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

Unexpected Trip

Unexpected trip to Iowa City today, spent the day having test... getting an IV, then several prescriptions.... not what we were hoping for....Lance had a pretty bad week, up all night coughing (so has had to sleep sitting up in the recliner) and itching from rashes... GVH is much worse sooooo, back on steroids and full dose of anti- rejection drug plus the extra meds to help him get over all the problems the GVH has caused. On the bright side the big dose of IV steroids should give a boost in his energy level!! We would appreciate prayer that all this gets resolved soon, not only so he feels better but so that Doctors can get back to the plan.... but we take comfort in realizing our God is the one really in control and we trust he has the best plan of all for us... Thank you for praying..OH!, Also please pray specifically that Lance can sleep in our bed instead of the recliner.. I MISS HIM!! --Penny
