ER Visit #3 - 7/15/17
Hey all. Peter received his bleo treatment today, and by 7 pm was experiencing extreme chills, fatigue and had a fever of 100.7. Because his white blood counts were low we were sent to the ER and I'm so grateful we are here. He started vomiting, but thankfully we have it under control right now. I haven't heard for sure but I expect we will be admitted.
To put it in lighter terms, Peter broke his previous record for fastest admission to a room at the ER! 馃槉 I'm super thankful for that and the amazing care we get here. We even saw the amazing nurse who took care of us two weeks ago when it was super bad and we came in.
PRAY AGAINST INFECTION. And pray against any permanent damage to the rest of his body (except that cancer!). His blood counts are down to 1. Everything is under control, but this is still extremely important. I'm personally tired but feeling peace. Esther is in great hands, too. Thank you all. Knowing our army of friends is praying is such a great comfort.

Praying for healing in Jesus' name, and for calm and peace upon you both.
Praying in the name of Jesus. I'm so sorry.
Prayers going up for you guys. Xoxo.
Tori and Peter- this afternoon I was reading from my bible study The Daniel Prayer, the story of Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20. The armies of Amon, Moab and Seir were coming against the Israelites and the destruction of the Israelites looked certain. Jehoshaphat prayed and said "O God, will you execute judgment on them? For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you." vs. 12. God responded by routing the armies and causing the three warring armies to turn on themselves and kill each other. God said "You will not need to fight in this battle; stand firm, hold your position and see the salvation of the Lord on your behalf" vs. 17. My prayer for you tonight is that God would set an ambush on the cancer cells in your body so they would turn on each other and completely destroy each other, wiping out the cancer. The battle is the Lord's; He is fighting the battle for you. We are praying with you for complete healing!
I can't wait to see how God is going to use this situation and the great number of people it will impact for God's good. It is amazing how awesome you and your family are handling this and that is a testimony in itself. Continued prayers and love!
Amen Katrina!
Praying in agreement.
