Saw Dad this afternoon. He actually seemed to be a little "better". He didn't fall asleep once while we were there and had good color. His swelling is going down a little in his hands and feet. He is back on an antibiotic (or two) because he's consistently running a low grade temp, but they say that can be normal. The body has no immune system so it runs a low fever trying to fight anything that comes along.
The latest plan (and who knows? It seems to change daily) is that he'll finish his 28 days here and providing he is leukemia free after his bone marrow draw next Friday, will go home for "a few days" before starting another round of 28 days.
We won't know results from the bone marrow test Friday until the following Wednesday probably - so send good thoughts and prayers this week people!
Love ya!
