It was so nice to have a somewhat normal day at home yesterday. Just to see Jordan in his own bed or playing with his brother is a joy. Today we were back at the hospital for most of the day. It takes several weeks for the bone marrow to start producing blood again and the blood from his initial transfusions is dying off so he needed another transfusion today. We were somewhat discouraged to hear that his bone marrow biopsy from wed showed 35% blast cells (he needs to be under 5%). I was assured by the oncologist that this is very common and it doesn't change his prognosis or treatment. What it does mean is that he needs another biopsy next week. If that one is over 5% then they put him on a more intensive chemo regimen. He is also very sore from the wed biopsy. The pain and anemia have definately taken the wind out of his sails. Please pray that he would improve over the weekend and would have a good result on wednesdays biopsy. Thanks, Lara and Jim
