MARCH 3, 2006; Update on Hawk's condition for the week of 2/26-3/3/06.
Hawk had an appointment with Dr. K at Vandy on Monday, Feb. 27, 2006. This was just a routine checkup. All his blood work ups were good. He had gained over a pound since the Dr.'s appointment the previous week. He now weighs over 41 pounds. This is such a big change since the radiation treatments and steroids started in mid December, when he weighed only 32 pounds. The great news is that Dr. K reduced the steroids again to only a half mg a day. He does not have as big an appetite as before so maybe he will start to loss some of the weight.
The great news is that he has a smile all day and the energy to do what he wants to do, which is the most important thing.
The Lord has Blessed us with a very good period. Our prayers continue for a miracle that the tumor be removed, if is His Will. Please keep Hawk and all the Smith and McPeak families in your prayers.
It is encouraging to get comments back from the prayer warriors praying for Hawk and following his condition via the blog. On the 2/15/06 update, there are 5 comments. Three of them are from complete strangers that we have never met but who are praying for Hawk. They pass along their comments of encouragement of the miracle of prayer and how they are praying for Hawk. Via one of these comments, we now know that Hawk is being prayed for in Canada. This makes 4 countries that we are aware of that have people praying for him. Praise the Lord for His faithful followers, for their belief and their Love.
I will have a lot to report next week. There are many activities planned for Hawk's New Home in the next few days. The update will be in the blog for Hawk's New Home. Please be sure to link to the site next weekend.
