My God always comes through

All my dear friends,

I first want to apologize for taking so long to get back to all of you. The last few days in the hospital were really tough. But.... I am now out of UCSF! thank God!! It was so hard for Brian and I to be back in that place. Although we are thankful for all the help they have given us. In my last rejection in Dec. UCSF gave me 5 treatments of (OkT3) this time they gave me 7. It took a real toll on my body so the recovery has been a little harder. But I made it through. I've been out of the hospital for a few days and am beginning to feel a little better. I've lost all my weight again. I had finally made it up to 115 (I know that does not seem like much) but for me it was. Unfortunately I'm back down to 103 so I've got some weight to gain! The doctors are not sure what caused my liver to go into rejection once again, but it could be contributed to my youthfull immune system and stress..who knows? but we caught it in time. They have once again upped my medication but feel confident that my liver will be okay. Please continue to pray for a quick recovery. Thank you for your continued prayers.

We love you all

Bethani, Brian and Wyatt R.

Hospital Time

My dear friends,

Well, here we are once again in UCSF. My liver has gone into rejection and they are treating me with some very strong medication( OKT3) "made from mice!" to try and help. The medication has been working successfully so far, but It does take a toll on my body so please pray for my strength. Wyatt was able to come up yesterday to visit us for a couple of hours. It felt so good to hold him again. I have two treatments left so hopefully Mon. or Tue. we will be able to once again go home. Please continue to pray for us. The road that has been set before use seems tough but we know with the prayers of our friends and family God will see us through.

We love all of you so much
Bethani and Brian

Your Prayers Needed!

I talked with Bethani a few days ago. She has not had Internet access and has been unable to keep you posted. At that time she was doing okay.

Her sister just called to say that Bethani is requesting prayer because she is in another rejection. Your prayers are needed!

We will keep you posted.
