Some Good News


Dr. V~ called to let us know that the Minimum Residual Disease measure was back from Johns-Hopkins. The MRD indicates the percentage of diseased cells left in Maggie's bone marrow after the initial or induction phase of chemotherapy. Less than 5 percent indicates remission.

Maggie's number: <0.01%

So far so good.

Gus, I just finished reading all the posts. We have your family on our prayer list at church. I will keep reading and praying. When I went through my cancer it helped to blog it out...and it helped my friends keep track of me too and lend support with kind words and emails. I hope you all have a blessed Christmas, and that 2011 brings more victories for you and your little soldier! God Bless you all!!!
