Aunt Opy—Update

A few of you have requested updates on Aunt Opy's health. This excerpt is from an email Erin received on Friday:

I had a bone marrow biopsy yesterday and will have a kidney biopsy next Friday. Bone marrow was done to help determine if my bone marrow can withstand another round of cytoxin chemotherapy. My blood counts for both red and white are both already low and the chemo would only knock them lower. Of course this chemo is the best treatment and it did work last time. Our van died and we had to purchase another one so we are dealing with that too. Would have cost $6000 it fix and it was only worth $2500 so we junked it. Lots going on now. Glad that God is in control because we would really be in trouble.
Talk to you soon. Love, Aunt Opy

Thanks to everyone for your prayers!!!
