Today was a very bad day. Brian's diagnosis came in late afternoon and it's not good. He does have TTP (Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura) and will be receiving Plasmapheresis treatment until he is recovered. This can take up to 8 weeks, with another few months recovery after the platelet count is normal.
So, it looks like we're in for the long haul.
Prayer requests:
Peace for me and the kids. Somehow I have to tell them that Daddy isn't coming home anytime soon.
Financial help. We have such low income and no insurance or help in anyway.
Strength for me. This has been hard, to put it lightly.
That Brian recovers quickly.
I can't even think of anything more at the moment. I'll be taking it a day at a time right now...
Praise God for the concrete diagnosis, right? Thankfully they can treast this!!! I don't know what else to say... will he be in the hospital for the full 8 weeks? Do they know what caused this?

Praying for you this morning, Korinne - for peace and strength today. Does Brian's work not have disability insurance? What about government disability insurance - would that help?
