Great news! Our friend Kristen is going to be able to come home from the hospital today! After seemingly endless trials, tests, worry, and prayer, her white blood count, oxygen levels, and heart rate are all at normal levels. Although very sick, Kristen has kept high spirits and even been mischevious with the nurses. In one case, while her mom was in the shower, she convinced a nurse to open a bag of Cheetos that her mom had repeatedly said she couldn't eat until lunchtime. What a stinker! Kisha, Kristen's mom, decided last night that it was time to get specific with her prayers, and prayed for Kristen's white blood count to rise to 1000. Overnight, it jumped from the 400's to the 1100's!!!!!!! We are all so grateful that Kristen is doing so well. She has had several scary nights, and kept us all on our knees. If you are interested, you can log into www.carepages.com, and search for KristenMackenzie2007. Her parents have been awesome, updating friends and family everyday. Please keep them all in your prayers, as Kristen heals and continues the fight.

Hey Ashley and Mackenzie~ I had kept up with this heart-wrenching story, and I'm so glad to hear that all is better with this family. That is terrifying! We take for granted sometimes that we have healthy children. I will continue to pray for this family! Thanks for the update! :)
