Consolodation Coming to a Close

After his three day "bonus stay" at Hotel Hurley last week, we're glad to have Jack home. Jack will be going back in to the clinic Tuesday for his final treatment in the "consolidation" phase of chemotherapy. After that, the next step is to check where he is in terms of his minimal residual disease (MRD). Please join us in praying that the MRD would be less than 0.01%. As we have mentioned before, this would allow him to continue further phases of chemotherapy with his current "intermediate risk" assessment. They will test his bone marrow next week, and the results should be back to us at the beginning of October.
