The Home Stretch

Well Dad is in the hospital for his final treatment. The doctor was a little hesitant to admit dad, but he will be on call this weekend so he could be aware of how things are going. They had to do a recovery bag first, so they won't be starting the chemo until tonight. Dad and mom have been a little concerned about dad's energy level, but the doctor said otherwise. He said if dad has the strenght and energy to fish and do a few other things, then he is doing very well. There is some patients who can't do much of anything. Over all the doctor is very happy with his progress. He also said that if dad's bone marrow biopsy hadn't been 0 cancer cells after round 5, than there wouldn't be a chance of 0 cancer cells after round 8. To hear this, made us very happy. Dad continues to enjoy all your calls and visits. Thank you for your continued love, support and prayers. As a family we feel it very much. Thank you.
