Hi Everyone,
I had a difficult night sleeping so I'm starting the day a bit late.
The weather here in NJ is rainy...not the most pleasant thing to see when looking out the window but I Enjoy seeing it none the less. Tomorrow, I go to see my Doctor to check on my blood counts. If they are rising at a rate he feels is appropriate I will most likely be going back into the hospital this weekend or early next week for my next round of chemotherapy. He will most likely also perform a bone marrow biopsy to check my blood cell "factory" for leukemic cells. The bone marrow creates the hemoglobin, platelets and white cells the are running through our arteries and veins. This is a layman's explanation but from I understand, the goal with the chemo treatments is to destroy most if not all of the blood cells in the bone marrow with the hope that when the "factory" starts creating new cells there will be ZERO leukemic cells.
I hope you have a Wonderful Day!
Thank You for your continued Thoughts and Prayers.
