Journal entry by Julie Roberts —
Quick update. Kidney function stable since last check. We still anticipate a transplant in the next 10 years?!! It’s so difficult to say, and only God knows the plans He has for Jacob. He has never let go of Jacob and our faith is strong.
We do ask for prayers for Jacob as this has been very difficult on him mentally since he is so young. It has been a struggle for all of us, but Jacob has obviously taken on the most stress.
Please also pray that he remains healthy. I had Covid earlier in November and now Matt has it. We have done all we can to keep Jacob healthy by isolating at Steve’s house, however, he did develop pinkeye, which infections are always a concern to his retinas and eyesight. Prayers that he recovers from it soon. The last time he had pinkeye he was in first grade!!! Cold and flu season are upon us.
Thank you for all the prayers. We really do appreciate more then you will ever know.
