Eli has had better weeks. He simply wasn’t himself and his stomach didn’t agree with anything he ate this week as it all came out each time he tried eating. Eli’s weight is now once again a serious issue and it’s possible if this doesn’t get better over the weekend that he will need to get back on TPN as he has no ounces he can possibly lose anymore. ‎

Eli got a blood transfusion on Tuesday which gave him more energy but that didn’t last very long as Wed he was pretty weak again. BH todays labs were ok and his counts are stable. Today we were in CHLA for a few minutes to get the MIBG injection. Friday morning IYH we will be back at CHLA for a CT and MIBG scan. These scans on Friday are extremely important as it will give us a better idea of what’s going on and what treatments Eli should get next. It’s a long 2 hour scan that Eli needs to not move so that they can get clear pictures. We hope to have results on Friday but not for sure.

Please keep Elimelech Ben Basya and all cholim in your tefilos.

I think of you all the time and continue to pray Eli will get better and better. I was so sad to read about the hard week he has gone through and will pray today that the tests will go well. Thank you for your continuous sharing. Shabbat shalom to you all and especially to Eli.

Special Announcement

For the last few months a group of our close friends have been arranging to join Chai Lifelines marathon taking place in Florida on 2/2/14. They have already 12+ people just on the “team Eli” group along the many others that run for Chai Lifeline. To do so every runner goes through MONTHS of rigorous training which they have all began doing already. This is one of the bigger fundraisers for Chai Lifeline who anyone who has ever needed their services knows how vital they are when a family member is going through a illness. And for those who BH haven’t had a sick family member and beezrat hashem will never have should know that they are simply a lifeline. Always there and always thinking about what they can do to take their chesed to the next level.

Our family will forever be makir tov to them for what they have done for us and continue to do. Every runner that signs up is essentially pledging $3600 to join the CL team. Aside from the training they do they must also raise the $$. On the link below there is a team Eli page which shows how much together the team has raised but you can click on each persons name and donate directly to their pledge. We beezrat hashem hope as a family to be there together with Eli who will be pushed in a wheelchair/stroller by one of the runners during the marathon

I look at this as a insurance plan that hopefully your donation should chas vshalom never be used towards your family or anyone you know but for us its the ultimate lifeline. Again I ask that anyone that can should please donate whatever they can “every dollar counts”. If you can donate $5 great if you can do more even better. If you can fully sponsor a runner would be amazing. There is also nothing wrong with a runner more then fulfilling their pledges for this great and worthy cause.

Anyone wishing to join the team should please email Ayalaback@gmail.com and anyone wishing to donate should please go to this link: http://www.teamlifeline.org/myteam.php?myid=88.

All I can say simply is “tizku lmitzvos”
