PRAISE REPORT on Isla McAlpin (from CaringBridge 3/1): This past week has been a week of thanks—so many thanks. We are so humbled and overwhelmed by the news: All tests are back—Isla is CANCER FREE. What a journey it has been. We aren’t quite done, with one round of maintenance chemo to go, but she’s officially in remission. I’m so thankful for the gift of medicine. So thankful for our God who never turned His face from us. So thankful for the story He’s writing in our lives. We’ve been carried by you, friends. On days when I couldn’t imagine how we’d survive, your gifts, words, texts, calls, and prayers were our refuge. We are forever thankful for you.
Today, Isla is feeling good. We know she will “bottom out” from the most recent round (they call it maintenance but it’s still a fairly intense cadence of high dose chemo), but the end is in sight. We are anticipating starting her final round on March 16, but will know the exact date as we get close. Please continue to pray specifically:
-no complications as her counts drop
-no fevers
-no bleeding
-psychological healing and alleviation of fear (this applies to our whole family)
-that our house would be complete and we’d able to move SOON and be together as a family in our new space.
Thank you, sweet friends.

UPDATE on Aunt Carol (2/26): We had a zoom meeting with both Surgeons. They showed us the pictures of all her CT scans. At this point her brain position is back to original spot. The MRI shows no major damage to the brain. She is still in a coma BUT has responded to simple commands. We have guarded optimism. Praise God, and thank you for your continued prayers.

UPDATE: Antoinette reports her foot is getting better and is not broken, PTL! She is on an antibiotic, but still has a productive cough and is tired. She asks prayer for her family, who are also ill, and she is trusting the LORD for guidance and provision, as she must move out of her apartment by the end of May.

Please pray for Ukraine and particularly for Katya P and her family. Katya was a foreign exchange student who lived with my sister until Covid, when she had to return home. Please pray for God's protection over them.

UPDATE on Aunt Carol: The neurosurgeon has informed us that she is not doing what they would expect, and the blood and fluid in her brain has increased and thickened so trying to drain it isn't working. They plan to do another craniotomy today to remove the mass, but this time they will keep part of the skull off in order to monitor what is happening. The length of this procedure is around 3-4 hours. If all goes well, she has a 40% of quality of life. Please continue to pray for God's will and purposes in all this, and for His healing touch upon her and His grace and peace and strength for my uncle and the whole family. Thank you!
