This morning Matthew is doing very well! It is my last day here in Baltimore and its been a wonderful visit with him. I feel that he is more encouraged and ready for the next round of chemo on Friday. To hear that the Saints are 4-0 has got him really excited. His PVC number (which shows the number of irregular heart beats) is low which is a good sign that the magnesium and potassium they are giving him is working. This morning his hearing is better which is an answer to prayer. We decided to show him the cards that all the Super Church kids wrote him! They really encouraged him and brought him joy! Aunt Noel and I laughed at some of the things the the kids wrote, but we are very grateful for all the cards!
Today he is going to do some physical therapy and they are going to assist him in standing up. Look for pictures soon. The nurse said his bed sore has gotten smaller! The nurses and doctors are really encouraged by his improvement! Keep Matthew in your prayers it's Christ's healing power that is causing this improvement!
