Hi everyone, it’s us! We couldn’t get into this site to update yesterday. Sunday evening Lawrence felt a terrible earache, which ended up giving him a slight fever and severe pain. Dr. Lisa took him to the 7th floor of the hospital to the ear specialists, and sure enough, he had some secretion in his ear. We stressed a little, because fever kills stem cells. They were able to give him some ointment, ear drops and antibiotic that would not hurt the stem cells. What a relief! His fever went down by the morning, yeah! Monday morning, we were told reatment would go as scheduled. Dr. Lisa checked his ear first thing in the morning and Dr. Tony had come in to see him later. No shower for Lawrence on Monday! I had asked the doctors for a ninth stem cell injection, since we were seeing results. They have approved it, so he will be getting one more!
Accupuncture and electric wave therapy went fine. Accupuncture was more painful yesterday, since Jason put two needles in his ear. In fact, excruciating pain. But, today, he feels much better! We have also purchased an electric wave therapy machine to take back with us. We will get it next week and Jason will teach me how to do this. I will be giving him this therapy at home, once a day, like it is done here.
He got his 5th stem cell treatment by IV at about 3:00 yesterday. Starving as usual after the treatment. He says his eyes itched a lot when we went to bed last night. Great sign! By the way, this morning he asked me if the lightning in China is brighter. It rained all night, and he says he could see the lightning coming in through the windows with the curtains closed. He had always seen lightning as a flash, similar to that of a camera. He said it looked brighter and fuller. I really don’t think lightning is brighter in China, it is those stem cells working.
Thanks for reading and please continue to keep us in your prayers. By the way, Emani has made a new friend from Ireland.
