Faith Williams (works at Liberty National Bank) will have one last bag of Chemo today. This will be the last chemo until the stem cell transplant is given. Her husband asked the Dr.what target number they were shooting for when they look at her LDH numbers. He said 200, when this round of chemo began, it was nearly 7000, as of today it has come down to 1250. The doctor says the chemo will stay active weeks after it was administered.  So...as you can see the prayers are working.  Please continue to pray for Faith, her family and her Drs and nurses.

Lesa Bulls ask that we pray for Wendy Daugherty.  She is scheduled for a double mastectomy next Monday (6/25) at Baylor/Dallas.  She has a tumor that is aggressively growing.  Pray for her family (2 middle school children) and the Drs as they begin this process over the next few months.  She lives in Blossom and works as the in-school director for The Success Center.
