Sinusitus?!

Not what we expected. After all the tests, Joshua has a really bad sinus infection. This is good news because we have answers and the doctors have a plan. Joshua was sent home with three weeks of antibiotics. If the fevers continue, a procedure to remove the build up in his sinuses will be performed. If they continue still, more tests. We will pray that the antibiotics do the work and that the hospital stays are coming to an end. We are due at the clinic again on Wednesday to check counts and start chemo again. It feels strange, but I am looking forward to a Wednesday.

We are happy to be home and are thankful for all of the prayers you have prayed.

Thank the Lord for an ANSWER to the problem! It's so strange how these little ones can act normal with a sinus infection when they make adults so miserable. Hope he is able to get back to normal soon. (And what a good picture!)

I love the pictures! You are such a lovely family! And my children!
Yah, you are home and I so hope Joshua sinus responds to the medications.
I love you all so much. Mom

Praise that it was something so 'normal'!! I know even the 'normal' things can throw you into a taispin, but at least you can do something about it. Love the keeping him entertained pics:)

Sinusitis, wow!? I hate that junk. I bet Joshua hates it even more. Glad to know that it's something as simple as that & nothing more serious. We're praying for a speedy recovery!
