Update

Luka had a doctor appointment yesterday. He is doing great! He no longer has to take medicine for high blood pressure and the protien in the urine is almost normal again. He next doctor appointment is in three weeks. The doctor said we are on schedule to go back to Uganda end of May. From there Luka will see the doctor every three months (most likely in Kenya). The doctor said the kidneys are a silent disease so there aren't any warning signs and that is why he will continue to see the doctor and have tests done. We are so thankful to see continued healing in Luka.

We are doing well. It is our second time in 9 years that we are home for Spring and we are enjoying it! It is beautiful. How fun to take walks, ride bike, play in the yard, go garage saleing :) ... amd all without being stared at (like we would be in Uganda). Josh student taught the other day and loved it. He hopes to have the opprotunity to do it again. Lydia loves school. Grace and Luka are my little shadows. We are thankful for everyday.

(I will try to get the whole Luka story on the blog this week!)

Praise God. When Luka was in nursery the other night it didn't seem possible that the little boy running from the slide to the basketball hoop was the same kid I'd been reading about on your blog. What a blessing to know that NOTHING is impossible with God!

We are so happy to hear that your little Luka is doing better. I cannot believe all that you guys have been through. God is so good. We hope to meet your little miracle some day. --Brett (& Sara) Nelson
