Status Remains The Same…

Alese's breathing has shown no improvement over the last 24 hours.

Her blood numbers have dropped due to chemotherapy and at this moment she’s neutropenic.

They’re giving her Nupogen with the hope that her numbers will recover quickly. If things progress in the right direction, she will receive another cycle in 10 days.

A Physical Therapist came up to see her today and they’re working on getting her moving again. At this point, even sitting on the edge of her bed is a grueling event, she’s very, very weak.

We’re both operating on very little sleep, one of us is with her constantly and we've been trading places every 48 hours. When we’re home, we resume our normal work schedules and life’s daily tasks. We’re both tired and request your prayers for strength.

Please continue to pray that Alese’s breathing will improve and that her dependency on oxygen will cease.

The Coco’s
