Day +124

Back to Normal..............

After being off the new chemo drug for 1 week Bill's blood counts are ALL back in the normal range.  This is the very first time his Red, White and Platelets are all normal together at the same time!

Friday he will have his Rituxan chemo infusion which lasts after 4 hours.  We will also meet with his oncologist and work out a game plan for this other drug that did his immune system in.  Bill talked with him briefly about possibly lowering the dosage but he was going to conference with his transplant doctor and get his opinion.  It is always reassuring that we have 2 oncologists working together.  They always say "two heads are better than one".

Bill has been working from home and leary about making travel plans just yet!  We will see what Friday brings.

Molly leaves tomorrow to study in Italy for 4 months.  It will definately be a bitter sweet day!  We are so excited for her to experience the Italian culture she so dearly loves but we will sure miss seeing that smiling face and be sad she is so far away!  She is ready and very capable so I will just leave the rest in God's hands!

Will update again once I know our new drug plan!
