All good news so far and still waiting for the big news.

Many people still keep up with Granton's progress but we normally do not have any new news.  However, he did have a check-up over spring break and we did learn a little.  First of all, they have not found anything bad.  His height, weight, heart rate and oxygen saturation level are all fine.  The main thing that we have been waiting of for the last year is his doner B cells.  We found out that he does have the right precentage of B cells but we are waiting on the test results to see if the B cells are his or the doners.  We need them to be the donors because those are the ones that do what they are suppost to.  If they are the donor's, we will start the process of weening him off his IVIG.  This has been my prayer for a while as it will be a compleatly functioning imune system.  Granton will be happy with this for another reason because he does not like geeting his weekly two hour shot.  If the B cells are Granton's, we have to go to Seattle this summer for another test.  Please pray for good news on the rusults.  What a blessing a compleate immune system would be.  Thank you so much for being faithful in praying for our boy.
