We had a good weekend and today was clinic and school. Mac gets a little better each day. His ANC moves up and down, but the general trend is up! If this treatment continues to go well, we may be able to avoid a Bone Marrow transplant in the future. They have found possible matches for Mac, but they have left it at that for now. If it becomes necessary, they will contact the donors and do the further testing necessary. But for now, we are all hoping this treatment will get Mac back to normal. So, while we are very thankful we made it through that big hurdle in Sept/Oct, our new prayers are for treatment #2 success. (We're kind of back to square one! In fact, I think I'm going to forget Sept/Oct even happened!!)
Thanks for checking in! I know a lot of you are having an "Ida" vacation. Stay safe!
Yay! Sounds like Mac is taking baby steps in the right direction. We will continue to pray for a positive trend & a full recovery.
ReplyDeleteBarb & Mo, we think of you every day. You're staying in our prayers. Stay strong & keep the faith!

i nkow the BMT is not the way you want things to go, but hearing that there is already a match is great! if that is the road that needs to be taken that is one obstacle that is already out of the way! i know that is one that could usually take quite along time!
ReplyDeletei am happy to hear his numbers are getting better everyday! that is one day closer to being home... river Ridge isnt the same without you guys!
