6 Months and Counting

We are continuing to celebrate Ethan's good health, he has now made it just over 6 months off all his medications. This is a huge milestone as he relapsed last year after 5 months of being off his meds. The longest he has ever made it off is 14 months, we are pushing forward towards our new goal of one year. Hoping and praying that this is the end of Ethan's journey with Nephrotic Syndrome, but if it is not, we are so thankful to have been given this precious gift. School has been going very well for Ethan, he still does not enjoy going, but at least he feels so much better, which is half the battle. I can now wave goodbye and he will smile and wave back instead of crying and begging me to take him home. One verse that I have been reading over and over again is James 1:12 Blessed is the man who preserves under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
