Bone Marrow results

Its official.....the bone marrow results show only normal healthy cells!!! He has been in remission since the first treatment and has had normal bone marrows since that time....however, he hasn't had one since the end of the 3rd treatment which was a while ago....it blurs...Anyway....so this one caused some anxiety...but it remains clear. So...officially remains in remission....one last test will return in 2 weeks and that has to do with the cytogenetics of the leukemia cells (chromosomes). They will look at the bone marrow cells and look for any "markers" which may indicate any abnormalities. I'm sure it will be fine.

So...the other exciting thing was Zach lost his first tooth today!!!!! He was so excited (I, on the otherhand don't care for this part of childhood....icky)

So..besides the temperature of 27 below this morning.....things are great!!

I have to google something for Zach....

Thanks for the thoughts and prayers

Yeah!!!! We are so glad to hear the good news. I can't believe how cold it is there. Try to stay warm by running all around the house or by dancing in front of the fire.

P.S.-How much did the tooth fairy bring ($5, $10 or what)?
