97 days since diagnosis
Well it seems like we are on the home stretch. Jen had her heart scan today and starts round number3 of iv chemo tomorrow. 4 days of that and then we wait for her numbers to go way down and then back up. The doctor was impressed at how well she made it through round 2. After her numbers are good again she will move back to Camrose where she can get her blood work faxed from there back to the Uof A hospital. She will stay on her oral chemo for the next two years taking them for 2 weeks on and then 2 weeks off. She will get periodic bone marrow biopsies and will still have blood work on a regular basis. If after the 2 years and no more leukimic cells she will be considered in full remission. After 5 years she would be cancer free. Yah!!! She is in good spirits and looking forward to moving into her new basement suite and getting back to work. We so appreciate all the prayers and maybe even the docs that have made this all possible. Happy Easter to all. From the mom and brat daughter

That is great news, nice to be able to look forward to less hospital visits in the future. Kind of funny to be excited to get back to Camrose! (Just kidding)
