PAOLA UPDATE

Dear Friends,

Paola is currently out of the hospital, and feels OK, though her red blood cell level is still low, around 26,000 the last time it was checked, when it needs to be 150,000. She needs to be careful not to injure herself in anyway and not do anything strenuous. November 12 she will go for a check to make sure that it is continuing its upward climb. She is being treated with steroids now, and we all know that those have side effects, so we are still praying for a complete miracle cure. The urgency of the Human Gamagoblulin is not as great, but we want to know of sources if it is needed in the future, so don't stop looking. I want to thank all of the folks who have sent in their pledges to help, we were able to pay the initial hospital and additional funds will be used for the medicines she needs for the next few weeks. Keep praying, and hopefully November 12 we will have a good report.

God bless
Ken
