THE BEST NEWS!!!

Great news!
Yesterday's bone marrow biopsy has come back CLEAR!!.
Just spoke with Margie and Robert and she sounds really great- her voice sounds strong, rested and ready for a transplant.

Once her numbers (red blood, white blood, platelet, and hematacrit) come back up to the numbers that she needs to leave the U, then she'll be back at the Hutch so with a new protocol as a Pre-Transplant patient!

Way to go mom!!!

She's clocking about 2 miles a day around the nurses station and reported that yesterday she lost virtually all of her hair whilst she was showering- good thing she's got that wardrobe of hair to put on the nut!

What wonderful news! I practically ran to the computer to share this with her family and friends!
