\nAnd we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. – 2 Cor 3:18<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
God\u2019s glory was on display the other morning. It’s a special gift to get to see the sunrise from our dining room, at least when the clouds back off a little. We are frequently blown away; these images reflect His beauty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God\u2019s glory was on display also at a concert I attended with the kids. We went to see TobyMac, part of a Christmas gift. This was a major blast from my past and I was blown away by how fun it was to watch my kids worship and enjoy, just like I did at their age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last Friday, God\u2019s glory was also on display, but instead of lights and fog machines we were looking at radiology images. Chris\u2019s PET results and MRI results were 100% clear and showed no concerning signs to his medical teams. Blown away is an understatement, thank you Lord for this gift. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We needed to wait until Tuesday 3\/3 at 8pm to hear about the next steps for Car-T therapy due to a virus Chris caught; that is part of our delay in writing this post and sharing our news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chris will go to Chicago on Wednesday, March 5th and he will be isolated at his parent\u2019s home as our kiddos just bring home too many \u201cgifts\u201d (viruses) from school. He needs time to heal and prepare for chemotherapy before the Car-T infusion. I will join him on March 11th and Chris\u2019s parents will come and stay with the kids with further support from my parents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lord willing, in preparation for CAR-T Chris will have three days of outpatient chemo (March 12-14), he will recover over the weekend, and then be admitted to Northwestern Hospital on March 17th for 1-2 weeks, with an expected infusion of Car-T on March 18th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prayers<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-That the time Chris spends in isolation would be beneficial to help him heal from his current virus and protection from anything that would prevent Car-T from moving forward and being successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-For the kids and I as we experience such a long time without Chris in our home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-For our eyes to remain open to the images of His goodness and care in our everydays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-For continued prayers for good friends for our kids.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
