Mercy's Progress on Propranalol
We have been seriously busy with the plague the past week or so, but yesterday we had a moment to breathe and noticed that MERCY'S HEMANGIOMA LOOKS GREAT! This is amazing since she only had 9 doses (3 days) then we needed to stop them due to her getting rotovirus at the hospital. BUT THE HEMANGIOMA CONTINUES TO CHANGE FOR THE BETTER!!! Here are photos from March 3 - the day before we started the propranalol.

That is SO exciting! We are praying for little Mercy continually. William had a hemangioma on his chest, but it ended up going away.
ReplyDeleteSo glad things are working out for you!
Carri -- wonderful, speedy results! I am thrilled for you! Praise the Lord. What a precious child you have, friend... and she has a precious Mama. Love, Anne
ReplyDeleteWow! That is amazing! We will keep praying (and for you all to get over the plague!) Lisa~

One of your avid blog followers in CA. I just had to post a comment on this.

I found your blog about a week ago and have been catching up on Mercy's story.
ReplyDeleteMy son was born just over 2 years ago with liver disease and has since had a transplant, so I am familiar with the 'medical world'. (More than I ever thought I would be!) (Interestingly, he had a small (just a bit larger than a quarter) hemangioma on the very top of his head.)
All that to say, I think Mercy is beautiful, and so is her story. The way God worked through the insurance company was amazing! Isn't He good? :) Also amazing are these pictures of the improvements she has made on the treatment so far. We will be praying that everyone can get (and stay!) well so the treatments can continue.
Carri,
ReplyDeleteThat is AWESOME!!!! It looks so improved in such a short time! PTL!!!!
That is amazing!!!!! May God continue to bless Mercy with the Propanol. And may everyone get better soon too. Those yucky plagues....ick!
ReplyDeleteWow! How exciting!
ReplyDeletePraise God for Propranalol!
I CAN imagine how happy you all are! This is fantastic news! Praise God and we will be praying for the healing to continue!
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a difference! I am so sorry I haven't checked on your blog in a while to pray for the nasty virus too! Praying for you all now! Bless ya!
ReplyDeleteLookin' good! So glad you guys are recovering from the plague.
ReplyDeleteJust came by to visit again. I know I already wrote in but that really is amazing! I had to show my daughter Mercy's improvement in just that short time.

This looks like such a rapid improvement! I have had cavernous hemangenomas my whole life. Luckily they didn't encroach into any major systems so I have been able to live with it. But I have more and more pain from them. Do you mind emailing me so I can get some advice? I had embolizations and they were quite painful. That was 4 years ago. Now I need to finish and I was wondering what else was out there. Thanks in Advance, Jackie
