November 10, 2011

Came home from the hospital yesterday, this has been the best I have been since I started my chemo treatment. I have been almost a month without going to the Emergency Room. Also it has been over three weeks since my last blood transfusion something that has not taken place before. When I left the hospital yesterday they told me my blood levels are dropping and I will most likely need a transfusion within a week. But since the infections I have had since my second treatment have been cleared up it is amazing how much better I am actually doing. Finally I have a little energy I could not do anything for more than 20 minutes and I needed to rest or sleep. I am so thankful how much better I am feeling and was told I am doing great and it appears I am ahead of schedule in my treatment. I met another person who has the same cancer as I have and he only gets four days of chemo and is in stage four and I get eight days of chemo so I guess the duration of time I am getting my treatment is doing the job. Dr. Glenn told me if it is an aggressive cancer they treat it aggressively. So with all the prayers that have been offered I am still here and very thankful for all the love, support and service that has been given to both Jan and I.
