Alan's birthday/ My appointment

Hello People,

well today I had an apppointment with my specialist. I had bloods but will need to get the results on Friday. It is a private practice and hospital and I had some hiccups along the way today and got my bloods done too late...hehe.

I woke up this morning with a sore mouth and throat and looked into my mouth and there are white yucky stuff....oh dear...oral fungal infection. Doctor confirmed this and so I am taking acidophilus and Nilstat...anti fungal (which I was already on). However, the antibiotics I had with IV and oral have been so strong and my system weak so it was bound to happen. The infection is gone. There is just a little bit of fluid still on the lung and I am SO exhausted still! I hate this lack of energy. Today it made me feel so sick that I threw up my breakfast! That was horrible. And then I said, "Happy Birthday Alan" sometime after the event. I felt so bad throwing up on his birthday.

Anyway, so I wanted to tell you all that it is Alan's birthday today...the 5th September and he is 30 years old! It has been heaps hard on the family with the sickness and I wanted Alan to feel special....SO I was wondering if some people could send him a birthday message to his email.

This is his email:

alan@fanconi.org.au


So please leave him a message if you have the time. You are great with leaving messages for me and I thank you for that.

I also want to honour my brother, Shannon, who had FA and died in 1994, October. It was his birthday on the 1st September and if he was alive...he would have been 27 years old. I miss him heaps.

Thanks for checking up on me guys. I will update with results when I get them.
Love Charisse
Happy Birthday Alan!!!!!

Happy birthday, Alan.
Because of Christ we can boldly bring our petitions to the very throne of God! Praying on your behalf right now!
Hebrews 10:19-22 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; And having an high priest over the house of God; Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

Happy birthday Alan! And Charisse's brother, too. I'm so glad your lungs are clearing up. I hope you can get rid of the yeast infection quickly! Do you have some wonderful music to listen to while you are resting? Maybe that would make the exhaustion a little more tolerable....if you could be enjoying something you don't usually have time to relax and enjoy.

take care,
rachel
