Double digits baby! It's been 10 days since Maggie received the bone marrow transplant from her brother Lucas. There had been some down days, but yesterday was a day to relish. If you haven't read yesterday's update, click here

Probably the best thing about last night, was that Andy, Maggie's dad was down in Boston, and stayed in the room with her. That meant that mom, Lauren could have a good night's sleep. Now I don't know if you have ever tried to sleep in the hospital, but it's not easy. Whether you're the patient or not, there's lot of beeping noises, vital signs that have to be taken, you just don't sleep for more than 2 or 3 hours, and then there are those chairs that kind of fold out into a bed. There's nothing like a mattress after 9 days of being bedside :)

As you can see from the picture, Go Team Maggie signs continue to come in! Many thanks to WQCB Brand Manager J.R. Mitchell for asking Miranda Lambert to pose with a Go Team Maggie sign! We have over 90 photos of people throughout the country in support of Team Maggie. You can see them all HERE and also upload yours if you haven’t yet.

Please keep praying. Pray for a peaceful Saturday. Pray for a sense of calmness for Maggie, Lauren and the entire Rudnicki family. Pray that those white blood cells continue to grow, and grow quickly!  Pray for healing.

You can make a donation to help defray the medical and travel costs associated with Maggie’s care. Maggie has been down in Boston for 3 weeks. I know there are family going down this weekend to help Lauren and Maggie, but let’s face it, gas is expensive. If you want to make a donation, click HEREfor the details
