Greetings!!

We’re delighted to open this posting by saying that we had a FANTASTIC time in November and December celebrating birthdays and holidays with our children, grandchildren and good friends. Our only regret is that everyone who reads this entry was not there to celebrate with us!

Unfortunately, Suzie is encountering new road blocks: an upper respiratory infection that a z-pack was unable to conquer and a sudden, and significant, decrease in her red blood count.

The fear with the infection is that it will go into her lungs and further inhibit her ability to breathe. We are hoping that a weeks worth of Levaquin will resolve this issue.

The fear with the decrease in her red blood count is that the decrease is permanent and that she will be dependent on blood transfusions because she will no longer be able to produce red blood cells on her own.

We are both praying that the Levaquin works and that the sudden decrease in red blood cells is a temporary phenomenon due to the upper respiratory infection and/or the recent introduction of new drugs to her system.

We will keep everyone posted, as change occurs, on our blog:
