Michael finished his chemo today and is back to the suite. He tolerated the chemo pretty well. Each time gets a little harder, but he doesn't complain. Michael is trying to catch up on sleep he did not get in the hospital. He will get a shot tomorrow to help his white blood cells recover. Then the plan is to watch his blood counts over the next few weeks.
Michael will get a PET scan on November 17, and that will determine if more chemo or on with the Stem Cell Transplant.
Tomorrow, Melissa will come up to visit for the weekend. Mark is recovering well from his surgery. He saw the surgeon this week and all reports from the surgery were good.
This was a hard week as this was not what we were hoping and praying for, and it sounded like we were so close to the transplant, but he was not ready for it. It helps so much to know your thoughts and prayers are with us as we continue forward. Thank you for continuing to follow us on this journey.
Good thoughts and prayers (still) coming your way. Hang tough! ;-)
