Sorry that it has been almost a week since I have posted. A lot has happened. In my last post I mentioned how terrible my dad was doing; well since then he has had a turn around!! His WBC count is now as of this morning up to 1.5!!!! He is set to go home tomorrow!!! WOW!! His new bone marrow is engrafting and this morning he had a bone marrow aspiration as is protocol every thirty days.... not really sure why though. He is feeling well and his spirits are high. He is a little bit weak and tired but that is definitely expected. On Mother's Day we went to Houston to see my mom and we spent some time with dad... he looked pretty good and his spirits were high! When he is released it will be difficult as well. He will come to MD Anderson every day for 4-6 hours to take blood and possibly get blood products..... every day since he has been in he has gotten whole blood, platelets, plasma or gamuglobin. This is normal.
So, THANK-YOU to all of you for your daily thoughts and prayers,,, they are working!
Please continue to pray for strength for my mom and dad, healing and remaining healthy!
God bless all of you!
