Day 30

Well everyone I think the flood of prayers has worked. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! The doctors came in this morning and said my white count is climbing so quickly, that I don't need the bone marrow biopsy today, and probably not for 2 weeks. I said, "Please tell me I don't have to stay here that long" and they said no, that as soon as my levels get close to normal, I can go home and then come back to have the bone marrow biopsy as an outpatient. I wanted to jump up and kiss them. SO, KEEP UP THE PRAYERS FOR A NORMAL WHITE COUNT! I can't thank each and every one of you for the prayers and love and strength you have sent to me and my family. I love all of you. I can do this, YES I CAN !

    Congratulations on the good news! Finally a rainbow through all the storm clouds. Now you just have to focus on getting your strength back and getting your counts up and you are outta there. Like I told you before - there'll be tracks in the floor when you leave. Imagine your body filled with healing energy and rest as much as possible so you can go home and sleep in your own bed and take a nice jacuzzi soak with a sparkling glass of apple juice (hell, I'll come over and have one with you too!). I love you and I am so happy to hear that you are finally on your way home, cause we sure do miss you!!!
    Love always,
    Erika

    Hi Cindy
    WONDERFUL NEWS. I had to sing a funeral this morning and then
    Ralph and I went to the cemetery to put some SPRING FLOWERS on dad's grave. On the way home I noticed it was about the time you would be having your procedure so Ralph and I prayed together driving along Perkins Ave. to home-----praying for GOOD NEWS from you. So when I got home I went to the computer right away and there it was. THAT IS GREAT. Now the next step is to get home SOON and relax at HOME SWEET HOME. It won't be long.
    LUV YA-----MOM AND RALPH

    Cindy we are so happy for you. Thank our Lord for this blessing of good news. Let's keep praying for Cindy's continued good health.

    The trumpeter and singers joined in unison, as with one voice, to give praise and thanks to the LORD. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and other instruments, they raised thier voices in praise to the Lord and sang " He is good; his love endures forever."

    Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!Oh, Cindy, you don't know how truly wonderful it was to hear your voice and the OUTSTANDING,SPECTACULAR,TERRIFIC, AWESOME news that the count is going up! You should have seen the faces of those children when they heard me talking to you. Since I was crying, and they heard me say your name, they were frightened. Then when I told them you were getting better, they burst into smiles from "ears to ears". They said, "We did it! God and Mary heard us cause the prayers of kids are the loudest." LOL! You are coming home HEALED, Cindy. I feel it in every fiber of my body-and I have quite a few. I can't wait to see you. I don't know how to do a lot of things, but I do know how to cook and bake. So, when you get your appetite back and get hungry for something, I better get a phone call. It'll be on your doorstep the same day. I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooo VERY HAPPY for you and your family. God heard and He answered!
    Yes You DID!!!!!
    Did anything happen around 1:45 or 2:00? I had such an overwhelming feeling of peace as the kids and I recited the rosary. It was like I just knew that "bad cells" had left your body, it was if I could feel them leaving you.

    OMG Cindy..this is waaaay better than you expected, right? I was at Kerry's today and when I got home I went right to the blog and was hoping you were able to have the biopsy never giving thought that it might not be necessary right now(didn't know that was a possiblity). I can only imagine how elated you are. You continue to amaze me (add patience to the previous list of things you have taught us!)We will keep praying that you will be out of there soon. It's about time to celebrate. God is good!
    (((hugs))) and prayers,
    Daleen..and Denny too

    Morning friend,
    Looks like you're still sleeping . You probably had your first decent night's rest since this journey began over a month ago. I'm still so HAPPY for you that I had to post. It's so amazing to see ALL the people that have been writing to you-I don't think I know 42 people! We are going to keep the rosaries going until our last day of school. We'll be praying for all future blood tests etc. to be nothing but good news-they're powerful little buggers that God just couldn't help but hear and answer. Yes I can and Yes you DID!
