Great News!!

Have some very exciting news for you all!

Yesterday Hannah saw her Lupus doctor who worked with her in the hospital. He said he is very positive about her recovery, as all the health markers from labs are going in the right direction up or down.

The really good news? While in the hospital, her active lupus level indicator, which would read below 5 for a normal person, read 634! Today it is only 10! WOO HOO!

Because of the overall improvement, the doctor is lowering the dosage on some of her blood pressure pills and steroids (prednesone...). The $4000 IV rituxin(sp?), which she received twice by IV, is still coursing through her body continuing to work for another 6 months. She still will be on CellCept for a couple more years, helping control the Lupus autoimmune response. But, the doctor is also quite hopeful Hannah could be off of kidney dialysis within 6 months.

She'll see the doctor again in two months.

Thank you sooo very much for your prayers! We praise our heavenly Father for watching over us!
