Kenny Update – July 5th


Proton Treatment #25 completed today with 15 more to go. Kenny also has received Chemo each day this week. Tomorrow after his proton treatment he will be heading to the hospital to get his monthly pneumonia preventative breathing treatment, chemo and he will have new blood labs drawn to check his levels.

All in all – it is going well. So having said all of that it appears that I will be heading to Bible Bowl Nationals this weekend with Pop, Julie and Ben.

Prayer concerns
His weight is down; however his enzyme levels are in a safe range.
Some minor issues have appeared and are being monitored.
Blood counts are good tomorrow and chemo is able to continue next week.
The patience ‘thing’ is a tough act with me. We are not going to know how effective this treatment has been for about 9 more weeks.

Praises
Kenny ate almost one whole hot dog in a bun yesterday evening and a small handful of potato chips. He repeated it again at lunch today. Funny how this is a praise.
Other than losing energy quickly – Kenny is doing extremely well.
Kenny is making good progress on his remaining school work. There is light at the end of the tunnel and it is not the train.

Thank you one and all for your continued prayers on our behalf. You have and are making a difference. 
~Ken and Jo~
