update on Olivia


I am sorry it has taken me so long to update; we have been very busy. Here is what is happening with Olivia (this is a quote from Lucy): "Dr. Yang says Olivia physically looks good. She's growing and healthy, and other than the one kidney infection she's not concerned. There could be a couple different causes for the kidney dilation, none of which could be accurately diagnosed at Livy's young age, so we're going to wait until December to have another ultrasound done. At that time we'll see if she still has dilation (80% of these cases clear up on their own by the time the child is 2). The results of that ultrasound will dictate whether we need to do an ultrasound with dye in her bladder to see how the urine is flowing up into her kidney. If Olivia gets another kidney infection we may do the dye test sooner. All in all the end result of the appointment is that we're not sure exactly what is causing the dilation, but because Livy's healthy we shouldn't worry." In talking to Lucy and Jeremy after the appointment, the very worst case scenario (depending on the results of the ultrasound in December) is the removal of Livy's left kidney. But before they did that they would put a stent in the area of the ureter leaving the kidney to open the ureter and stop the backing up of urine into the kidney. So, the Koury family is (once again) playing the waiting game! We are becoming pros at that!! *sigh*  Lucy said it's vague news with positive undertones, so we'll take it! 

Again, sorry it took me so long to update. Thanks for the prayers for the whole Koury family, we really need them!! God bless you all! We love you.

  1. How i survived lungs cancer.
    I was diagnosed of lung cancer in 2011 and the doctor (oncologist), because i was a chronic smoker who started smoking from 16 and told me i had just two years to live that my lungs had been damaged, that even on the best medication i still had two years. I needed help because i was scared to die and i did chemotherapy, radiotherapy and it was unable to treat or help me. I coughed nearly every minute. In my death clock counting just 6 months remaining, if you knew me then i was good as dead because the cancer had eaten me up. My wife was fortunate enough to contact doctor Amber, a herbal doctor who came and treated me in our house using his medicine and that is how i was saved (where western medicine and methods failed), that was the greatest decision my wife had taken aside marrying me. Today i am totally fine without any symptoms of cancer, it was all confirmed by my oncologist that i am clean. Do not die in silence or rely only on western medicine herbal medicine is very effective. You can contact the doctor on (drambermurray@gmail.com) for more information about his treatment.
