"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever." - Psalm 23

September 29th, 2010

Hello Everyone, I apologize for the delayed update on how I am doing. My recovery is continuing to go well. I have been to the cancer center in Goshen two times to get labs drawn and both times my blood tests were positive. This week when I got my labs drawn my levels were mostly all improved. My white blood cells level is at 2.9 which is the highest it has been in a while, I also had an increase in granulocytes, which are immature white blood cells so that is very good as well. My hemoglobin was at 12.1, that is an increase as well. My platelets went down a little bit but are still in the normal range. Things are still not where they are supposed to be but they are moving in the right direction which is encouraging. It is rather crazy thinking that a little over a month from today is when I got my catheter out, it seems like it has been a lot longer than that and I am continually grateful to be where I am today and as healthy as I am today.

Thanks for your continued support

Austin
