So now that I’ve shared Brynna’s story, I wanted to blog an update on the last couple of weeks. After d-day, things moved FAST. When she was admitted, her white blood cell count was 600,000 (“normal” is between 5,000-10,000). We were told that this was one of the highest (if not the highest) they had ever seen. Her blood was literally sludge when she was admitted.
Today I just wanted to share some of our God sightings and miracles, both big and small, that we’ve had over the past couple of weeks. I’m trying my best to write everything down, because there are SO many praises and miracles and God sightings. We are clinging to these and our victories (both big and small), through this whole process.
I’m not even really sure where to begin with this blog. I want to share our story, the start of our nightmare journey, but as I stare at the screen, how do I do that? It’s every parent’s worst nightmare to have to associate the word “cancer” with your child. How did we get here? Why Brynna? What happened? So many unknowns, so many questions we will never get an answer to. We have been rocked to the core, had our world turned upside down, yet God is still God. God is still good. That hasn’t changed, and we haven’t doubted that. In fact, I’ve felt God in a bigger way than I EVER have in my life, in just these past few days. It’s truly incredible.
Thank you for following along on Brynna’s journey in her fight against childhood leukemia. I will share updates, prayer requests, and other information as often as I can here. Please feel free to share with others, and ask questions as they come up!
