First of all thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers over the last year. We have decided to create a blog to have an outlet for anyone who is interested in updates on Lances condition a place to come and be informed. The title of the blog "A future and a hope" comes from Jeremiah 29:11, which is a verse that has given our family alot of comfort through these challenging times. Because as my Dad has said, no matter what happens we have already won! I would encourage you to pass on the location of this site to anyone that you may believe would be interested in updates. -Justin

Day 23

Day 23 in captivity!! " Let me be held captive by God.... Not by circumstances." I wrote that in my journal a few weeks before we got here and it has proven to be so true! We have joked about being held captive but truly we feel that God has been here with us through this whole thing, and being held by Him is not a bad thing!! We are not being held here by the hospital, doctors, nurses, or even the disease .....BUT GOD. He is in control.... How deep the Fathers love for us.....

Doctor is predicting Lance will get to go home Monday or Tuesday, the nurses came in this morning and thought it might be sooner but he still has four pumps hooked up so we'll see. Eating is still kind of a problem but hopefully will get better each day. As of right now Lance is the veteran on the floor! Our friend Theresa who we have been praying for had been here four days longer than Lance and she got to go home today! Praying for her and her husband and there two little boys. Lance's white count continues to drop a little each day but that is to be expected since he isn't getting those shots anymore for now. Well tonight was BINGO night, didn't win but it helped pass time and it is so much fun to watch the lady who does it. All in all a good day! Thank you for all your prayers!! ---Penny
