A new "Day 1" in the hospital is swiftly approaching our family. The latest blood results from Friday and today were very concerning. The doctor has moved up my Dad's bone marrow biopsy to tomorrow. We are all fairly certain the leukemia has returned. My Dad will then go to the doctor on Friday for results and a new game plan.
The original plan was for Dad to enter the hospital on May 10th and start a standard regimen of chemotherapy to start the process of a bone marrow transplant (May 17). Now, there is talk of doing one of two more intense chemo treatments which may include radiation. We'll learn more on Friday.
We've had an amazing month off from the roller coaster ups and downs - it has been a welcome break. Now that we are facing the second phase of treatment, we ask you to be even more vigilant in your prayers for our family. Please continue to ask for God's gift of healing and health for my Dad and all who suffer from illness. Thank you and God Bless.
