AJ was on Andrew's baseball team last Spring. Just after practices began, AJ got sick and then was diagnosed with aplastic anemia. He was unable to play for fear that any injury could cause unstoppable bleeding. He had a bone marrow transplant this summer. He has done very well so far, but is running a fever for the first time today. He is still on immunosuppressant drugs. He cannot go to school or anywhere with large groups of people because of the risk of infection, so this is obviously not a good sign.
Andrew has followed AJ's story on his blog. It has been sweet to watch Andrew care & pray for his friend. AJ went to Vanderbilt Children's hospital, which was where Andrew was, but in Andrew's words, "What AJ has is much worse!" This young man has been a trooper in very difficult circumstances. He and his family could use your prayers tonight & tomorrow as they likely head back to Vanderbilt. Thank you for your prayers!
