mean his Friday Core Class at Called2Home.
- Soccer with YouthKicks is going well. This is such a wonderful outlet for all Dempsey's energy and competitiveness.
- Your prayers are being answered... our son is a living, breathing MIRACLE and we have God and you to thank for that.
PRAYER REQUESTS
- Pray against negative side effects
- Pray for open doors/ opportunities
- Pray for strength
- Pray for peace
- Pray for PTSD to disappear
- Pray for joy

- Pray that we bring God honor and glory through all that we do
- Pray that we lean into each other and grow tighter as a family
- Pray that we stand firm and are not shaken or bullied into things we know to not be right for us
