Exciting and Interesting News - Update Day 3 Chemo

Kortney saw her Doctors last night and got some interesting news. She does not have CML nor ALL!! However, she does have a kind of cancer that has never before been seen, named, treated, etc. Good news is that the chromosome that holds this cancer reacts positively to the type of chemotherapy Kortney is receiving. The Doctor said Kortney's treatment and outcome of this cancer will be a first of it's kind. God is working things out for Kortney!!!!

Update regarding Kortney's health today: blood work looks good, her blood cell count is almost normal but she needed and received a blood transfusion today, her lymph nodes and spleen are almost back to normal size, yet Kortney is achy, fatigued, and fighting nausea from all the chemo, transfusion, and other medication she is taking.

Kortney and her parents have specific prayer requests for your consideration. Please continue to pray for a complete and miraculous healing. Also, please pray that Kortney's siblings' immune systems will be a healthy match for her necessary bone marrow transplant after the chemo treatment is completed.

Let's keep praying for the family and be sure to leave encouraging thoughts here in the comment section. They apprectiate your love and prayers.

    We are praying for you constantly, and we're believing God for your complete healing and restoration.

    The LORD has woke me up in the middle of the night the last couple of nights, and as I pray I see this cancer shirinking up and disappearing.

    It is interesting to read that the cancer was first believed to be CML and then it became ALL and now it is something that has never been seen before.
    Really what I believe is happening is just what God has shown me; that is that it was CML... then it became ALL... and now, All is is "ALL gone".

    So, now it has mutated into some type of cancer that the doctors say has never been seen before; but it is, in reality, becoming a cancer that will never be seen again!

    It is disappearing and that is going to be a testamony for you... that testamoney is going to become a platform to witness to those that will listen to you so that you can lead them to Jesus.

    You are an awesome child of the Most High God, Kortney. Keep your faith, imgaine your healing (see yourself healed) and then speak it into existence... and then you will be in a position to recieve the healing that God has for you.

    The sermon today ended with this Scrpiture.
    John 1:14... "and the Word became flesh". I.e. what we speak will manifest in this present world.

    Kortney... I see you healed, back to work, and on fire for the LORD... I speak that truth and activate my faith to believe that you will receive a miracle in your body, soul and spirit in due season.

    We love you!
    We are proud of you!!

    I am so excited to see what God is doing in you and your family.

    Thank you for texting me that the doctors cannot find a visible cancer cell as of today...10/28/09.

    I would say that I was pleasantly surprised, except that I know what God has showed me that He is going to do for you. Praise God for His healing virtue!

    We love you so much... and we miss you here at work.

    I am going to begin to pray that the doctors decide that you do not have to go through the treatment.

    Love you much

    John and Cindy
