PRAISE GOD

Yesterday was another big day. Coleman had his doctor visits in Grand Rapids and it is usually just Coleman and I that go to these, but since we have been doing all the work up for his transplant Jared went with us. We started at 10:00 for lab, then 10:30 1st doctor. Well our 10:30 appointment was not at all on time it was at 12:45 so that meant we missed our 11:30 appointment. When Dr. Bunchman came in he said that Coleman looked great and after looking at the growth chart he said that he was right in the middle where most kids his age are, (just a reminder) kids with kidney problems don't grow like they should. Now I haven't asked, but if they ever think he is to thin I will let them know I have plenty fat to transplant if they need it, and as far as that goes I would be VERY willing to give anyone some fat. You know on the back of your liences it asks if and what you would be willing to donate why isn't there fat on there they might get more donors if they did that. Sorry about the bunny rail there. So then he pulls up his lab and until he starts reading them and telling us what they are you just hold your breathe. As he was looking at his computer he says your boy is boring. Coleman's lab were so good that he looked at us and said with labs like this we won't be having a transplant for a very long time. He said that this only the second kids that has went through the transplant workup and their labs got better. As I sit here and blog I have one of our cds playing and the song came on WHEN GOD'S PEOPLE PRAY WOW the words could not be anymore perfect!!! I just want to stand on top of mount everest and let the whole world know what happens when God's people pray. The song is by Wayne Watson look it up and listen to it. I also had a doctors appointment yesterday with the surgeon who will be doing the transplant when needed. I am the one and now all is done until he needs it. Only God knows that so we will give it to Him and see where we go from here. Since all this has started every winter Coleman is pretty much sick and misses alot of school, but this year we have had the stomach flu, strep throat, and influenza. Coleman has had none of them. Please praise God with us as we continue through journey.
