Here is the update from the past week. The swelling has gone in one or more parts of the body every day, to every other, and we are not on an every third day cycle (anticipating another area to be swollen tomorrow at some point). When his ankle was swollen last Wednesday, Ethan requested to go to bed at 7 PM, and asked for the first time if he will ever get better. Today marks 3 weeks since our first hospital visit. His labs came from today came back normal, and the doctor's office informed Tiffany he may only need to go for a blood test one more week, but we know the road still may be long.

We are so grateful for your prayers.  The disease can go away at any time, we just have to wait it out.  He is mobile and active, and we are grateful that has not changed. He went to school every day this week (Monday thru Thursday), so that is also a praise. Thank-you for continuing to pray for Ethan and for us. I will post something again next week.
