Update

For the third straight week, the plan was to try to test Jack's bone marrow. When Jack went in today, our hope was that his ANC would be significantly increased from the last two weeks so that he would actually be able to get the bone marrow test.

Well, the news today was kind of mixed. His ANC had not gone up at all, actually going down a few points. Despite this, the doctors decided it was necessary to proceed with the bone marrow test. We should get results back Friday, and are hoping and praying for an MRD of less than 0.01%.

  2. I pray every night for this special young man,and think of him during the day. God will do what is needed, in his own time. Praying he keeps giving you and family continued strength and love each day,and wraps Jack in his arms for continued protection and continues to give the doctors what they need.
