MRSA

It's MRSA that is growing in Mike's lungs. The word fight takes on a whole new meaning. Mike is so brave and he puts things into perspective. The doctors are trying a different medicine to fight the MRSA and we are praying he will be MRSA free after this fight. He is thankful that he still has the option of transplant, despite this news. He is planning to stay inpatient for most or all of this hospitalization. FEV1 is at 26%.

Please keep Mike and our family in your prayers. He will have to fight even harder on this one. He will be on Vancomycin and it runs 4 times a day at 3 hours each. This will be on top of Cipro and Zosyn. Each one of those will run 2 times a day for an hour each. Of course, this is in addition to the insulin and all other CF meds and treatments. Our church is having prayers for him this weekend. He will need strength, patience, and perseverance. I am so blessed that he has such a strong character. I love you Mike, fight, fight, fight.

James 1:12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

Blessings to you!

Congratulations to Jeremy! I have a brother-in-law in the State Assembly.
