Great news today June 27, 2012

A note as we drive home from l.a and the oncologist visit. Yesterday's MRI again shows no change and because of the up and down of the platelets and the results of the MRI, dr.green has declared the treatment to be complete at this time. We will follow up with another MRI in 2 months. In the meantime we will work on getting good exercise and getting back to a more normal state. Yeah!! Thank the Lord for answered prayers and to all of you for your continued prayers and support.

Quick update before I run (yah right - me! run??? - what a joke) to the kitchen to make some malt o meal for Chris's ever increasing appetite.  As of today, the platelets are back up to 103,000 so I will go to Fontana tomorrow and pick up the chemo.  Chris will start the 5 day dose again tomorrow.  Stay tuned and pray that we have no complications like we did the last time!
Love to you all.

Things remain pretty much the same with Chris over the last couple of days.  He runs a low grade fever everyday...not sure what that is all about.  Still with a lot of fatigue.  Waiting for next Tuesday when we will see if his platelets have risen above 100 and everything else remains unchanged.

May 1 is confirmed for my knee replacement procedure.  Anticipate 3 day hospital stay and first week at home the being the most pain.  Chris's sister, Patty will be here the first week and my parents will be here the following week.  We could probably use some meals again for the first couple of weeks.  Of course it would be up to all of you whether or not you could do that.

Get in touch closer to the actually dates and I can let you know what Chris is able to eat at that point.

Thanks everyone for your ongoing love and support.  It means so very much to us.

Chris, Janet, Sam, Ryan and Jon
