We had such a great report from Dr. Hadjenberg Thursday, we had to post a new blog. He said he couldn't say cure, because there IS no cure for Multiple Myeloma yet, but it is the best possible outcome. He also said there is no reason to think the bone marrow biopsy would not come back negative in July. So, I asked him what that meant. He said they would just check me every three months with blood work. No more chemo or radiation. No, I am not cured, but God has given me more time to spend with my family and friends and people who don't know Jesus yet.
I am at day +57 from transplant and doing great. I must still watch how many people I am around at a time and I of course wash my hands all the time. I also can't be around children who have recently had any vacination because it is a live virus. My immune system is now wiped clean, so I have to be very careful.
Thank you for all the prayers and cards and meals. My family and I could not have gotten through all this without you.
I am still waiting for my hair to grow back. It is only about 1/4 " long right now, but I have a great wig which makes me feel more normal out in public. I think I hate that the most.
The next update will probably be in July when I actualy HAVE the bone marrow biopsy.
Love to you all,
Ron and Jenny
