Ken turned 60 today and since he was feeling ok I had the kids come over and my sister and her husband and we had a little party. Ken is a very shy person and not much for parties but he was touched. He said I haven't had a party since I was a kid. I know all your prayers are helping us both go through this.
Sending a Happy Belated Birthday to Ken. I pray for him to start feeling better.
I know that really sucks about being able to get the Blood Transfusion, but if they give it to him and his platelets havn'e gone below 15, the Insurance company will not pay for it. I know it sucks.
Prayers still continue. He really does look in the picture.
