WEDNESDAY

Wednesday - We know where we're going now. 

Yesterday we had our now weekly --- it used to be 3 times a week --- labs done and visit with Dr. Singh. As you can see in the chart here, things are going very well. My own bone marrow is doing it's job and producing White Blood Cells, Hemoglobin and Platelets. The only one that is still a wee bit low is HGB but it's coming along so no worries. 

I hope you read my last post because that answers some of your questions. However, I asked Dr. Singh again about the possibility of having another round of chemo. He said, he was not recommending it because the increase in the likelihood of leukemia not returning was only a couple of points better and not worth it for the small benefit.

How am I feeling? As I mentioned before, I tire fairly quickly but am pretty much going through the day normally. That just means I need to sit down more. I am aware that I need to walk some every day whether it's at home or at Walmart or to a meeting. We are planning out our fall schedule which will include some trips and I'm really hoping to get back to into tennis in another few weeks. But, I'm just listening to my body. Tennis will be a gradual thing after not playing and working those muscles for almost 8 months. It will be fun to see how much muscle memory is still working.  

My next appointment is not until next Friday so I may or may not post something between now and then. 

Thanks for always thinking about us and praying and emailing and calling,

Bob
