Preliminary Analysis
We just met with Dr. Faderl and got preliminary results from the latest bone marrow biopsy. The blast (cancer cell) count from the marrow (core) biopsy is below 5%. Final results will be out Friday and we will get certainty over whether or not that number is accurate. If it is, dad is in remission!!! Also, because dad's neutrophil count is above 500 (762 yesterday), we don't have to be hospitalized.
We are waiting to talk to a transplant specialist, probably tomorrow, and have been hounding the bone marrow registry to give us the results, 2 of dad's siblings' results have come back. It's quite funny the marrow registry is telling me that the doctor needs to confer the information along, as he didn't even set it up, we set all the marrow registration tests up. Anyway, we will post results when we get them.
Your prayers are working, please keep them up!!
