Thank you everyone so much for your prayers this last month. I have really felt the Lord by my side lately.

Ben had quite a time last week. He is still sick and we seem to be dealing with a really tough virus. Ben spiked a temperature on Thursday night of last week. When I took his temperature at home it was 103 degrees. We called the on-call physician and he had us go to the local ER so Ben could be checked out. By the time we got there his temp was 105.2 and climbing. They could not give him Tylenol until his blood was checked. They had to be sure he did not have some specific problems that the Tylenol would interfere with. Finally they were able to bring his temp down to a normal range. He still had a horrible cough, so they x-rayed him again. The x-ray came back clear. They aloud us to go home that night, but we were instructed to watch him closely for fever again.
So far this weekend he has not had any trouble with fever but his cough has gotten really bad this morning. Every time he coughs he says it hurts really bad. Poor guy.

Ben has an appointment with the Oncologist on Tuesday morning so I will update you on his situation when I get home.

Love you all

Jamie
