Update for Andrea 1-1-06

On Saturday Andrea had a better day than today, but God continues to heal Andrea. She continues to sit up in bed and brush her teeth. The last couple of days she has not got much sleep and wants to stay up and talk. Yesterday she seemed very peaceful and talked all day. When I left on in the morning at 3AM she was running a 101 fever but seemed to be feeling ok.

Today her fever was about the same and received dialysis. While they were doing the dialysis she started to get really cold and her temp went up (not to 104 this time but it did go up). She complained about her tummy hurting real bad and they decided to stop a little early on the dialysis. When I left tonight her temp was falling and it looked as though she sweating her fever off as the nurses were taking her down for a CT of her tummy. The stomach doctor thought it might be the combination of IBS (that Andrea already had before all of this) and her being off all pain meds today.

I have a really good feeling that tomorrow we will have a better day. If she could just break this fever it seems as though she would get much better. Let's all pray that she be strong and get through this little bump in her road. Remember she has already passed over bumps much larger than the one she is facing now. Andrea is so strong and continues to amaze us all. Pray for her to keep her faith and ask God to be with her at all times holding her hand.

Happy New Year J and Dre...May 2006 bring you the happiness you deserve. I actually saw Andrea today and even with yellowing skin she still looked beautiful...I miss talking to her and am always thinking of what the future holds...Lots of laughs and crys, trips to the beach, and long talks about a whole lot of nothing...Tell her I love her!!!

Many prayers for a Healthy New Year. Tell Andrea that the old Laguna Meadows crowd got together yesterday for the usual New Years and it was not the same without the Luthringers. All our prayers are with all of you and we hope to come see you soon.
We love you,
Kevin and Mary Frances
