Update for Elijah

This morning Elijah and I went to Children's Hospital in Seattle and met with the orthopedic surgeon team. Dr. Song said that the tumor in his leg is growing and the risks outweigh the benefits of doing surgery right now. Since the tumor is slowly growing, the procedure to fix it is to put rods in his leg. Well he has that. The donor graph took but only 10%. To repeat again, the likelihood of it actually taking is 20% so we wait. Elijah can return to gymnastics in the fall. So all in all this is good news. The rods will stay and of course and reevaluate in December. Two years later. I am blessed for medical coverage for him because I say the hospital bill from December 2008 and it was almost 2 million dollars. Thank you God.

I have mixed feelings about the waiting processes but I will trust the Dr's that God has placed in our lives. After all, Dr. Song is on the research team and is the best in the Northwest.
