Friday's bone marrow biopsy came back as leukemia FREE! Now we have about 2 more weeks here to build back Ron's immunity, so he can go home. We are still hoping for May 1. Ron will have chemotherapy after his release from the hospital. That will involve periodic visits back to the U of M. There will be more details on his next stage of treatment tomorrow and in the following days. This "insurance chemo" will take care of stray cells if there are any. At this point they have started injections of neupogen which will boost his immunity system.We are celebrating with ice cream!
Love, Jan

I feel like our prayers are being answered. GREAT to hear the news. Thank God!!
ReplyDeleteJan, we were out of town so didn't get your message until today. Know that Ron, you and your whole family will be in our thoughts and prayers daily and that Ron will remain leukemia free. Will get some cards and 'stuff' today to send out. Love to you and Ron. Ann & Bob Shadburn
