For those of you who don't know, my husband is Eric. He is the love of my life. We met in 1998 through a family friend and my heart was his forevermore. We married July 21st, 2005.
Eric had full intention of joining the Marines upon high school graduation. However, he failed his medical test which led him to find out he has a kidney disease, called Glomerulonephritis. It went into remission in 2002 and we discovered it was back in January 2008. He has tried taking two different kinds of blood pressure pills to help reduce the amount of protein leaking into the urine, but they have not worked. Eric goes in tomorrow to discuss the latest results of testing with his doctor. If there has been no change the doctor and him will decide on whether Eric will go on a Chemo drug or a Stereoid. There are definite cons to both, so we are not thrilled to have to choose either, but the most important thing right now is to protect Eric's kidneys. Both medicines will lower his immune system which is not a good thing with him being a teacher.
Please join with me in praying for Eric and for healing on his kidneys. Pray that he will go back into remission.
Thank you!
