Tuesday = BMT Day!

Well, day is the day for the bone marrow transplant.
We are very excited and very optimistic. God is with us.
Trent has been dealing with some of the effects of radiation, but looked in very good spirits yesterday.

The transplant is scheduled for 10pm tonight, but the doctor said yesterday that it could be anytime after 10pm. Those guys at CHOC are never in any big hurry, and that's OK. They have many kids with some really big needs. When you pray for Trent today, please add a little prayer for all the kids at CHOC and the donor too! After 15 months of dealing with cancer, we have seen so many kids/familys that have lots of challenges. We have also seen some people with some really big hearts, the doctors, nurses, our donor and Trent's teacher's, Liz and Brent, have all gone out of their way to care for Trent particular needs. Our family, friends and church family continues to provide meals, prayers and support so that we are never alone during this challenge. Our God has always been with us every step of the way and we are encouraged by His constant presence.

The BMT recovery will take several weeks so please pray for Trent's body to take in his transplant and recover without rejection.
