VISIT THAT SITE!!!! They make money for the traffic received, all to pay for her medical care! She and her husband are both teachers.



Lauren, how do you know them?!? They went to the same college I did. A mutual friend knows them. I've been on that site frequently this past week. Small world. EDIT- Just noticed your location. Wondering if you are at my alma mater....

Jenni has now been at Duke Medical Center for eight days. We don't have too much information on exactly what has been happening with her health, but we do know that things went downhill fast the first weekend of March and have pretty much stabilized since we arrived. We do know the following:


She has graft vs. host disease in her eyes and mouth (not the primary concern, but frustrating for her).
She has fluid in her lungs, and a bronchoscopy showed evidence that there had been bleeding in the lungs as well (DAH). They are treating the fluid with lasix (which will also help her kidneys, from what I understand) and the rest with steroids.
She has CMV, which appears to be the main thing affecting her lungs.

She has TTP (thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura), which is what the focus of the treatments have been on. They're treating this with plasmapheresis. The doctors seem to think that this is the driving factor behind the other issues.

Her blood sugar is bouncing all over the place. This morning it was 96 (normal range) but it has been as high as 500+. They have a bag of IV insulin running at all times.
She has extreme joint pain in her legs that no one seems to understand, but that they have treated with diloted (hope I spelled that correctly). It might be because of the increased steroids, but it might also be due to fluid buildup from her poor kidney functions.
In any case, there are so many things going wrong right now that I have probably forgotten something, so please forgive me if I have. I'm beginning this project to help fund Jenni's caregivers (short term goal) and cover any other medical expenses that arise due to her current condition (long term goal). On this site, you'll mainly find updates on Jenni's condition, but you may also see the occasional post about Adsense or my goal of making money online while Jenni is out on disability and I'm missing so much work.

Hopefully we'll be able to generate enough traffic to help pay the bills. Notice the emphasis on traffic. Although there is an option to donate at the bottom of the page, all you need to do is visit the page to help us out financially (thanks to Adsense). Thanks for everyone's support and prayers!

More info from the blog as of March 17, 2009...


Your traffic generated $218 yesterday ($1242 since we started this). Coupled with the extremely generous donations, I haven't stressed over money the way I might have without this resource and your generosity.

Third, you would not believe the cool stuff you can do with Google Analytics when you're stuck in a waiting room just itching to do something to get your mind off of everything that is going on. I added the Google Analytics html to Jenni's blog Sunday night and yesterday I found these facts that you might find interesting. I certainly did. On Monday...


- the site received 1,235 visits.
- each visitor stayed an average of 4 minutes and 16 seconds and visited 2.97 pages before moving on.
- most of the people who followed a link to the site, followed it through www.facebook.com.
- the site received visitors from 30 states (84% from NC but quite a few from Georgia, New York, Texas, South Carolina, California, and Florida as well... no more than 6 from any other state)
- the site received visitors from Spain, Finland, Brazil, Switzerland, Latvia, and Canada

Update from Thursday from my friend Tiffany, who is friends with Jenni...


One of my friends I went to Poland with on a mission trip six years ago is in the hospital. Jenni got sick on our trip and has not been well ever since, but this time things look really bleak. The doctor said the next 36 hours are crucial. They are out of treatment options, and her lungs continue to bleed.

Thanks for helping to get the word out. I'm sure the medical bills are going to be riduculous and every little bit will help. I know several churches in my area have added them to their prayer lists.

Please go visit.
Your website traffic helps them to pay for medical expenses.
Jenni is not doing well again today. :brokenheart:

Just a few moments after 9:00 Jenni passed. She went peacefully, surrounded by family and friends.
