Numbers and Disney...

Wanted to do a quick post to update you on Abbey's numbers. Her numbers were still low as of Friday, but they are up a little from last week. Her ANC is around 450 and all her cell lines were up a little so they seem like they are trending up and will continue to rise. Her platelets were up a good amount so we were very encouraged by that. We will go back on Tuesday (the day before we leave for Disney World) to check once more. If they are over 750 when we go back, it will be like a building was lifted off my shoulders. Please continue to pray for her body to get stronger.

And the Make a Wish people came last night with our packet. We are amazed and excited beyond words for our trip! Just a few fun details to share... a limo will be picking us up on Wednesday morning to take us to the airport :). We will be staying in an all inclusive resort in a cute little house where meals are free along with everything else there (there's lots to do there alone!). We have tickets to all the Disney World parks along with lots of other parks in the area like Sea World and Aquatica. And they are even giving us spending money (lots of spending money :) for souveniers and whatever else we want to spend it on. They have everything covered! Did I mention that we are really excited?! :)

We just got back from Disney last night!! It was awesome and I know that you guys will have a GREAT time!!! Tell Casey Jr (that is what our Charlie calls the train that goes around the park) that we miss him already!!

I will continue to pray for you guys and hope that Abbey's numbers continue to improve.

We saw several kiddos at Disney that were there through Make A Wish. Each time I saw one of them I said a little prayer for them and praised God that such an organization even exists and helps families build memories together!

Blessings!
