Update # 120

One Year plus 9 days

Good Evening,

Things are happening quickly this week -- emails, phone calls, and faxes.  All blood work and tests results are in.  We received the best Christmas present --- the wonderful words "NO LEUKEMIA".  Everything looks good.  Only a couple of the other blood results were out of range but no one in StL is concerned about them.  And the bone density scan showed -- "NORMAL".  Two of Dr. DiPersio's nurses that have contacted us this week were both pleased.

We are most thankful that Jeff continues in remission.  His road is still long but we've reached this one-year hurdle and it was a big one.  We pray God continues to heal Jeff and let him someday finally reach that goal of "cured".  Your constant prayers support Jeff and us each and every step of the way.  Our thanks to you cannot be expressed enough.

The update on the 27th about Jeff's eye appointment should also be short and sweet.

Enjoy the blessings and miracles of this Christmas season.

love,

Marcia
