I needed a few days before I could post my most recent news. My numbers were continuing to fall and I wasn’t feeling myself. Tuesday's bone biopsy showed that the leukemia has now spread to my marrow. Luckily is a low percentage of cells, but unfortunately more treatment needs to happen. Currently I will be infusing with a drug called Vidaza for 7 days. (Out patient in the clinic with relaxation drugs.) Then I take 3 weeks off and the start the process all over again. I will also be off my immunosuppression drug by the end of January to let my white cells fight at full force. After 3 months we’ll recheck the marrow and see if it is gone. Currently I am devastated by the news since everything was going so well. I am trying to be strong!! Send your good vibes and prayers my way. :)

Carla-as you know with cancer-it can't all go as hoped for and this is going to be just that...another step back- but look at how many steps forward you have made. It stinks, but I know you are as tough as they come-you have proven that and are my hero. You can and will do this. We all love you and your awesome family!
