Clint's first post ever!!!

The past few months have been full of so many ups and downs, and ups and down, and crap and the unknown. How the heck are you suppose to know what to do and when to do it and if u can do it or should be doing it. So we got a bone marrow biopsy on Monday because they wanted to see if the Leukemia was still in the marrow. We got the results this morning, which they told us that there is about 4% of Leukemic cells or cells with those markers. So the plan is to start a treatment with a drug called Azacitidine or (Vidaza), which is a drug that becomes incorporated into DNA and changes the structure of the DNA to allow the genes that suppress growth of the leukemia cells to function. So now we have 7 days of this treatment which fortunately for us we should be able to do at American Fork Hospital. So the success rate is about 50% of this stuff having an effect on the leukemia, and each case is obviously different but people can have anywhere from months to around a year to possibly longer. So back to planning things and what and when and how to do, sure would be nice if we knew what was going to happen from day to day. We have our 10 year anniversary next week and would like to be able to do something for it but we will probably have to be around to see a doctor or something. Oh how crazy life is, but thanks for everyones love and support and understanding when we don't know what or when or why we are doing what we do. We hope to have many more good times with all of you. Life is still good and we are fighting for the best possible outcome from all of this crap, so thanks for all your hopes and prayers in our behalf.
