That's what his oncologist told us today. She was so happy with his counts today and said she wouldn't see us for 2 weeks. We go back for Procrit next Monday but no labs, then the next week he goes for labs, office visit and his 5th round of Vidaza. He looks and feels so much better. When he first heard the diagnosis back in June, he was ready to give up. He gave away his pickup to one of the daughters, forgave a loan to a granddaughter and now I am laughing at him telling him that next thing he will be wanting to buy a new truck. We have such a good time together and love to laugh. Tonight we went out with 20+ church friends to celebrate 4 birthdays. We were a rowdy bunch. We decided not to let anyone know we were from a church or to tell them we were from a church down the street!!! I think laughter is the best medicine and good friends and family are some of the best medicine available.
Thank you for being there for so many on this forum.
