I was just thinking that we hadn't heard from you a couple of days ago.

Father, asking for Your help and healing and everything that You know is best for brooklynsblessed1. In Jesus name we ask. Amen

Dear Friends,

Will update this prayer request soon but this morning I am beginning a new weekly blood draw; Wed. must see my primary; & Thu. our 90 day evaluation meeting w/ the MT. SINAI LIVER TRANSPLANT TEAM.

I have an excess of iron around my liver & heart.

Hence this morning after I see my Hematologist at St. Lukes-Roosevelt Hospital in Manhattan we will begin weekly drawing blood to reduce that iron load.

This process has worked for some in about 7-8 weeks, or could take months-a year.

Because I am vulnerable to anemia they will half the amount drawn.

But, I am believing that in about 8 weeks I will be reporting that the iron is gone...& at most may need a small draw every few months.

As some know I am tentatively planning on a move soon to Pensacola, Fla. to be w/ family..this will likely delay that.

Please lift up those prayers.

GOD BLESS!

Dear Friends,

I've spent Tues. & Wed. @ Roosevelt Hospital in Manhattan as an outpatient:

Tues. began the 1st of weekly blood draws to remove dangerous iron from around my heart & liver.

Wed.-I saw my PCP & she basically went over my recent labs, & thank God most areas are normal or improved as far as my HIV & Hep B being undetectable now.

TODAY- Must complete a 90 day evaluation period being done by the MT. SINAI LIVER TRANSPLANT TEAM. At last report my MELD was 13...very low. 40 being the danger area/when you'd need a transplant.
Mt. Sinai on Manhattan's upper east side is not my regular treaters but are serving as back-up in the event my liver condition/cirroshis worsens.


I am no longer allowed to take the only 2 treatments involving inteferon shots, the last time daily.

Please pray for healing of my liver & immune system;as I must try & heal w/out liver medications.

JESUS IS THE GREAT PHYSICIAN!

He's worked many miracles in my life, I'm praying for more in the area of healing.

3 More Wks Of Blood Draws???? - 4/30/2009 1:25:02 PM

Dear CW Friends,

Will be @ Roosevelt Hospital Outpatient today @ 3pm..for therapeutic plebotomy...for the past 6 weeks they have drawn a 1/2 pint of blood to reduce an excess of iron around my heart & liver.

Most patients have a pint drawn but I am prone to anemia hence 1/2 the amount....the whole process can take up to a year..but PRAISE GOD my ferratin went from over 5000 to 357 last month/a big drop; & they ordered 3 more blood draws hoping it would fall below the 50 range......

I still need healing of my liver, immune system & platelets.

Please pray that my ferratin will plunge below 50, as it'll be 1 more thing that I won't have to worry about as I plan a possible move to Pensacola by Thanksgiving.

If it falls that much, I may only need a draw once every 3 months or so as follow-up.

THANKS FOR THE PRAYERS!

Rick

Am off today for another blood draw for the excess iron around my heart & liver---I forgot on last post that it has dropped to as low as 200+, the ferratin that is.

I will be on the plebotomists's bed @ around 3:30...it can, but hasn't made me weak or wobbly.

Please pray that my Hemaglobin will go up & my ferratin drop BELOW 50----that would end the weekly draws & put me on a maybe simply every few months of a small blood draw.

PRAISE GOD-HE'S BROUGHT ME THROUGH SO MUCH!


~~~JESUS IS THE GREAT PHYSICIAN!

FOLKS A QUICK UPDATE AS I'M GOING FOR A BLOOD DRAW, BLOOD TEST & TO TAKE A PREDICATE PRISONER FRIEND TO A MOVIE:

This may be my last drawing of blood & they'll take a test today & I'll see my Hematologist on Wed. The drop in my ferratin is substantial but because I'm prone to anemia I only give a 1/2 pt. vs. a full pint for regular patients.

Please pray that it's gone down below 50...or very close & then I can go every few months for a small blood draw as maintainance.

No matter what the finding is I'm either at the goal, or very close..JESUS IS THE GREATEST PHYSICIAN!

PRAISE GOD- JESUS IS THE GREAT PHYSICIAN:

Thanks for the prayers my ferratin has now dropped to a little over 100............so now instead of the hospital drawing blood every week..it's down to every 2 weeks w/ the expectation treatment will end soon.

We need to get below 50 & then I'll go every few months or so.

Am seeing my liver specialist this afternoon & looking forward to more good results.

Will update later.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

Thanks for all of the prayers ongoing.

As someone w/ Hep C & Cirroshis I am headed today to Roosevelt Hospital In Manhattan for an ultrasound of my liver/gall bladder area to screen for cancer.

I have no signs but this is a yearly tradition.

I can no longer take the daily self injections of Pegasys as the meds work fine & my hep c plunges to undetectable usually w/ in the 1st month but then after a year & treatment ending it goes back up after a few months; there were also other complications.

I am seeing also Mt. Sinai Hospital's liver transplant team, one of the best in the country and have a low MELD of 13 so Praise God I don't even qualify to be on a transplant list...prayerfully it'll stay like that for along time but as w/ every patient one can progress slowly or very fast.

I pray that my liver w/ out meds will get better & that there will be no need for any liver transplant for a great many years.

I also pray that they will come up w/ better meds for all suffering from liver illness as there are only a couple of treatments & side-effects can be very harsh for some.

Unfortunately though in this bad economy my liver specialist says that they are not finding the research dollars that are needed.

God is a good God though...& he offers healing through His stripes.
