What a difference a restful night makes. Last night I moved to a new room (room 781) which will likely be home for the next few weeks. I finish my first round of chemo on 12/26 and then there is a waiting period to see how/if my marrow resets itself and the leukemia goes into remission. No one is guessing whether or if this will happen but my numbers are trending strong. The fun chemo stuff is starting to happen as well - mouth sores, a bit of nausea - but I cannot believe how quickly my medical team gets in front of issues (potential issues).
Emma will need to redecorate my new room with all the Christmas bling - the family will be here today and I cannot wait.
Love to all and Merry Christmas!
Maureen was admitted to Beth Israel Deaconess in Boston MA 12/16/14 with Acute Myloid Leukemia. She underwent two rounds of high intensity chemo followed by a transplant March 19, 2015. The leukemia was in remission for several months but returned late August '15. Since then Maureen has had several different types of treatment both as an inpatient and outpatient. Currently Maureen is in the hospital (10/17) receiving two different chemo regimens. She hopes to go home soon.
