To all you who have been praying for Ethan and his family...I have amazing news!!!Yesterday, he received his first dose of chemo and the doctors painted a very grim picture for survival. My nephew fell on his face before God and cried and prayed for about 45 minutes. During that time, Ethan's oncologist came in and called him. She said that his white blood cell count had dropped from an extremely dangerous 65,000 to an almost normal 11,000, his platelet count was rising(a good thing), and his extremely enlarged liver and spleen were almost back to their normal size. The doctor said it is magic, but we know a miracle when we see one!!!!Praise God and please keep those prayers coming. In His name....Thank you so much
Thank almighty God! Great news! All the best!
You really want this crusty old bean counter to cry, don't you. Praise God.
Best from Houston and all over FreeRepublic...
Blessings on Ethan and his family. May God watch over them and help to heal.
Our family is going through a similar situation. My mother has just been diagnosed with liver cancer & the doctors are sure that isn't the "primary source". The doctors told us that mom is terminal and have sent her home since there is nothing they can do. Mom has given up and just wants to go in peace.
I hope that the news for Ethan is much better than our news. Gods love and blessings on all.
Praise God!That is wonderful news.
My prayers are with your Mother and your family.

My sincere prayers to you and your family...may God bless your mother.
Thank God!!
And thank you for the update, I've been praying for Ethan every night and wondering how he is doing. God love him.
Praise God!
Please know that you have people all over the coutry praying. (even in Wisconsin). God works in mysterious ways. He also listens to prayer. Sometimes, he even changes his mind and decides to wait a while before he calls his people home. I believe today he has listened and decided to wait. God bless. We will continue our prayers.
Wow. No matter how many times God works miracles, it still seems like a miracle. Prayers to Jesus for a full recovery.
Sending more.
