Chemo In T-5 Days And Counting

Just got done at the doctor’s office and his blood work looks incredible, so good in fact he is ready to start chemo again next week.  His spinal fluid came back with a zero count as well and after reviewing under the microscope there was one cell that was questionable, but couldn’t be specifically designated as Leukemia.  This is an upgrade from last week when they defined one cell as Leukemia so we are heading in the right direction.  So now the plan going forward is that we will have the weekend at home together, Mason will have his blood test on Monday, and then on Tuesday morning we will go in for a bone marrow biopsy and another spinal tap and then be admitted into the hospital for eight days of chemotherapy.  The doctor has said that we will be heading home as soon as the chemo is complete so the recovery will be at home this time instead of at the hospital.  I am sure this will disappoint the nurses, but will make the team very happy.
