Day 16 - July 24, 2012
Reporting Error:
Well, let's take a step back, breathe and move forward. the docs were a little premature on the news last night. After complete analysis, the lab determined that there are 20% leukemia cells left when 5% is the goal. So I am now on chemo for five more days using the same chems as before. It turns out that most need the second round. After this, we proceed with the consolidation phase. Hell, I was going to be sitting here anyway, might as well be doing something. Sorry for the false reporting last night. The second round will fix this situation.
Cam, I will dance!
Wonderful visit from Amy, Ike, Jane, and Joyse today. You are all troopers!
