No Title

Talked to my Mom this morning.

I'll be straightforward, maybe it will come out easier.

Dad has blasts in his blood work - that means the leukemia is possibly back. They are running tests on the GVHD to see what level it is at, if any. If it is accute - or severe, the prognosis is dire. If it is something else causing my Dad's symptoms, they will begin backing off of his immune suppresant medications in the hopes that the donor cells will fight the leukemia off and anything else going on. The should have results on the outstanding tests Monday.

I think our goal right now is to get Dad home where he belongs - so we have to work on getting him strong enough to do that.

Please don't call right now, we are all processing this new information and my parents are, especially.

Thank you for your continued prayers, your continued faith, friendship and love.
