On Monday, June 4th, Troy went to the doctor to find out why he was so uncomfortable after a night of restlessness. Once the blood tests were returned, the doctors ordered him to Desert Samaritan Hospital. The doctors have indicated that the most likely culprit is Leukemia. Troy has spent the last few nights at the hospital undergoing several tests. We have created this blog to keep all those that know and love Troy Boy up-to-date with the latest information as to his health.
Some tests that have been performed include taking bone marrow samples from his hip and extensive x-rays of his chest. As of now, the doctors are not 100% sure that it is Leukemia or a really bad infection. However, they do say that it is extremely likely. They also say that it is not a typical case and they are running further tests to be sure. There are several types of Leukemia and the tests will tell us what type, if any, he will have to face.
This is all the information that we have at this time. We will post any new information to this blog so that Chris and Heather can concentrate on being with Troy. Phone calls are appreciated, but please check this blog first or contact the Houskeepers at 480-832-1464 in lieu of contacting the Wendts directly.
Also, for those who would like to send anything to the hospital, we have been told that flowers and latex balloons are not allowed in the ICU. The only balloon they will accept is the Mylar type, which is the metallic kind.
Thank you for your prayers and concern.

This is Sarah Carter. I'm very sorry to hear that you have such a scary illness to deal with in your family, but I am glad that he will likely make a full recovery due to the specific nature of his diagnosis. That is what I will be hoping and praying for. Justin and I will be back in Mesa soon and if, by chance, there is anything that we could do to help any of you feel free to let me know.
