Day 29

Today's post is a little different. I am asking that everyone please pray for our friend Erik Lemus. Erik and his dad Erik have been at the hospital since March 8th and by the time we arrived on March 31st they were our "mentors" providing us with information and words of encouragement. Erik's dad (Also Erik) and I often talk and give each other updates on our kids. When William was getting his broviak, Erik was kind enough let us look at his and even feel it. Erik is 13 and he was diagnosed with Leukemia. The chemo treatment that Erik has been getting is extremely aggressive and now he is in need of a bone marrow transplant. I am asking everyone that I know to please get tested! Erik's dad can be located on FaceBook http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000478540263. More information on bone marrow donations can be found at http://www.marrow.org/. Some quick news on William. Round 2 of chemo will end tonight at midnight. So far he is doing okay, he is just extremely agitated and emotional. The good news is that hopefully the catheter will come out in the next couple of days! WooHoo Thank you for all the love and prayers! Keep on Keeping On. LiveStrong
