Body: Thanks so much for your prayer support for our family this weekend. It was a special weekend to honor a much loved father, grandfather and servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. We flew to WI on Friday and the Lord kept us all healthy through the preparations for the service and a wonderfully full and meaningful service of tribute to dad and worship of the Lord. The entire "clan" (33 members at last count) were there and involved. Mom Landru is doing well, but difficult days lie ahead and I would appreciate your prayer support for her.
Many of you are aware that the blood counts last Thursday were very low (LL for my white counts and L for reds) which caused some concern and several lectures from the Yale staff about the seriousness of the situation as I travelled. I used a mask on the trips out and back and felt very good throughout the weekend. Thanks for praying. We arrived back from WI early this morning due to travel delays. I avoided as much contact with people as possible and was feeling great this morning.
Blood counts initially looked good this morning and they gave me part of the regimen, but then received word from the physician's assistant that my red counts were too low and so I would need to wait until next week for chemo. As I looked closely, the red counts are now LL, so I would appreciate your prayer about that as well.
Again, I have no anxiety about this and am resting in a Sovereign God who knows what should take place and when. I would ask that you pray that I can remain healthy this week and be ready for next Tuesday through Thursday!!
Your prayer support for Andrea, her mom, our family and her extended family have been so deeply appreciated. The Lord has been our Strength and Comfort. He is our Salvation.

ReplyDeleteDear Dave,
ReplyDeleteYou are such a strong individual and like David, during his good spiritual times, you know that God knows everything and to Him nothing is a suprise. To also know that He has assured us that He will take everything and and turn it around for our good. Yes, God has a special place waiting for you, but only He knows when the time is right for you to be called into that city of gold, but until that time you are a major blessing to all those whom you know and come into contact with. May God shine His face on you and your family for patience - guidance - peace and to experience His glorus loving arms wraped around you and yours during this trial.
Bless you my Friend.
