Day 12 & 13 Look at Him Gleam

Look what I found, Nick's contagious smile, how beautiful!
Day 12 was another extremely painful and difficult day, so I prefer to move right on to today, Day 13.  I think its fairly ironic that 13 happens to be Nick's favorite number.  He was born on September 13th, but he also considers Friday the 13th one of the "luckiest days of the year".  Isn't that so like him.  When everyone else thinks of it as a terribly unlucky day, Nick takes the positive road.  Well, THIS 13 (Friday or not) has shaped up to be a good day for us.  It's the first day that Nick is getting some sort of relief.  He's still in pain from mouth sores and has some stomach soreness, but said he feels "a little better than yesterday".  Thank you, Lord...and thank you all for your prayers.  Please, keep them coming.  Counts are starting to "trend" in the right direction.  Doctor's won't say the transplant was a success just yet, but by early next week..if counts are still going back up...we'll know for sure.  Here are the counts for Day 11, Day 12, and now Day 13:

  4. Nick, to cheer your difficult time: met a fan of Little Greek in Palm Harbor who knows your franchisee and just loves the restaurant. He is the body guard and personal assistant to the new CEO of Coca Cola Bottling Florida company. Of course, we are praying for your healing day and night and for Rene to be blessed with grace and wisdom of being a loving wife.
