Monday ~ Day +230

Evening All,

I'm not sure anymore what age I should go by; 59 1/2 or my donors age of 37 or 230 days since transplant or add them together for a little over 97. I think I like the 230 days old the best as I'm more like the toddler learning new things about their body every day. We truly are fearfully and wonderfully made. I had my clinic in Chicago today and, of course, I was redder than they like to see but they let me stay on the low dose of steroid. (10 mg) My hemoglobin was finally in the normal range for me at 13.6; first time since a year ago May. Still have to watch my blood sugar while I'm on the prednisone but that too shall pass. I'm still here because of His faithfulness, the prayers of His people, my family and a loving and patient helpmeet. Thank you all for the added years to come, God willing. My next visit is in five weeks, August 18th. Have a great week.

Pressing on,
Steve (and Dawn)

  1. Praise the Lord! Sounds like a very good report today and that is exactly what we were praying for! So thankful that the Lord continues to give you HIS peace and comfort on the path He has led you down. HE is so faithful....on that we can depend.
    Love you guys!
