The good, the bad, and the ugly...


the title to one of my favorite movies...and I used to work for a relative (cousin i think) of one of the actors...really salt of the earth good people.

The good....nope..got nothing..Brian has recurrent lymphoma..looks like stage 4 but we'll know for sure next week)...nothing good there...

The bad...well...chemotherapy protocol called ICE....(can't do CHOP like last time because chances are it will destroy his heart and he'll die of heart failure instead of cancer)(too much adriamycin )

The ugly...following ICE we'll transfer to a transplant hospital for a stem cell transplant (formally known as a bone marrow transplant) where he will spend 30-100 days in the hospital depending on the type of transplant he has.

Next week...PET scan, Bone Marrow sampling....
stay tuned to this channel for more not so exciting news,....

Miss D, Brian got the video game and really loves it, and it couldn't have come at a better time...he's going to send you an email later...Thanks so much Jen.
