Sorry for just now seeing this, but there’s no update yet. The test results from the biopsy won’t be back until Monday. I’ll let y’all know something then. Thanks again for the continued prayers and support. We need it.

Ah, okay. I’ll look back then.
Continued good luck to you & Jaceson.

Good luck **faithfool**! I hope you’ve received good news already. My stepmother remains bedridden, and probably will until she gets a liver transplant, which is still at least three months away. I’m sick of hospitals and sickness as I’m sure you are. It’s a lesson to enjoy good health while you have it.

Sorry I don’t have anything to report yet. We were supposed to get the bone marrow biopsy report back Monday, but the doctor is on vacation and they say we’ll have to wait 2 more weeks. Sucks, I know.
Other than that, he’s been really tired and missed some work, but his blood levels have improved. Both are jobs have been crazy and just this week I put in my notice so I can be here full time to go to doctor’s appointments and stuff.
Thank you all for caring. It means so much to us. Hopefully I’ll have a good update soon.

Oh, and Greg Charles, I still am thinking of you both and have you in my prayers. I hope she doesn’t have to wait the whole time. ☹

Another 2 weeks? Ugh!
My thoughts are with you. I’m glad his blood levels are improving.

We lost my stepmother last night. I’ll be heading up to L.A. tonight to console my father. It’s a sad time, but she went peacefully, and it’s a relief that her long struggle is over.
**faithfool** , how’s your husband? For my stepmother, I think they just caught it way too late and your husband’s prognosis should be much, much better. I’m worried about that biopsy though, as I think others on this thread are. Please come back with an update when you can!

Greg Charles, I’m so very sorry. I’d been praying and now you have my utmost condolences. ☹
As to my husband, I apologize for not updating sooner, but I’ve been out of town (actually, I still am). He got his test results back last Friday and unfortunately, the results were inconclusive. Until we have them looked at by the specialists (which I’m not sure when his next appointments are), we won’t know if there’s more information to be gleaned from it.
He’s still very sick. He throws up constantly and today, we’re going to see if he needs to go back in to the hospital for more blood again. Other than that, I just don’t know much. I so appreciate y’all keeping us in your thoughts. This thread has really been a great support for us.
As always, I love all you guys. Thanks for everything.
