I met Shelsi at Cedars Sinai today for
her follow up appointment with
Dr. Lill. She looks great! Her color looks healthy and other than
still being very skinny, (lucky girl;-) she definitely looks like
she's on the road to perfect health. Her hair continues to
grow...slower than before, but at least it is growing, which they
weren't sure it would at all.
Dr. Lill said her blood work looks fabulous!
We weren't sure how it
would be after her bout with shingles, which took a lot out of
her.
Other than the raw new skin where the scabs are coming off, she's
not
in pain anymore. WHEW! Dr. Lill also said he wants to continue
to
follow up with her every six weeks and get more imaging scans
in
January. He also reminded us that around two years will be the
mark
where we can all breath much easier...so keep praying.
Book sales have been great! Thank you!
We are about 10 books away
from breaking even [actually, as of this posting we have
broken even -- editor] after which the full $18 will go to Shelsi
and Eric. About 40 books remain so if you haven't ordered one
- there's still time.
I've copied one response to the book below,
(I hope you don't mind Pam:-)
Again - they are only $18.00* each.
I've also included a couple of pictures
from a family "girls
gathering". My nieces Bobbie, Lindy and Heather from Utah
were here
for the "cancelled" celebration..too late to change
their air
reservations, so we went for a visit anyway. We will be rescheduling
it once Kira has her baby...hopefully toward the middle or end
of
September.
Much Love
Sheri

I just finished the book and must say that reading this out by
the
pool was a good and a bad idea. Good idea in that the tears could
be
disguised as sweat...but bad since I had to use my beach towel
as a
tissue!
Never have I been so inspired and never have I been so ashamed
at EVER
feeling sorry for myself....
I love you all so much. Thank you Sheri for sharing this story
with
us. This story really needs to be heard around the world. I will
pray
that this message will be put in the right hands to do that.
Love
Pam
