My wife survives!
Oct. 2nd, 2017 08:56 amWell!
Had a bit meeting with my wife's doctor last week, and it turns out that things dramatically improved in two weeks. I had been wondering if I'd need to buy her a Christmas present this year, and now it looks like I will have to. :)
Bone marrow transplant in a shockingly brief 3 weeks - happily a donor (her *other* brother) is already there and seems healthy, although he flies into town next week for a quick physical at the hospital. We want to get her undergoing treatment as soon as possible, before the leukemia comes rushing back to kill her again.
Mind, she might die anyway. They're not kidding around this time - the really hard chemo and radiation treatments are on tap, and having a second one of these is chancy. But it's a fighting chance, so we're going forward with it.
