Welcome Friends and Family


I do want to start by saying thank you! I know your support and prayers have given me the strength I need. We are all very grateful to have so many people praying for us everyday! I know at first everyone was calling and wanting to know what happened? The problem was we still didn't understand what had happened. It all happened so fast. So...I do apologize for not communicating but, it was very difficult for me. It seemed the only time I knew what was going on was when I was explaining it to someone and it was like the nightmare kept repeating over and over as I would explain it. Then we began to have many people ask us what we needed. The problem with that was we did not know what we needed. I know my answer usually was prayers and that is something we can always use. I tried to email friends but, even that was hard. For those of you that know me I am blind without my glasses, and crying plus typing at the same time is practically impossible. So I hope this page can keep everyone stay informed and updated. Thank you for all your support, prayers, cards, and gifts. Soren was very happy with all his new fun toys, this really helps him stay busy playing all day. It is very comforting knowing that so many people are there for us!

What's New in the Jacobsen Household!

We are still waiting for Soren's counts to go up so he can move on to the next phase. His ANC counts are still very low which means he is unable to fight off anything. So he is still isolated. I know this blog is used to keep everyone updated on Soren's health. But since everyone is so faithfully praying for him I thought I add another request to your prayers. This week I started to have contractions and had to be taken in to the hospital. They were able to monitor the baby and she is fine. I was given a shot to stop the contractions and two shots to help develop her lungs if she comes early. I am now on bed rest! So please pray that she waits it out and that I don't go crazy. Thankfully my mom was here to stay with Soren while we were at the hospital that just amazes me how my mom always happens to be here when we need her. She usually comes up every Thursday to watch Soren for us while we both work on Friday. But, it just so happened she came early and went with us to his clinic appt. Then she stayed here with us even on her birthday to help us out. So just continue to pray for all of us as we deal with another obstacle.
