UPDATE ON ANN AND JIM'S GRANDSON AND ON BIRDIE

From his mother:

He went in for his X-ray yesterday and the results came back today and were perfectly normal (he and I even got to look at the X-ray just after it was taken-- it was pretty cool). The next step is the ultrasound in 2 weeks.

Thanks for your encouragement and support. It means a lot to us.

Please continue your prayers.

If you recall, we prayed for Birdie a while back. Brian at Noble Wolfe received the following from Birdie:

I am finishing my fourth course of chemo, which will bring a new wave of cluelessness. But that's okay, because today's exam showed NO MEASURABLE TUMOR in my breast—and the last exam said the same about the node tumor. The large tumor measured six by seven centimeters at the start of chemotherapy, and the node was three centimeters. The kind of cancer I have (triple negative) is not always responsive to chemo, so we didn't know what to expect.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's working. I am so thankful and full of hope for my future. Hope is the stuff of life.

Thanks be to God, to all who prayed for Birdie, and for all who cared for Birdie during her illness.
