James will not have a biopsy after all. The doctors say that since he has had no fever and his white cell counts came down to the normal range today and that he is showing overall improvement, the test will not be required. After his wounds heal from the plastic surgery, the doctors will stop the antibiotics and see how James responds. This may be a couple weeks from now, but please pray that his body will continue to heal and that these antibiotics will accomplish everything that they are intended to do and will not be required any longer. The drugs are very, very strong and have always had a potential of side affects. Thankfully, because of the Lord's grace and mercy, James has not shown to have any side affects at all! Even so, the sooner he gets off them, the better. As you can imagine, James is very excited about this news. Praise God for His grace and His mercy and please continue to pray with thanksgiving.
Psalm 116:5, "Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; our God is merciful."

...shall we indeed accept good from God and shall we not accept adversity? In all this Job did not sin with his lips (Job 2:10b)
We thank you, James and Cathy for honoring God and for being such a great example and inspiration to us all through this time. Cathy, we also thank you for not taking on the role of Job's wife! We love you, the Esterlines
