Prayer Request
Please pray for Will. Last week, we got a call from the doctor's office saying that Will's white blood cell count is elevated, and has been for far too long. They've been keeping an eye on it for about a year and then some, and it's been elevated everytime he goes in for tests. The nurse told me that the level should have dropped with the anti-biotics they've given him, but it's not working. I asked her what may be causing it and she said it usually indicates an infection in the body. Miranda explained to me that we have five types of white blood cells and they all do something different, but basically, they rush to an infected area and begin to fight the infection. She said it may be because of the condition he has in his right leg. He has a condition which causes leg ulcers and open wounds and we never know when they will fester. The specialist he goes to for this condition says he will have that condition for life. Miranda said it may be that his white blood cells are just constantly fighting the infections? Anyway, we will be going to the specialist Monday morning. Thanks for your prayers.
