Update

Just a quick update to all who are praying. We are in San Francisco, at UCSF. Candice is doing much better. She was moved out of the ICU today, into a regular room. Her liver function labs are going down, which is the right direction. Her kidneys have kicked in and are producing adequate amounts of urine now, but the lab values are not going down, as they should. (I won't go into detail for those of you who are not in the medical field...:) ) The doctors are more than hopeful, they are pretty sure that her kidneys will eventually heal, although she may have to go on dialysis for a little while. They do not need to do that quite yet, but they are keeping a close eye on her labs. If she does need to go on dialysis, it should only be short term.

Neither the liver doctors, nor the kidney doctors can say what has caused this. They say only an extreme infection, a blot clot, or something congenital will usually cause the liver enzymes to go as high as hers did. They have run all kinds of tests, but cannot find a cause....

We all want to thank everyone for praying, and ask that you please continue praying. She is better, but not "out of the woods".

Our God is AWESOME, and we know that He is in control!!
