We came into the clinic today and they told us that they want to get a whole week of arsenic before a break. They are worried about missing too many times like the beginning of the first session. Alyssa really doesn't want to be in the hospital on her birthday which is April 21st. The faster we can get the arsenic in the better. They also told us that we need to get 30 doses instead of 20.
I also talked to someone else about her bone marrow biopsy and they told me that they looked at 1 million cells and her leukemia cells were .02 so they are very confident that when this next dose of arsenic gets done they will be able to do the transplant from her. We will know more on the 28th of this month when we have a consultation with the doctor about her transplant.
Kirk told me this morning that he is putting the house on the market on Wednesday. Hopefully the house will sell fast so he can finally move out here and we can buy another house.
This is exciting and wonderful news. We're very glad to hear that Alyssa's counts are so low. The light is at the end of the tunnel and you're almost out of this.
ReplyDeleteWe look forward to having your family live here in Utah again.
Looking back over the past few months, I can see that everyone has been richly blessed. I'm confident and hopeful these blessings will continue.
You're in our prayers.
