Dad Update 11-8-07

Dad met with his doctor yesterday. The doctor told him that he must have 9 lives. He will meet with the doctor again next Wednesday (the 14th). A bone marrow test will be done. If the bone marrow shows now signs of the cancer, he will not need the additional chemotherapy. They will be able to put him into the stem cell preparation instead. Please pray that there will be no signs of the cancer so he does not need to go through an additional chemotherapy. Please also pray that he can eat and gain weight. In addition, we are praying for his blood counts to go back up where they need to be. He also needs the strength to exercise. Thank you for your prayers and I will inform you of the results of the bone marrow test when it is received.
