IT'S ABOUT TIME......

So this has been a LONG journey for Abby Jean but we are finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. So in the past week we have had nothing but good news which is a first throughout this whole journey. Wednesday Abby had her clinic appointment and found out that her viral load was ZERO which was completely unexpected. It had only been dropping by like .7 each week, the week before it was 4.6 and now it is zero. A true miracle for sure. Then yesterday Abby called to inform me that her results came back from her stomach drain. Well her pancreas has been leaking for almost 6 months and now the results show that there is very little pancreatic enzymes in the fluid. Which means it isn't leaking anymore!! She will have a CT scan soon to see how big the fluid collection still is, if it is about gone they will pull the drains out.

This is it, the news we have been waiting for! For 6 months it has been ups and downs and worry and tears. But now the tears are happy tears, she is getting better she really is! Her liver is great her kidney is great, her pancreas is better, her virus and pneumonia are gone, and her white count is great. She is even keeping food down now as well and has a little bit of an appetite again. She still has to stay on the antiviral for another week so she will still have side effects from that. Which are no fun it makes her hair fall out and her skin peel. But that will be over with soon enough. She still needs to build her strength back as well, it takes everything she has just to get up a few stairs. But she will get there we know she will!

Really this is the healthiest she has been in 6 months and we couldn't be happier. Life is good in the Fullmer family again. She is even celebrating by going on a little vacation with my parents this week.

We are so blessed and want to thank everyone for the prayers, fasting and thoughts on Abby's behalf. She is our miracle for sure who would of thought that we would have so many in this family.

Way to get better Abby!!
