Going in the Right Direction

IMG_3705

A quick little update. Libby had a great day yesterday and night last night. The really good news is that her white blood count went up again and is now at .6. Going in the right direction!

If you look at that image of where she is in the “Wine Cellar,” she is nearing the upward curve, which means there is light at the end of the first tunnel. A few more tunnels to go, but it’s really awesome!

Libby is staying very busy, which probably doesn’t come as a big shock to anyone.  They took out her triple port and are using the original one now. Accessing her port was not pleasant but it’s one step closer to being home.

She made a new friend on her floor who made her a sweet hat. That friend had her transplant yesterday so Libby wrote her a happy birthday note and took her one of her extra games and puzzles, books and some chocolate.

She and Sheri are working hard to expedite the Master Bedroom renovations and tie up loose ends on the Townhome that Alex will live in next year at Auburn.

Then, last night, she and Sheri watched the season finale of The Bachelor!

So, if you reach out to Libby and don’t get a response as quickly as you would like, just know that she feels as well as can possibly be expected and is keeping super busy with all that. Thank you for all of the continued prayers. She is truly being buoyed by them. Specific prayers right now are for the engraftment to continue, to keep her side effects well managed, and to keep her healthy from any bugs.

  1. The Climb
    Miley Cyrus
    I can almost see it
    That dream I’m dreaming but
    There’s a voice inside my head saying
    You’ll never reach it,
    Every step I’m taking,
    Every move I make feels
    Lost with no direction
    My faith is shaking but I
    Gotta keep trying
    Gotta keep my head held high
    There’s always gonna be another mountain
    I’m always gonna wanna make it move
    Always gonna be an uphill battle
    Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose
    Ain’t about how fast I get there
    Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
    It’s the climb
    The struggles I’m facing
    The chances I’m taking
    Sometimes might knock me down but
    No I’m not breaking
    I may not know it
    But these are the moments that
    I’m going to remember most yeah
    Just got to keep going
    And I
    I gotta be strong
    Just keep pushing on, ’cause
    There’s always gonna be another mountain
    I’m always gonna wanna make it move
    Always gonna be an uphill battle
    Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose
    Ain’t about how fast I get there
    Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
    It’s the climb (yeah)
    There’s always gonna be another mountain
    I’m always gonna wanna make it move
    Always gonna be a uphill battle
    Sometimes you gonna have to lose
    Ain’t about how fast I get there
    Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
    It’s the climb (yeah yeah ea ea)
    Keep on moving
    Keep climbing
    Keep the faith baby
    It’s all about
    It’s all about
    The climb
    Keep the faith
    Keep your faith
