Donna has continued to make progress in her physical strength and her ability to eat--to the point where there is beginning to be talk of her release to the clinic for continued treatment. The docs have indicated that all of the treatments she is currently receiving for the TTP can be managed at the clinic. Donna is working very hard toward reaching that goal right now. Also, the creatinine went down again over the weekend. This indicates that Donna's kidneys are on the mend!
Needless to say, Donna is very excited at the possibility of getting out of the hospital and into the apartment. However, please continue to pray that her strength will keep increasing. While Donna is much, much stronger than she was just a few weeks ago, she still is a bit unsteady and weak, especially as the day wears on and fatigue starts to settle in.
Please also keep Donna's family in prayer this week during these developments. There will be many decisions to be made about caregiver schedules and moving people back and forth between Virginia, Maryland, and North Carolina.

Have been keeping up with your progress from the blog. It is so refreshing to open this up and see how well you are doing. It gives me strength to read how far you have come and how encouraging you are. Keep up the good work and keep encouraging us as we try to encourage you. Larry would always tell me how you were doing and when he e-mailed me this blog. I just can't wait to see the next up-date on you. May God continue to bless you and your sweet family. Monica is a sweetheart. I know Larry would tell you Hi if he were here, but you know someone has to work.HHAHAHAHA!!
