Susan, so thankful to hear that your evaluation will be next week. Waiting is so difficult. We can certainly understand your panic attacks, I couldn't imagine not having them. We will keep you in our prayers Susan! Please let us know how your appointment goes, hopefully it will be good news, you do need that.

Dean's oncologist is going to start him on Vidaza this Monday, along with labs everyday to keep an eye on his counts. If needed, Dean will also have transfusions during the week. Dean's counts are so low, his doctor wants to try to keep them stable during the treatment.

Today is labs, and transfusions tomorrow, but Dean is hopeful about starting Vidaza.

Sending you lots of love, hugs, faith, hope, prayers,

Patti and Dean

(((HUGS)))
