Just a quick bit of good news - we got the results of the bone marrow biopsy and the Leukemia cells have dropped to 30%-40% of my bone marrow. This is down from an estimated 50%-60% last time! So not so good news this morning but this has more than made up for it. I will get another treatment tomorrow but I'm not sure if they are going to change the dose or anything.

  3. Boy, the timing couldn't have been better since it sounds like you've been through the "wringer" over the last 48 hours! Hopefully, you'll become more comfortable tonight and get back to your old "new normal" or better!

  6. Thank you Lord!!! Praying for you as you get the new Hickman and for the clot to go completely away very quickly! Glad the mouth sores and toe are better. Busy week for you...continue to keep us posted knowing you are loved and prayed for.
    Verse for the day on my desk calendar is Hebrews 10:23. "He who has promised is faithful."

  7. Amy Lucy, Hello dear. Im gonna try this again but I aint had much luck at my blogs going through lately. Its great to hear your good news.Praise the Lord. I know its a relief to you and many others. We will continue to pray that things will continue in this direction and the numbers will continue to drop. And also for your new watchamajigger they are gonna put in your chest will go much smoother than the other watchamajiggers have.(is that proper english?). We are doing o.k. here except we are still hooping and of course me still blacking out from time to time. Christian is enjoying baseball and im enjoying him enjoying baseball. dont know if ive ever seen him this excited over being part of something but he certainly worked hard at it. You behave, unless you really dont want to, then just enjoy whatever your not bahaving at, and we will chat at you later. Lots of Love. CHRIS VESS
