Hello all. Well, as you may have noticed, there hasn't
been much as far as Josie updates lately. In our minds, that is
good. It means she's behaving herself. :) The past month has
been relatively quiet, with only one trip to the ER, which thankfully did not
result in a hospital stay. She had some sort of fever that, of course,
went away as soon as Darcia and Jo reached the ER (at 3:30 am). They were home by 7:30, and things have been pretty good since then.
Josie has started up Physical Therapy again, at the Rehab
Center and at our house.
She's also got Speech Therapy, and is back in the swing of things as far as
chemo goes. Josie continues to grow, and has started a new diet this
week. Hopefully that will give her the nutrients and such that she
requires as a 1 year old. I guess baby formula only goes so far.
Darcia has been pretty busy getting Josie to various
appointments, juggling things around the house, and setting up appointments and
get-togethers for Reese and Eliza. Also getting things ready for
back-to-school time. That should make things....more busy, I
suppose!
Anyway, we haven't fallen off the face of the earth, we're
just back to our "normal" life with Jo. Thanks so much for your
continued prayers and thoughts.
We hope to see you at
Josie's birthday celebration, if you can make it! (August 20, 1-4 pm,
Blythefield Hills Baptist Church, Rockford, MI, open house, no gifts
please!).
