Moving Forward...

Over the past few days Ammon has continued to improve, which is wonderful. It is so great to walk into his hospital room and only see a continuous feed bag and water, no ivs, no medicine drips, just meds and flushes in the morning and night. Ammon has been having good days and then sleeping fairly well at night. His blood counts jumped back up last night, which means he has officially been cleared for his next round of chemo today. You’ve heard my thoughts too many times on this already, but this is just how it is. At the moment you are doing better, particularly after having been so critically ill, your reward is another round of life saving chemo. You keep being brave like Ammon and moving forward, because it is the only way to go. We are optimistic that Ammon will weather this round better, although we do expect to remain in the hospital indefinitely. In fact, Wednesday Ammon marked his fourth week in the PICU, and he’s made a lot of friends and received countless blessings along the way.

Below are some older pictures of Ammon smiling. This is what we are all looking forward to again.
