Bone Marrow Aspiration Scheduled for 3/19, Results to Follow

A week has passed since Chemo finished  and it's time to see if our efforts have paid off.  

A bone marrow aspiration will be performed Wednesday 3/19  and results will take about 2-3 days.  
The findings of this test will determine our near future for a transplant.  Double time on the prayers are much appreciated!  

If the findings are favorable, pre-conditioning treatment will begin next week (we think) for transplant.  This will probably be confirmed by the week end.

The list of side effects of the treatment as of yesterday now includes vomiting, which only happened that day.  Today, he experienced less nausea and actually had a pretty good day.  Because of the up and down nausea and sickness associated with the treatment, it's wise to call and see how he is feeling prior to making a trip down here.  Visiting is still discouraged.

He continues to receive transfusions and platelettes, daily.

Clif wanted me to personally convey, that God is listening to your prayers and he has great peace while he goes through this process, please keep them coming.

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
MATTHEW 6 : 34”
